Jessy Taylor, from Florida, filmed herself having a meltdown after her social media page was taken down and she claimed she was “nothing without her followers”.

The 21-year-old told Insider: “I felt like it was a homicide. Like somebody murdered me and then went online to say ‘I murdered this girl’.

“I called the police actually and told them about this, and they said you can’t compare a murder to this and I was like no that’s exactly what it felt like.”

Jessy, who mainly posted shots of herself in bikinis, claims that she needs her Instagram page to finance her lifestyle.

She said she had made $500,000 from the account which had over 100,000 followers.

“You go to the Gucci store a few times, you pay a couple of months of rent, I’m not rich like I used to be,” she continued.

Jessy admitted that having a big following made her feel good about herself.

She said: “I turned into a mean person when I had my account. If people would try it with me, I’d use it to say ‘You need to understand who the f*** you’re talking to.”

Jessy had been editing a YouTube video for her 3,900 followers when she spotted her Instagram account had disappeared.

“I know people like to see me be down and be like them, and the 90%, the people who work 9 til 5, that is not me, I am in LA to not be like that.

“I’ve worked so f***ing hard to get to where I’m at and for that to get taken from me is the worst feeling in the world.”

It is not clear why Jessy’s Instagram account was deleted but she asked others to “imagine themselves in her shoes”.

Jessy continued: “I was a f***ing prostitute, I don’t do that anymore because I make all my money online.

"I don’t want to go back to that life.

“What some of you guys have to realise is I have no skills, I’m 20 f***ing thousand dollars in debt from college so I can’t even go to college if I wanted to.

“I used to work at f***ing McDonalds before I did YouTube, Instagram before I had 100,000 followers, before I had everything in my life I was a f***ing loser.

“I’m not saying there’s anything wrong with working at McDonalds because I worked there but I don’t want to go back to that life.”
