Okay. I feel so so so bad for lil peeps family and friends and wish them nothing but the best. But arzaylea..... is milking it... I understand that she’s going to be hurt bc I’m sure they left things on a see you later note then this happened but to say things like I don’t know how to do this without you? Like??? Idk I just think it’s disrespectful to his family and friends who have known him for years. She’s gonna post about him constantly now.

anon #2: Arz seems to be sensationalizing the death of peep. Cant she just keep it to herself since its a private matter between them? Dont need the whole world to know

I’m going to receive backlash for what I’m about to say, I’m positive of that, but I can’t stand to not voice my opinion. I should probably, at the very least, wait a little while longer if I’m going to make a post like this, but I just…can’t. I’ve been mute up until now because I’ve been trying to figure out how to go about addressing this, but now I’m speaking out because Arzaylea’s behavior these past couple of days has me feeling uneasy, and I hate how only a handful of people are seeing what I’m seeing….. (or hopefully people are seeing it but they’re just too afraid to say anything negative about Arzaylea since she’s just lost someone…)?

First things first: I’m in no way implying that Arzaylea isn’t going through hell right now. I can’t even begin to imagine how she or anyone else who was close to Lil Peep feels, and I’m sending love and thoughts and prayers their way, as we all should be. No one deserves this. How long you’ve known someone doesn’t reflect how much you they mean to you. Someone can become your entire world in less than a month.

But, that being said….

You’re both right – she’s milking this and sensationalizing his death. It’s fucked up on so many levels. She wants attention, and she’s going to get it…even if that means going to extremes and using her boyfriend’s death for her own benefit. That’s literally what she’s doing. I’d accuse her of being disrespectful, but that’s a huge understatement.

Of course I’m not going to go as far as to say that she’s happy Peep passed away or anything insane like that, but she is, without a doubt, relishing all the attention that she’s getting from what happened. Peep’s more famous now than he ever was when he was alive, and Arzaylea is making sure to instill it in everyone that she was who he was dating when he passed. Now that he’s gone, she’s pretty much trying to claim all of his fame as her own. Partly due to her own actions, she’s getting the same amount of attention that (if not even more than) she got when she was dating Luke. People are writing articles and labeling her as Peep’s heartbroken girlfriend, she’s gaining thousands of followers every hour, and it seems like she’s living for it and making sure to gain even more/keep her new followers by giving them what they followed her for – posts about Lil Peep. The way she’s handling this situation isn’t sitting right with me at all.

I understand that everyone deals with grief differently, but posting private texts on Instagram almost immediately after hearing of your boyfriend’s death? Finding it in you to automatically put the date of his death in your bio? Posting continuously about him to your thousands of followers only to turn around and say that the posts “aren’t for anyone else”? Posting pictures of yourself crying? I mean, come on. The fact that she’s doing all of that is just….bizarre.

Also, maybe this is crossing a line, but her publicly hinting that she’s going to commit suicide is getting really old. I know that some people do things like that as a cry for help, but everyone should know by now that she isn’t one of those people. She only plays the public suicide card when she wants attention and/or sympathy. I’ve seen several people who unfollowed her when she cheated on Luke say that they refollowed her after seeing her concerning tweets because they wanted to make sure she was okay and active, but what they don’t realize is that that’s exactly what she wants – and it’s working.

She shouldn’t feel right about gaining followers because of someone’s death, and she sure as hell shouldn’t be trying to gain more, but she obviously is. Like the first anon said, she’s going to post about this constantly now. She’ll milk it until she gets with someone else famous.

My heart is with her, but that doesn’t mean I’m not going to call her out for being so selfish and fame hungry….even at a devastating time like this. Before you call me insensitive and heartless, like I know a lot of you are going to do, please just stop and really think about what Arzaylea is doing and how twisted it is.
