Apoorva Mukhija reveals overcoming the controversy
Upon being asked if she is completely over the trauma of the controversy, The Rebel Kid stated, "Of course, yes. I think I was over it while it was happening. I just needed to get back on the internet to feel myself again, and I did that. I think I have now sort of reached this place where hate comments don't affect me at all because I went through so much. I think I am glad I went through that."
The Traitors contestant continued, "It was great. I really needed it. I really needed a reality check that Instagram, comments, views are not everything. You are your own person irrespective of what the internet thinks about you."
India's Got Latent controversy began in February 2025, after which the creators who graced India's Got Latent episode were mocked for their unacceptable comments.
Workwise, Apoorva Mukhija's recent project The Traitors, has been the talk of the town. On the show, she is praised for her intelligence and witty comments. The Traitors premiered on June 12.

Miles Morales voice actor Shameik Moore's cryptic tweet sparked jealousy rumors after Hailee Steinfeld's engagement to Josh Allen

Shameik Moore's cryptic tweet shortly after Hailee Steinfeld and Josh Allen's engagement ignited a social media frenzy (Getty Images and Beau Society) Back in late 2024, Hollywood and the NFL collided in a whirlwind of romance and unexpected online drama. When actress Hailee Steinfeld and Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen announced their engagement on November 29, fans were overjoyed—but what followed was a surprising twist involving Spider-Verse star Shameik Moore . Shameik Moore's cryptic tweet ignites fan frenzy and romance rumors Hailee Steinfeld and Josh Allen shared identical Instagram posts featuring the date '11•22•2024' with an infinity symbol, marking a major milestone in their relationship that began in May 2023. Allen, at the time, was leading the Bills through a remarkable 10-2 season, making headlines both on and off the field. Meanwhile, Steinfeld—famous for roles in Hawkeye, Pitch Perfect, and Bumblebee—was enjoying yet another career high. While fans celebrated the engagement, it was Moore's cryptic tweet that diverted attention and sparked unexpected speculation. The Spider-Verse actor—who voices Miles Morales—posted: 'There's still more people to meet. More opportunities to come. And more chances to try. Live, learn, apply.' Though the post didn't mention names, the timing was enough to send social media into a frenzy. Many interpreted the message as a subtle reaction to Steinfeld's engagement.

One even compiled a lighthearted video of those clips, captioning it with the cheeky claim that Moore was 'shooting his shot. ' Shameik Moore defends himself against backlash and shuts down speculations As fans dug deeper into the subtext, Moore responded to the wave of speculation, visibly frustrated by the assumptions. 'Also crazy what y[']all decide to engage with when I post,' he wrote, before adding: 'Y[']all been twisting my words and fkin wit my name for years now.' Despite his clarifications, the drama added fuel to comparisons between Moore and other Spider-Man actors like Tobey Maguire , Andrew Garfield, and Tom Holland—all of whom famously dated their on-screen love interests.
