Anna Paul's ex bestie calls her 'manipulative and calculated' amidst claims she's scamming fans

“The Anna you guys love and idolise so much, never existed.”

The online drama world is heating up after popular influencer Anna Paul found herself at the center of some seriously damning social media posts by her ex-bestie.

Mikaela Testa - who happens to be the ex of Anna’s brother - just dropped some major tea about the famously sweet and caring social media superstar allegedly not being the person she portrays online.

ICYMI - Testa jumped on Instagram to out Paul for allegedly scamming her young audience into signing up to her OnlyFans for $10 for a chance to win $1000 AUD.

You’re basically running an illegal lottery and taking advantage of children. It’s gross.

Testa wrote in her post.

In a follow-up Insta story, Testa explained why she’s speaking up, claiming:

 Every time Anna pulls one of these cash grabs, my DMs are filled with hundreds of people asking me for funds/help with all sorts of devastating things.

If you thought that was all, Testa doubled down by posting a nearly 10-minute-long TikTok spilling details about their old friendship.

Some huge bombs were dropped, from alleged comments Paul has made about fans’ bodies to claims about lying over her family’s wealth.

Testa did NOT hold back.

“There’s a lot of things wrong with Anna Paul. It’s way easier to hate me for calling her out when she’s wrong than accepting that the Anna you guys love and idolise so much never existed,” Testa begins.

You don’t know her, you don’t know her like I know her.

Testa explains she’s speaking from her ‘real experience’ with Paul. She calls out how blindsided many people are by Paul and how she can play the kind and inclusive “facade” far too well. 

She alleges Paul is very “manipulative and calculated”. In the height of a body-positive movement, Testa recalls Paul greeting a plus-size fan, only to later make cruel comments behind her back, calling the fan “annoying and gross” and claiming that Paul didn’t want to hug her because she was “fat and sweaty”.

Testa added things like this were “a common occurrence”.

“Your fans mean nothing to you, just like the animals you buy and palm off to others,” Testa says, referencing Paul's ongoing habit of purchasing animals and then seemingly rehoming them.

The cash giveaways and money hunts Paul does “reek of superiority,” Testa adds.

She revisits the controversy over the "illegal lotteries”, alleging Paul of luring her predominantly underage fans to sign up for her OnlyFans to win cash prizes - Testa describes it as

twisted and weird

Hit by the harsh words of the law, Testa then claims:

If you charge an entry fee in order for somebody to win something, it's classed by law as a lottery in Australia.

Things get even messier when Testa opens up about some deep personal trauma involving Paul’s brother, Atis, which includes allegations of abuse and theft.

Honestly, I haven't seen this much tea since Veruca Salt claimed Paul's dad was homeless!

Anna has yet to tell her side of the story, but I know what we’re all thinking… We NEED to hear from Glen!
