Lilly Gaddis, a self-proclaimed "trad wife" and TikToker, has thanked the "Black community" for launching her career in "Conservative media" after her video using the N-word went viral.
After backlash spread online, Gaddis posted a non-apology video and doubled down on using the racial slur. Due to the controversial video, Gaddis lost her new job as a marketing and sales manager but still isn't apologetic.
The "trad wife" recently revealed that she's always been a "super conservative" and claims she's not afraid to say what people are scared to say.

Gaddis recently went viral on TikTok for a cooking video she posted where she used the N-word and referenced "dumb wh-res," "immigrants fresh off the boat looking for a green card," and "gold diggers."
The video is no longer available because TikTok suspended Gaddis' account, but it had millions of views before the suspension.
In the video, Gaddis shared her opinion on why men think that all women are "gold diggers."
She said, "You are getting the opinion from some dumb wh-res and immigrants fresh off the boat looking for a green card. Yes, they are probably gold diggers, but that is the exception — I am the rule."
Gaddis' video was particularly controversial because of her use of the N-word. She stated, "Everyone I know that is married right now is married to broke-a-s [N-word], and they don't care. We don't give a f-ck about money."

After heavy backlash for the video, Gaddis posted an apology video on X where she didn't seem apologetic.
In it, she admitted that the video "seems to have upset members of a certain community" and that the criticism made her do a "deep dive and a soul search," but she still doesn't care.
Gaddis also doubled down on using the N-word despite comments from hundreds of people telling her off. When one person commented that she should repeat the racial slur, Gaddis replied, "You heard me."
Since then, she's posted many more tweets showing that she's enjoying the negative attention from the videos in which she's used the slur again.
One tweet read, "Thanks, black community, for helping to launch my new career in conservative media! You all played your role well like the puppets you are."

Due to the heavy criticism for her viral videos and her refusal to stop using racial slurs, Gaddis lost her job as a marketing and sales manager.
She had just gotten the role at Rophe of the Carolinas, a home healthcare company for the elderly and disabled in Wilmington, NC.
According to the New York Post, Rophe of the Carolinas released a statement on her termination but did not explicitly name Gaddis in it.
In the statement, they confirmed that a specific "newly hired" employee was terminated due to "inflammatory remarks on social media that do not align with the values and beliefs of our company."
Gaddis later addressed the loss of her job due to the controversy with a seemingly sarcastic post on X.
It read, "Oh no I just got fired! #mob." In the comments, many people expressed their happiness at her losing the job and hoped that it would teach her a lesson.

On social media, several have taken aim at Gaddis for seemingly linking being conservative to using racial slurs after she thanked the "Black community" for her new career in "conservative media."
One X user said, "Surprising no one LillyGaddis confirms the key to being a successful conservative grifter is getting Trump supporters to pay you a nickel every time you say the N-word."
Another noted, "First LillyGaddis said, 'Getting me fired for using a word is sick and creepy behavior.' After that, she said, 'You played right into my plan.' Both things can't be true. Guess which time she's lying?"
"She'll be making 6 figures on Fox and friends in 3 months tops," a third person commented.
One more person wrote, "The way Fox News, OAN, Blaze, and Daily Wire gonna be fighting over who gets to hire her."

After her videos went viral, Gaddis was featured on the rightwing InfoWars show "War Room." During the interview, she revealed that she's always been "super conservative" with her opinions and beliefs. She also shared that she recently made the decision to post about "the stuff that we all think but a lot of us are too afraid to say out loud."
During that interview, Gaddis also shared more controversial opinions, like saying that "victimhood is very profitable" and "there is not a lot of racism in this country."
Gaddis has previously gone viral on TikTok for her controversial rants. In one video, she spoke about nerds in high school, calling them "the people we didn't hang out with" and how they'd become successful in life. She then claimed that these people have become the leaders making laws and ruining the world for "normies" like her.
