In 2019, the 22-year-old grew more fame following the infamous University of Southern California college admissions bribery scandal. Since then, it is not surprising that she constantly gets DMs from fans, critics, and celebrities.

On one occasion, "Harry Potter" co-star Tom Felton messaged her privately. However, she did not respond to the text for a reason. Read on to get more details.

Olivia Jade Left Tom Felton On Read

Jade's work on her channel has garnered a lot of fan love and a largely sized cult following. Unsurprisingly, some celebrities have shown interest in her posts and have often reached out to commend her.

The YouTuber once revealed that Tom Felton, who starred in the classic "Harry Potter" franchise as Draco Malfoy is one of the many superstars that admire her work.

However, when Felton reached out to share his views, Jade did not respond to his message.

The actor had texted her, "Hello mate. Dig your work," and added a snake emoji. The emoji referenced the symbol of the Slytherin House in the movie series of which Felton's character, Draco, is their most prominent member.

However, Jade did not understand the inside joke and refrained from replying to his DM.

"I haven't seen the Harry Potter movies, so I didn't get the joke," she shared on E! 's "Down in the DMs." "I didn't respond, and now I just exposed that I have seen it, and I didn't respond, so that is also rude of me. I think most people would probably understand and be excited by it. I need to watch more movies."

Olivia Jade Reads Her DMs Many Times In A Week

Although she did not reply to Felton's message, the influencer admitted she did not make a habit of not responding to her DMs.

"I read my DMs way too often," she revealed. "I probably read my DMs, like, four times a week, five times a week maybe. I should not be reading my DMs that much."

The YouTuber also revealed that she tries to answer questions that pop up in the messages from fans.

"I try and respond to questions, especially if I know the answer," she added. "Like, 'Where are those shoes from?' I'll hit somebody back and be like, 'They are from this place.' I'm not the best at responding, but I'm really good at reading them."

Olivia Jade Had Walked Off The Stage After Her' Dancing With The Stars' Elimination

Coincidentally, Jade had a taste of her own medicine from Derek Hough, a judge on "Dancing With the Stars."

The show is a reality series that featured the influencer and her dance partner Val Chmerkovskiy on its 30th installment, which aired earlier this year. They were the eighth couple to receive the cut, ultimately finishing in 8th place.

Jade revealed that after the elimination process, she walked away without acknowledging the judges. The act was in no way done out of spite but due to their unawareness of the procedures.

"Val [Chmerkovskiy, my partner] and I didn't know that we were supposed to walk off stage when we got eliminated and then come back on, say a final word, say goodbye," she said. "So we just walked off stage and never returned."

Derek Hough Has Not Answered Olivia Jade's DM

Since she could not say her final words to the judges, particularly Hough, Jade entered his DM and dropped her gratitude in words hoping he would see it and respond.

"I didn't get a chance to say bye, but I just wanted to say a huge thank you for being so kind this season. I was a fan before and a bigger fan now," she wrote. It was so nice to meet you! I'll see you guys soon."

Sadly, the choreographer did not reply to the message. Jade further stated that she could not tell if Hough had seen the write-up and if she would ever get feedback. From the look of things, one can only assume that the ballroom dancer barely chats through his DMs.
