Cheng Wing Yee, an influencer, is selling a jar of her own farts for $300 (£230).
Listen, we can all partake in a little side hustle here and there in order to supplement our income.
Maybe we rent out a spare room on Airbnb or sell our used clothing on eBay…
But one woman’s bizarre side hustle has taken the internet by storm.
Singaporean influencer Cheng Wing Yee is selling a jar of her own farts…
Cheng Wing Yee, also known as @kiaraakitty, has over 200,000 eager followers on her Instagram page.
And she’s decided to convert this loyal following into some cold hard cash.
No, she’s not negotiating brand deals or selling merch. Instead, she’s putting her bodily functions to good use.
Cheng Wing Yee is selling jars of her farts to her fans for a whopping $300.
Understandably, people have been taken aback by her scheme.
“2023: There’ll be no sicker year than me. 2024: Hold my jar of farts,” jokes one commenter.
“So this is how you make money on the internet… noted!” laughs another.
Another points out: “One person’s fart is another person’s treasure.”
“God I could fill a shop full! I bet no one would buy them though, God who’s sad enough to buy this as it is!” pens another.
@kiaraakitty has opened an entire webshop dedicated to some of the most bizarre influencer merch we’ve ever seen.
For $300, fans can buy the influencer’s worn underwear. And for Saltburn fans, her used bathwater is listed for sale at $500!
You can also enjoy a bargainous used bikini for just $160.
“Clothes and underwear will be packed in a special zip lock bag to maintain freshness and natural scent. Will be sending a proof via photo or video wearing the same garment,” the site promises.
But the star product has to be the $300 fart jar.
As an ad on her online shop reads: “Are you curious how your favourite streamer Kiaraakitty smells like? DON’T JUST IMAGINE IT, FEED YOUR CURIOSITY.”
But she warns potential buyers: “It may take some time to craft a scent jug so processing time may change without prior notice.”
She promises: “Every bottle is exclusively made by Kiaraakitty. A secret scent of clouds and signed and sealed by Kiaraa herself. Making one jug takes time as we treat each and every item as special and unique. Before shipping the package we will include a Certificate of Authentication for your copy. All customers are assured of quality and confidentiality.”
Sadly, it looks as though the fart jar is currently sold out online…
