Overview

The Llddis Broke Ass Niggas TikTok is a June 2024 viral video by TikToker @llddis (real name Lilly Gaddis, of Wilmington, North Carolina), a white woman filmed cooking in an apron while casually using the N-word as she ranted that everyone she knew was married to 'broke ass niggas' 1. The offhand delivery in a domestic setting made the racist rant especially shocking to viewers.

The video was reposted on X (Twitter) by user @riseydoux, where it went massively viral within 48 hours and turned the clip into a widely quoted flashpoint about casual racism 2. Instead of apologizing, Gaddis posted a defiant follow-up video invoking First Amendment rights, which drove a second wave of reactions and ended with her being fired within days 5.

On June 10th, Gaddis posted a defiant TikTok response video with a 'Fuck u' thumbnail, saying she did a 'deep dive' and a 'soul search' and still couldn't find a care 1. The clip cut to footage of Andrew Breitbart shouting 'War' and a Larry Flynt quote about First Amendment rights, and the mirror she posted to her X account @llddiiss pulled 4.2 million views and 14,000 likes in a day 5.

On June 11th, Gaddis' TikTok account was suspended, and her employer Rophe of the Carolinas announced her firing via an Instagram post from @ropheotc that noted the owners were of African-American and immigrant descent 4. A repost about the firing by X user @Blackkout__ pulled 21.3 million views and 153,000 likes in a day, and observers like @maliktheoracle worried the pile-on had 'just created a new right-wing influencer in front of our eyes in record time' 3.
