Social media star Miranda Derrick has responded to the Netflix documentary Dancing for the Devil after it suggested she is in a TikTok cult.
Derrick called the documentary “one-sided” and stated that she is “not a victim” in a statement made on her Instagram Stories on Tuesday.
The popular influencer first shared a quick clip thanking everyone for their support, before posting two slides of text where she stated she couldn’t address everything due to “pending litigation.”
In his statement, he denied claims that he is under the control of 7M Films and its founder, Robert Shinn, who is also the pastor of his church.
“I am not a victim, I am not harmed, I am not being abused,” she wrote.
Social media star Miranda Derrick has responded to the Netflix documentary Dancing for the Devil after it suggested she is in a TikTok cult.
He also stated that he does not condone abuse in any way, apparently in reference to the sexual assault allegations made against Shinn in the documentary.
Netflix’s explosive new docuseries sheds light on the group of prominent TikTok dancers believed to be trapped in a cult.
In 2022, Derrick’s parents released a heartbreaking video in which they claimed they had not spoken to their daughter in over a year and that she was being held against her will by a church posing as a management company.
They explained that the popular internet star had joined forces with a company called 7M Films in hopes of becoming a famous dancer in January 2021, but they later discovered that the management company had ties to a Christian sect led by controversial pastor Shinn. .
But Miranda says she simply asked her family for space so she could adjust to her new life after dedicating herself to Jesus Christ in 2020, something she says they have not respected.
In the clip she shared on Tuesday, Miranda says, “Thank you so much to everyone who has supported us during this time,” before explaining that she can’t go into “too much detail” due to “legal purposes.”
Then he states, “I just wanted to add a little bit of my side to the story.”
In his first slides of text, he writes: ‘Hi everyone, I just wanted to stop by and say that I’ve seen the documentary. I want to start by saying that I appreciate the concern that has been expressed for my well-being.’
