1. 24 hours offline with the VIPs of NYC TikTok

The article tagline reads "Audrey Peters and the VIP List girls are infamous for documenting their fabulous lives in Manhattan. But they’re in on the joke." But this choice take from further down the page makes me wonder; if this intentionally salty response to call two women in their 30's "old" is what arises from even the slightest, most justified criticism, how in on the joke can she be?

"When I ask her now what her reaction to the article was, she pauses. “You know what?” she says. “I loved it. I was like, these two 50-year-old women care so much about me that they’re willing to write all this? They may think I’m cheesy or stupid, but I’m doing something right.”
