JAKARTA - The name Claudia Conway is a topic of conversation on the internet. This relates to the auditions for the newest season of American Idol 2021 which will air Monday, February 15th.

Claudia Conway is a TikTok celebrity and son of Kelyanne Conway, a former adviser to Donald Trump and attorney George Conway. Since the first teaser audition was released, Claudia's face was seen in the clip.

She sang before the judges of American Idol 2021, namely Katy Perry, Lionel Richie, and Luke Bryan. With confidence, Claudia sang Rihanna's Love on the Brain and Adele's When We Were Young.

Claudia's first appearance on television went viral and was discussed by internet users. His figure on the internet is very outspoken, but he grew up in between his parents' political conflicts.

Claudia is very vocal about the anti Trump movement and the Black Lives Matter which she voices through her TikTok uploads. The father, George as the founder of the Lincoln Project also raised objections when Trump was re-elected.

"Growing up when your mom was Kellyanne Conway, it's really hard not to attribute yourself to that image, because when people look at me, they're like, 'Oh, that's Kellyanne Conway's kid, she sure likes Trump. The reality is, I don't. (at all)."

On the other hand, his mother, Kellyanne, was so supportive of Trump that even Trump placed her as a senior advisor in 2016. On one occasion, Trump responded to George's criticism by saying "rock cold loser & husband from hell." and Kellyanne defended Trump instead.

Claudia also considered that her parents' marriage had failed. In addition, in January 2021, Claudia said her mother was abusing her physically and mentally constantly. Through her TikTok account, Claudia shared a video where Kellyanne scolded and even hit her once.

Porn Revenge

Surprisingly, on Monday, January 25th, Twitter account Kellyanne shared a photo of Claudia naked via a fleets feature. This feature has similarities to Instagram Story. However, Claudia discovered this after a fan wrote via TikTok. Claudia felt scared and felt strange. "If this is a joke, please shut up. If not…. Bye. "

A few moments later, Claudia confirmed that the photo was true. But the photo never shared this photo with anyone. He assumed the mother took it secretly. Claudia did not hesitate to threaten Kellyane to go to prison because this case included revenge porn.

Before removing it, Claudia said, “I'm shaking, I don't know what to do. Nobody owns a single photo. I never sent it to anyone. So I'm assuming my mom took her photo against me one day and someone hijacked it. "

“My mother deserves to go to prison. This is not true. He's the only one who has. Just talking to my ex-girlfriend, this is crazy. "

But after that he was confirmed to audition for American Idol 2021 some time after fighting his mother. It is known that the police are currently investigating Kellyanne regarding cases of violence and the distribution of pornographic content.

It is not known why Kellyanne did this.

Appear Public

Claudia's American Idol 2021 audition teaser has been released since November 2020, but Claudia's audition was shown on February 15. Through her TikTok account, Claudia said she wasn't happy enough with the audition.

“Warning, that I am not happy with my idol audition. I was very nervous and sick so I gave everyone a headache. "

Citizens suspect this is simply a publicity stunt because when Claudia's problems with her mother were being discussed a lot, Claudia even appeared on an audition to sing. He replied that his audition was a personal wish and not anyone's pressure.

On the other hand, the audience feels that American Idol deliberately exploited the Claudia Conway case with her parents. Claudia also denied and said she had a long history of interest in the music industry.

hi also a lot of people think that my being on american idol is a publicity stunt but i can promise you it is not. i have been vocally trained and in music for most of my life and did this on my own merit :)

Exploitation

In the audition video that Claudia participated in, singer Katy Perry asked Claudia Conway if she was okay. "No, but yes," Claudia replied awkwardly.

Before appearing to sing, the footage shows her father, George, waiting for Claudia outside the studio. Then, there was Kellyanne who appeared via video call to support her child.

Kellyane and Claudia seem friendly and have no problems. Unlike the claims Claudia made via social media, Kellyane was very supportive and supported her son's audition even though he could not attend in person.

Reportedly, this audition was recorded last fall but judging from the broadcast that has just been held now, people can't help but be suspicious of the exploitation of American Idol. Moreover, the questions raised by the judges had nothing to do with his singing career.

"Is your mother still hugging you?" asked Perry. "I think well he loves me, I love him. Only, I think our relationship is a little ... a little fragile. Now I want to get out of controversy, out of drama, out of politics or whatever, and let people know that I'm a singer and this is what I want to do. "

After Claudia sang When We Were Young, Perry commented, "There is sadness there, because you lost your youth." Claudia Conway managed to get a ticket to the next step

Even though Perry made a reasonable comment, it was nothing new if Claudia's 'grief' and her family conflicts would be further exploited. Moreover, Claudia's audition was a way for the television media to improve Kellyanne's already negative image.

American Idol has not yet spoken out about the alleged exploitation.
