Is controversial viral star Lil Tay in her K-pop era? After her fake death, the ‘youngest flexer of the century’ just released a new MV for ‘Sucker 4 Green’ where she flaunts an OTT lifestyle – again

- Lil Tay rose to fame when she was just 11 years old after posting controversial videos of herself flaunting luxury cars, mansions and cash – but was any of it hers to begin with?
- She went off the grid after achieving viral success in 2018, but came back into headlines this year, now 16, for a now-deleted death announcement on her Instagram, which was apparently hacked
Lil Tay, the controversial, foul-mouthed rapper and internet star who went viral in 2018 aged 11, has been catapulted back into the limelight in recent months for her “fake death” and new music video.
Since the teen shared her music video “Sucker 4 Green” on YouTube just over a week ago, it’s accumulated nearly five million views. Some of the lyrics include phrases like “Money, money, money; I just can’t look away from it; I want it, want it, want it.”

Those who are familiar with Lil Tay – aka Claire Hope – would already know that this viral personality isn’t afraid to flaunt her lavish lifestyle (or the appearance of a lavish lifestyle, at least).
Tay rose to fame around five years ago when videos of her bragging about how her “kitchen is bigger than your entire living room” and her “toilet costs more than your momma’s rent” broke the internet, per The Cut. The youngster also donned Gucci and Louis Vuitton belts strapped across her body.
So, who is the now 16-year-old exactly – and how did she get here?
