Control of the facts: Did Tyla follow the kiss of life after Julie’s racist birthday debacle?

Lately, Kiss of life It was heavily under fire for racist and appropriate behaviors during the julie member birthday.

Julie’s birthday clothing code was listed as “Hip-Hop vibrations of the old school”.

When the flow began, the members appeared in styles that describe racial stereotypes of blacks. They wore large gold chains, hats and hairstyles, including braids and Bantu knots.

The group also acted in a stereotyped way, with the dressing of Belle in clothing usually worn by the Latin subculture Cholo and defines itself as “Taco Belle”.

Tyla currently follows 431 people on her Instagram account and a current research shows that does not include any of the members or the official account of the kiss of life.

Looking at the statistics of his account, Tyla’s follower counting came down on April 1, but increased the next day. This could mean that he did not follow someone, but more likely that someone has deactivated and therefore reactivated their account.

The mention of Tyla following anyone in Kiss of Life was made for the first time on a fans account in February 2025. The account said that Natty was now followed by Tyla, however, this has been shown false. Another user shared that they and another account were behind the initial screenshot and said it was falsified.

Oomf and I simulated this screenshot as a month ago for the Natty X Charyeong X Tyla screen, and now everyone thinks that Tyla has not followed Natty when he never followed first place https://t.co/3lvw1tg5ofowowowowowow pic.twitter.com/pghcdhymsi

This shows that the accusations that Tyla has not followed the group are not true.
