Influencer shows what it’s like to experience severe turbulence in first class
A social media influencer has revealed what it is like to experience turbulence on a first-class flight and we are pretty jealous. Cameron Biafore, who has 43,300 followers on TikTok, posted a video to the platform showing her "living her best life" while travelling with Emirates. And even though things started getting pretty bumpy on board, she clearly wasn't shaken. In a text overlay to the clip, she wrote: “POV: You are flying first class on Emirates for the first time and the whole flight experiences crazy turbulence but you are living your best life [...] drinking free flow Dom Perignon." @catching.cameron Living my best life #emirates #emiratescabincrew #emiratesairlines #dubai #uae #luxurylife #domperignon In a follow-up video, she showed herself dancing alone in her seat while continuing to sip bubbles, and in another she showed off the swanky food she was enjoying – namely caviar and crackers. Commenting on the video people shared their envy of the experience. One said: "Me in first class turbulence: Chiller than a cucumber. Me in economy turbulence: texting everyone I love my final goodbyes". Another said: "If I’m gonna die it better be in first class." And a third wrote: "The only way to do it."

TikToker reveals how to tell if your best friends 'secretly hate you'
A TikToker has revealed a sign someone in your life "secretly hates you", and it is quite random. Posting on the platform, Jaci Marie Smith said asking people if you should cut your long hair short is a sure way to find out if they have your best interests at heart. “If they’re like ‘yes…chop it, it would look so good on you,’ they hate you,” she claimed. “They’re praying on your downfall.” She added that if you want to test the theory further, you should ask your friend whether or not you should get bangs. “If they say yes, you need to cut them out of your life.” @jacimariesmith I’m telling u Her video attracted mixed opinions. Some agreed with her. "ACCURATE," one said. "This is so true," said another. But others thought she was overthinking it. "This is so not true!" one said. "Some people look so good with short hair and bangs!" Another said: "But I genuinely love short hair." Luckily for those with short hair and bangs, the TikToker clarified in the comments that she was just joking. Thank goodness for that...
