Influencers Anna Paul and Mikaela Testa have been in the midst of an online - and very public - spat, and here is exactly what's been going on.

If you have been active on TikTok over the past few weeks, it would have been hard to miss the current beef between influencers Anna Paul and Mikaela Testa.

As with most online drama, the two were actually once very good friends, and have known each other since they were teenagers.

But things have seemingly gone very south, and they haven't been keeping it quiet.

How did the drama between Mikaela Testa and Anna Paul start?

The pair, who were at one point the biggest Australian OnlyFans creators, have long been best friends, and they both influence for a living which sees them give daily insights into their lives to their primarily female TikTok following.

Mikaela began dating Anna's brother, Atis, for a number of years, but it appears things went pear-shaped when they decided to call quits on their relationship in 2023.

Despite her best friend dating her brother, which seemingly wasn't an issue for the two, it was actually Mikaela who first publicly spoke about the drama.

In a shock TikTok video, she accused Anna of hosting a 'gross' online giveaway with her 'teenage' audience, in which she was 'surprising' some new OnlyFans subscribers with a generous amount of cash.

The social media star claimed her following was 'largely underage', and branded it 'twisted and weird' behaviour to advertise such an X-rated giveaway to this crowd.

Speaking on TikTok, she said: "The Anna you guys love and idolise so much never existed."

Anna Paul's response to the allegations

Anna has since responded to the video, posting a clip of her own and saying: "The bullying that has festered and grown from this because it's a trend, is dangerous."

She went on to defend herself against allegations made by her former bestie, including the suggestion she had 'lied' about growing up without money.

Anna said: "It makes me feel broke when we can’t afford school uniforms. It makes me feel broke when I’m 11, when I’m 10, and all my friends can afford something and my parents can’t. It makes me feel broke when they say, ‘Oh, I don’t know how we’re going to afford rent next week'."

She also addressed the claim that her audience was underage.

"For anyone wondering over 93.8 per cent of my IG audience is 18+," she noted.

But the back-and-forth didn't stop there.

Mikaela has released a new episode of her Unsaid podcast, titled My Experience With The Paul Family.

What did Mikaela say in the podcast?

Despite the pushback from Anna, Mikaela continued with the sentiment that her giveaway was inappropriate.

In the podcast, she said: "It’s just wrong on so many levels, considering her following is just young single mothers and high school girls."

She also disputed that Anna ever suffered financially growing up.

The influencer claimed: "Anna wasn’t living in poverty period. It’s a sham. It’s a lie, it’s an exaggeration. [Anna’s] really rattling on and riding on this I’m broke thing so that she can excuse flexing on her."

But Mikaela's criticism didn't stop there.

She also called the OnlyFans creator out for fat shaming her ex-boyfriend, Glen Thompson.

She said: "Anna behind Glen’s back to me and my entire friend group would call Glen fat on the daily. She’d call him fat every single day. She’d fat-shame him with her mum."

So, it seems like the air is far from being cleared between these two.

Tyla has contacted both Anna and Mikaela for comment.
