On Friday, September 20, a viral death rumor about TikToker Kelsi Bergmann started making rounds on the internet. Following this, a lot of people wondered about after health and her current status. However, she later responded to the widely circulated reports on TikTok via a video and proved the rumor false.
Ghana Celebrities reported on September 21 that Bergmann is the owner of OM Crystal Jewelry in Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania, as well as a TikTok influencer. Kelsi came to stardom on TikTok under the moniker BigSexy81. She has more than 1.5 million followers on TikTok.
Moreover, according to Tribune, as a lesbian influencer, Kelsi is frequently forced to defend herself against hostile remarks. She is therefore well-known for her positive presence on the platform.
She also manages OM Crystal Jewelry, a handcrafted crystal bracelet company, alongside her mother Kelly Reese, in addition to her social media presence.
Kelsi Bergmann recently addressed her death rumors
Kelsi Bergmann graduated from Tussey Mountain High School in 2006. She's well-known as an influencer on TikTok. Her TikTok profile features a variety of stuff, from photos of her and her mother Kelly Reese having fun in their business to Kelsi's replies to rude and hurtful comments sent by social media users.
Her videos also focused on enlightening others about their crystals but most importantly love is what the dynamic mother-daughter team is all about.
Furthermore, according to a story published on August 6, 2021, in WTAJ, Kelsi had a conversation about her inspiration and her everyday decision to choose "love and light" over hate with Rebecca Petner of Studio 814.
Talking about her TikTok videos, Bergmann said,
“I started doing TikTok to make people happy — lift depression, anxiety, just help them through their days.”
She went on to say that she has heard cruel, hurtful remarks all of her life. She further said,
“Being 6’5” and not looking the ‘norm’ I’ve been getting hate the majority of my life so I use this platform to help educate and bring awareness to people that are struggling with being bullied online.”
However, on September 20, Friday, word spread that Bergmann had died. Little was known about what had truly happened, but rumor kept spreading over social media, worrying her fan base.
After that, her page was filled with comments from people wondering about her status, with some people being convinced that she had passed away. It all happened after another Pennsylvanian woman, named Kelci, died suddenly.
A dear friend of the influencer accidentally caused many to mistakenly think that Kelsi Bergmann had passed away when she posted heartfelt videos lamenting Kelci's passing. After this, the videos went viral.
Ghana Celebrities claimed on their September 21 report that along with videos, Kelsi Bergmann's upset friend, Debbie A, also uploaded a post on TikTok that read:
“How do you say goodbye to a piece of your heart? How do we go on never speaking to you again? How do we go on never hearing that amazing laugh. I miss you my friend. I love you my forever sister. Until we met again. #kelci.”
However, later in a video, Kelsi eventually addressed the claims and stated that she was still alive and well. She further clarified the confusion and reassured her fans that everything was fine.
Following this, Kelsi Bergmann didn’t say anything else about the matter.
