Kristi Cook, the creator behind Spill Sesh, has built one of the biggest “tea” communities with over 822K subscribers and nearly half a billion views on YouTube alone.
Once known for her anonymity, Kristi revealed her identity in The New York Times and has since expanded her influence with sharp, thoughtful commentary on pop culture and internet drama.
Now, the self-proclaimed Swiftie is spilling some tea on herself with Distractify.

Have you ever accidentally posted something on social media that you immediately had to delete? What was it?
KC: Oh, for sure!! I’ve recorded videos and posted them accidentally before, when I meant to put them in my drafts. The worst is when it’s me reacting or freaking out over something, and there’s no music behind it to make it less cringey.
If you could switch lives with any celebrity for a day, who would it be and why?
