TLDR Episode 5: IRL

Is this the real life... or is this just fantasy? Oh, the irony... that these lyrics sung before Jeynelle AKA Buffbaby88 was even born perfectly describes her struggle to straddle the divide between her real self and her TikTok persona. Jeynelle takes us on a journey through the exciting world of being an influencer, while showing us that vulnerability and kindness ultimately win the day.

Director Statement:
Flaming, criticising, trolling and name-calling - what you’ll witness are real-life comments that have been thrown at the profiles throughout their course of challenges and adversity through life. Like our profiles, we live in a social media world, where it’s easy to cast comments or judgement based on our own perceptions and experience of life. But who’s to say how one should be, what’s a better way to live, or what one should advocate for? TLDR is a series that seeks to promote social inclusiveness and cohesiveness by debunking the myths and stereotypes behind this group of unique individuals. We provide insight towards their deepest, most uncensored thoughts, and like a stream of consciousness, we uncover stories about their struggles, perspectives, and wildest dreams. Follow the unfiltered voices of a podcaster, a baker, a tattoo artist, a magician, and a Tik-Toker as we celebrate the Singaporean identity of the millennials and shake away hegemony.
