Read our privacy policy A controversial TikTok challenge where people create mock-up mugshots of themselves has prompted criticism, with many people saying it glamourises domestic violence. In Kopf’s now-deleted photographs, the influencer posed with a fake bloodied nose alongside the caption “mugshot”. “It’s a Tik Tok trend going around where people post their ‘mugshots’ and has nothing to do with domestic violence whatsoever. “Despite the fact that hundreds of other influencers and artists have done something similar, I deleted the mugshot trend because it was never my intention to trigger anyone and it’s a waste of time trying to have an open discussion with people who hate me regardless,” he tweeted.
