Following a dramatic rise in popularity, Vexbolts has seen his TikTok follower count plummet to an astonishing 3.2 million. This sharp decline comes after an unprecedented mass unfollowing event that captivated social media users.
In late December 2024, the TikTok community buzzed with speculation about a movement that aimed to “leave Vexbolts in 2024.”This initiative encouraged users to unfollow the popular creator known for the “let him cook”meme, aiming to diminish his relevance in the upcoming year. In response, Vexbolts produced a series of videos addressing the theme of being “left in 2024,”even collaborating with some of the most prominent figures on the internet.
YouTube sensation Jimmy ‘MrBeast’ Donaldson was among the final influencers to contribute to this viral conversation, intensifying the anticipation as the mass unfollowing commenced on December 31 at 11:59 PM EST.
Significant Drop in Vexbolts’ TikTok Followers
Throughout the final days of December, Vexbolts experienced a meteoric rise in his follower count, skyrocketing from approximately 1.5 million to over 8.5 million—a staggering increase of over seven million followers within just a few days. However, the countdown to the new year brought dramatic changes; as soon as the clock struck midnight, his follower count began to plummet. Within mere seconds, Vexbolts lost over a million followers, leading to a current total of just 3.2 million, a loss exceeding five million in just hours.
