She desperately wants to cushion her bank account.
A video of popular creator Quenlin Blackwell went viral after she posted a video last week of herself sobbing, in which she admitted she “accidentally” purchased a $100,000 couch.
“I’m about to f – – king throw up,” she said in the clip — which has been viewed almost 7 million times since she posted it on Oct. 5 — explaining she entered her card details as a “joke.”
“I almost crashed my car when I saw it,” she wailed in the clip. “If you have a million dollars, could you please donate? If you have a billion dollars can you let me borrow some please?”
However, on Thursday, the TikToker admitted it was all part of an elaborate prank.
In a video posted earlier in the week, Blackwell — who has almost 8 million followers on TikTok — said she’s going to start an OnlyFans account to pay for the pricey couch — although she added didn’t like the idea of “doing a job.”

She also claims she has expensive dental work to pay for. TikTok / @quenblackwellShe then tearfully explained she was going to set up an OnlyFans account to help pay for the expensive furniture.
“I don’t want to, but I’m going to have to,” she sobbed, adding she needed money for dental work and to replace one of her side mirrors on her car which might get repossessed.
This TikTok star claims she accidentally spent $100,000 on a couch, but her online fans are skeptical. TikTok / @quenblackwell“I’m about to throw up, because I know they didn’t refund me,” she added.
However, followers were dubious of her tearful admission and questioned the legitimacy of her tale.
“And the Oscar goes to…” the top comment on the video read.
“How do y’all not realize she’s joking,” another asked.
“You been taking acting classes huh,” joked another.

Viewers of the video joked in the comments that Blackwell must be in acting classes. Instagram / @quenblackwell“Nah the fact that your card didn’t decline instantly or freeze your account says a lot about how much money you really got though,” a commenter pointed out.
Many users have asked to see the six-figure couch, with Blackwell skirting around the question, fueling speculation that she’s making up the story for money or to make sure the video went viral.
But on Thursday, Blackwell copped to it all being a ruse, saying it was “worth it.”
“THIS COUCH WAS WORTH IT ALL,” she wrote on a photo of a stained and torn-up couch. “created by gorillían artist suqę mì dehqüe in 1958, The ‘Troll dé onlywind’ is an iconic piece from the caca movement of the late 50s. This particular work of dehqüe is a statement on the state of human society. I am so grateful and lucky to own this piece.”
“Thank you all for the help,” she added. “I now own art.”
