Instagram influencer Jessy Taylor fires back at online 'haters' as her second account is deleted

Instagram vlogger and influencer Jessy Taylor has released a new video responding to backlash to her recent online controversy.

Last week, Taylor had her Instagram account unceremoniously deleted by the platform. She wasn't given an explanation as to why. The account had over 113,000 followers.

Taylor posted a video sobbing about how she could never work a real 9-5 job. The response from viewers online was loud and many criticised her attitude towards the event.

In her new video uploaded to YouTube, Taylor accuses viewers of reporting her account. She claims she can’t go back to her original job as a sex worker, stating in her video: “the reason that I did prostitution was to have a nice roof over my head".

Taylor continues to rant in her video about a number of things, including saying at one point that she is also a rapper, claiming to release a music video very soon. She continued to make direct statements at her perceived haters for the rest of the video.

Third time's a charm 

The blogger had set up another Instagram account over the weekend, but the platform has subsequently deleted that one too. Instagram is yet to comment on why Taylor's content being removed. 

"I feel like Instagram is deliberately trying to shut me down," Taylor said in another video, uploaded to her channel on Saturday.

"I'm being bullied for no reason at all. This is very unfair. I've done nothing but be a user on the platform."
