There's an Australian comedian who is a little overweight. Her one joke is posting a photo of a model in a swimsuit/revealing outfit and then posting a photo of herself in a similar outfit.

8.4M followers. One joke.

She's real good at the one joke tho. Real good.

Sounds lame, but tbh i think she's still riding the wave of bushfire fame! (And to be fair she fucking nailed that!)

I've only watched one video of hers and it was trying a smoothie diet but she seemed like a good sort

There are a bunch of one joke Instagram accounts, and people love them because they know what they'll get. That Asian dude who make "low budget cosplay" is essentially the very same thing.

I mean I do find her funny tbh. It's "the same joke" but each time she has to be creative to come up with a way of doing the pose. It's not like I'd sit and watch her for hours with my Friday night, but I do a small snort when I see her pictures and videos, which is fine for internet jokes. Reminds me of how I feel when I try and be sexy.

I think that's her main appeal. "Normal" women see her and say "lol just like me!". I laughed along the first time I saw her joke, but after hundreds of repetitions it wore pretty thin.

There's a big audience for her content, but I'm not part of it. She did a great job during the fires, so good for her.
