Lorraine Kelly, a British TV presenter, has faced backlash from the ASMR community after she mocked ASMR on her talk show.





After her exaggerated impersonation of ASMR, she rolls her eyes and says:





‘Have you ever heard the most ridiculous thing in all your life? What’s going on?’





Come on Lorraine, you’re a bit late to the game now.





We don’t have to take ourselves too seriously as a community either – humour is great for dissecting social issues, but this wasn’t intelligent comedy.





Lorraine Kelly has a large audience that has grown since 2010:

And her large audience has seen her completely dismiss ASMR - she’s keeping the stigma alive!





This comment says it all...





Think of the barriers this clip has created for people who are still cautious about clicking on an ASMR video because they are scared of being judged by others who don’t understand this incredible sensation.





Obviously, the ASMR community has voiced their opinions too:





It’s not in the spirit of the ASMR community to leave Lorraine Kelly nasty comments either, I’ve seen a few horrible comments left by ASMR viewers and that’s not cool.

Let’s show her how amazing this community is, what we do to help many people and their well-being and maybe she will investigate ASMR further before she discusses it with the public again.
