Synopsis: Piper Rockelle is a massively popular YouTuber who rose to internet stardom staging elaborate pranks, competing in absurd challenges, and making soapy “crush content" with her Squad of carefully cast “friends.” Bad Influence goes behind the glitz and glamor to reveal Piper’s former Squad mates' harrowing stories of exploitation, cult-like manipulation, and abuse at the hands of Piper’s momager, Tiffany Smith. Through their stories, this three-part documentary series exposes the dark realities of social media fame and the fight to protect the next generation of creators from exploitation.
