Aussie influencer slammed as tone deaf for complaining about everything in LA while riots break out in the city: 'You not been on the news?'
Controversial influencer Kat Clark has been slammed for complaining about living in Los Angeles while anti-ICE protests rage through the city. As locals deal with a fourth day of riots in California, Marines and the National Guard have hit the streets to 'address the lawlessness' of protesters. However, Clark appeared oblivious to the chaos on Sunday as she uploaded a vlog about her daily inconveniences in LA. 'Australians and Americans may speak the same language, but today proved we live completely different lives. Firstly, why is there no good coffee in LA?' she began. 'They also take security very seriously,' she added as she showed footage of store fronts locked up with security gates.

Clark, who relocated to LA from the Gold Coast with her husband Jonathan and their daughter Deja, 14, went on to complain about people not using towels at the gym. 'These are just the small things I've noticed since moving here. Wait until you see what else I learned,' she continued. 'They love their ranch. They've got litres of it. They even have tuna flavoured bacon ranch. That sounds gross,' Clark added as she visited a Ralphs grocery store. 'I'm not going to lie, they have a lot of questionable things here, but they also have a lot of things that just make sense.' Followers flocked to the comments of the video to slam Clark for appearing to ignore the riots and military presence throughout LA. 'U not been on the news?' one person wrote. 'Kat completely oblivious to what's happen in LA right now,' another added. A third wrote: 'Are u going to talk about anything that's happening in LA atm?' 'Y'all just pretending LA isn't a disaster rn,' said yet another. Clark responded to the comments, explaining she was was aware of what has been happening in the city. 'I hear you and I've been following everything closely,' she said. 'As someone on a visa, I have to be mindful about what I say, but please know I'm listening, learning and supporting where I can.' Fans then jumped in to offer their support to Clark. 'What is she supposed to do about it?' one person wrote. Another user said: 'She just moved there let her enjoy for like a second.' 'It's her life why does she have to do everything to satisfy u guys?' commented someone else. Daily Mail Australia has reached out to Clark for comment. 700 Marines and 2,100 National Guard members have hit the LA streets to 'address the lawlessness' in California, according to President Donald Trump. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said the military will stay in the city for 60 days to combat violent 'rioters, looters and thugs' during the immigration riots. The chaos began on Friday when anti-U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement protesters seized on a handful of police raids across LA, taking to the streets to burn cars and march against what they say are unfair deportations. Local business owners are outraged as destructive looters continue to target downtown stores as the protests continue on. Trump on Tuesday flirted with invoking the Insurrection Act as he tore into 'bad people' and 'animals' he said brought the city to the verge of burning down. The president defended his decision to send 700 Marines as well as the California National Guard to LA, and brushed off California Gov. Gavin Newsom's claim the deployment inflamed the situation. And he would not rule out use of an authority to deploy military forces under his control to put down disturbances if he sees fit. 'If there's an insurrection, I would certainly invoke it. We'll see. But I can tell you, last night was terrible. The night before that was terrible,' Trump said. 'If we didn't send in the national guard quickly, right now, Los Angeles would be burning to the ground,' Trump told reporters in an impromptu Oval Office meeting with members of his team.

A controversial Gold Coast influencer has copped backlash from her followers after complaining about the cost of living in the US. Kat Clark has relocated to America with her husband Jonathan and their 14-year-old daughter Deja and the family made the big move last week. After just a week in the States, she has moaned about the cost of groceries after splashing out on expensive phones, clothes and a manicure. Kat began her rant by saying she was nervous about finding a rental home in the US after the family had ben living out of an AirBnB for two weeks. She said she and her husband had a place lined up, but decided they didn't like the lavish pad after they saw it in person. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. 'But then I started to freak out even more because of the cost of living in America. I thought Australia was bad,' she added. Kat went on to show her followers a strawberry punnet that retails for $19.99 from expensive grocery chain Erewhon. 'We also have to buy a new car, new furniture, literally everything,' Kat added. But moments later, Kat showed her and her teenage daughter Deja going clothes shopping. 'I know what you're thinking, I was just complaining about the cost of living, why the hell am I going shopping?' she said. 'We got some news that we just couldn't say no to. You know how we moved to American for more opportunities? 'Well Deja was invited on her first brand trip to the Bahamas. I didn't want her to miss out. That's the whole reason why we moved over here.' Just days later, Kat was back on TikTok with another video complaining she was struggling to find a new 'nail lady' as she treated herself to a manicure and pedicure. She then revealed she and her husband Jonathan had bought two new iPhones for their Australian sim cards, only to realise the mobiles only take digital e-sims. 'Basically, we have two phones that we're literally never going to use,' she said. Days later, Kat was uploading content of her lavish brand trip in the Bahamas with her daughter. Several of Kat's followers slammed the influencer for complaining about the cost of living while enjoying a luxury trip. 'Wow, absolutely insufferable. They VOLUNTARILY decided to move to the US at one of the worst times imaginable and basically did no research,' one person wrote on Reddit. 'Now she's complaining about the prices of groceries there, finding a nail salon etc. meanwhile buying bags and bags of expensive shopping, two new iPhones (that they realised they can't use) and going on a "holiday" to the Bahamas literally just after moving there.' 'Is she rage baiting? What the actual f*** is wrong with these people?' they finished. Another Reddit user agreed, saying: 'I hadn't seen it. I went to look and see I wish I didn't see it so disgusting. 'I barely eat each week due to the crazy cost of things in Australia and she's off trying to find a nail salon like hello and then burns money on phones.' 'Like who the fk moves to the other side of the world with no plan?' added a third. 'At this point it has to be rage bait. She knows what will make people comment/talk about her and she's using it to her full advantage,' said someone else. 'At the end of the day she puts out content, and anything can be content.'

Remember to get health insurance,' one person said. 'Going to LA in search of experience, fame and money but you become a whole new different type of influencer. No longer a down to earth relatable mum really. Hope it goes well but doubt I will find the content to my liking anymore,' another said. 'Scary times to be making the move,' a third agreed while one added: 'As someone living in America I highly recommend you don't move here.' 'At a time where Australians and those around the world are advised to steer clear of the US, you decide to move there. Best of luck!' another said. 'You honestly can't even compare US and Australia. Definitely strange you would leave such a safe country,' one wrote. However one person commented: 'SO EXCITED FOR YOUUU!!!' 'We're all so happy for you. But sure will miss you a lot!!!' another said as one added: 'Congratulations guys! We going to miss you here.' 'You can always come back home if needed❤️ So proud of you!!' another commented.

Oh my goodness, I'm so scared about telling you.' 'Australia is a beautiful country. We have free healthcare, the best beaches, amazing people. And if I'm being completely honest, there's a huge part of me that doesn't want to go,' she said. 'But there's also a part of me that's feeling curious … and I don't want to have any regrets.' She explained she's had some opportunities in America and is 'going to give it a go' but admitted she is 'scared'. 'I really hope you guys understand, because if I'm being honest, I need all the support I can get. This is scary,' Kat told her followers.
