Erika Kirk has recently been observed displaying a more uninhibited side in an audition tape for “The Amazing Race” that has come to light.
This footage, one among many resurfaced since her husband Charlie Kirk‘s passing, has drawn criticism from netizens who accused her of seeking attention and being duplicitous.
Erika Kirk’s Audition Tape Reveals a Different Side
Since her husband’s tragic assassination last September, Erika has largely portrayed a conventional wife persona. However, a newly revealed video from 2014 featuring her and her then-boyfriend, J.T. Massey, depicts an alternative image that suggests a desire for fame.
In this audition clip for “The Amazing Race,” Erika is seen acting less conservatively, complimenting her boyfriend while playfully adjusting his shirt. Her responses included laughter, and a cheeky remark about how “sex sells,” even mentioning it was contrary to their beliefs.
Public Backlash and Accusations of Seeking Fame
The video ignited a flurry of online comments branding Erika as fame-hungry. Critics pointed out her long pursuit of celebrity status and highlighted the dissonance between her past behavior and her current ultra-religious image.
While some defended her by citing the possibility of change and redemption, others continued to call her actions into question, suggesting she was consistently performing for an audience.
Erika Kirk’s Response to Criticism
Despite the surge of critiques since taking over as CEO of Turning Point USA, Erika has indicated she won’t be addressing every attack. In an interview, she remarked that responding to every accusation would distract from her work. Instead, she expressed that criticism only strengthens her resolve.
Furthermore, Erika has publicly called for an end to conspiracy theories surrounding Charlie’s death, urging commentators to refrain from perpetuating wild speculations, especially in light of her husband’s legacy.
