TikToker Haley Kalil, who goes by HaleyyBaylee online, apologized for posting a video of herself in a Marie Antoinette-inspired dress at the 2024 Met Gala while mouthing a viral audio clip from a 2006 film in which the French queen is portrayed as saying, "Let them eat cake."
The post sparked the movement
#blockout2024, which aims to cut off celebrities' and influencers' online power and digital revenue to pressure them to use their platform to speak about the war in Gaza.
