3-part docuseries - Netflix
Premieres April 9
Role: Associate Editor
Directed by Jenna Rosher and Kief Davidson
Piper Rockelle is a massively popular young social media superstar with more than 25 million followers. She films pranks, challenges, and “crush content” with her friend group, The Squad. For aspiring tween influencers, joining them could unlock hundreds of thousands of followers and big-budget brand deals. But a bombshell lawsuit by former Squad members and their families could be the end of her multimillion-dollar empire.
Through deeply affecting firsthand accounts from the teens and their families, Bad Influence: The Dark Side of Kidfluencing details the explosive claims of exploitation and abuse made against Piper’s momager, Tiffany. In the process, the docuseries explores the increasingly blurred line between parent and producer in the digital age and the dangers of the unregulated world of kidfluencing.
