Who Is Phonchanok Srisunaklua? Bat Soup Controversy Explained

Originally published on GlamourBuff.com

Thai YouTuber and teacher Phonchanok Srisunaklua gained notoriety after she started uploading videos to her YouTube channel, Gin Zap Bep Nua Nua (Eat spicy and tasty). According to reports, Srisunaklua lives in the Thai region of Sakon Nakhon.

The Youtuber has been arrested for five years after videoing herself devouring an entire bat in a bowl of soup.

The dead animals were floating in a mud-colored soup with cherry tomatoes in the 1-minute 40-second video she posted to her Gin Zap Bep Nua Nua YouTube account.

She was then seen tearing the animals apart and soaking them in a hot sauce called Nim Jam after describing the bats as “delicious” and comparing them to “eating raw meat.”

The food content maker can be seen holding up a full bat to the camera at one point and saying, “It has teeth,” before continuing to crunch on the bones and remarking, “The bones are soft.”

Angered viewers who were frightened by the potential health repercussions rapidly bombarded the “bat soup” video with complaints.

Veterinarian Pattaraphon Manee-on, director of the animal health management group at the Department of National Parks, Wildlife, and Plant Conservation was shocked when he saw the video.

The veterinarian emphasized that the occurrence should not occur in Thailand or anywhere else globally because it was a highly unsafe behavior, mainly because bats have a lot of pathogens.

Manee-on also claimed that simply touching saliva, blood, or skin is regarded as dangerous. In addition to the issue with the sickness in bats, he claimed that because bats are protected creatures, Phonchanok may have violated the Preservation and Protection and Wildlife Act, B.E. 2019.

He said, “Because the incident should not happen both in Thailand and around the world, it is very risky behavior, especially as bats have a lot of pathogens. There is no proof that the hot water temperature will actually kill the germs.”

Some specialists claimed that bats carry over 10,000 diseases that might spread to people and cause a new epidemic.

The YouTuber was recently detained for “crimes violating the Computer Crimes Act of 2007” and “possession of protected wildlife carcasses.”

After disputing the allegations, the woman later produced a second video in which she expressed her regret to “society, doctors, media, coworkers, family, and friends.” She also said she would stop eating bats.

Wilson received a similar 40-year sentence but with a different distribution—20 years in custody and an equal period on probation.

Forston and Russell, like their co-defendants, entered negotiated guilty pleas and received matching sentences of 40 years. In their cases, 20 years are to be served in custody, followed by an additional 20 years on probation.

Two young boys, 12-year-old Zyion Charles, and 15-year-old Cameron Jackson were left dead, and four other individuals were injured.

Zyion’s mother, Deerica Charles, spoke emotionally before the Atlanta City Council Public Safety Committee, revealing her desperate attempts to divert her son from a dangerous path of criminal behavior.

Despite her pleas to law enforcement, citing her son was involved in car break-ins, a prevalent form of street crime in Atlanta, she received little assistance. 

Deerica said, “I tried, y’all. I called the police office almost 30 times in the last two years, and they told me they can’t do nothing. I said he’s out and breaking into these folks’ cars, can you please get him off the street.”

On the other hand, Cameron’s family remembered him as a teenager with a passion for science, animals, cooking, and dirt bike riding. He had also been practicing boxing since the age of nine. 

Cameron’s mother, Tiffany Smith said, “Cameron has been a boxer since 9-years-old, and he was heading for a professional boxing career. He trained five days a week with a pro boxing coach.”

Additionally, according to 11Alive News, the shootout occurred on the 17th Street Bridge originated from two groups initially escorted off the Atlantic Station property due to unruly behavior and curfew violations.

Atlanta Police later confirmed their belief that the shooting was gang-related. However, Zyion’s family denied his involvement in any gang activity.

Lil Purk apologized after being arrested

Indie Artist Noelle Sucks Claims Olivia Rodrigo’s SNL Performance Is a Ripoff of Her Work

Noelle Sucks said, “I am pretty sure my art got stolen…”

Indie Artist Noelle Sucks Claims Olivia Rodrigo’s SNL Performance Is a Ripoff of Her Work

Indie artist Noelle Sucks has voiced serious concerns over potential plagiarism, asserting that Olivia Rodrigo‘s recent Saturday Night Live (SNL) performance has striking similarities to her own previous work.

Sucks took to Instagram to share her perspective, stating, “I am pretty sure my art got stolen and put on Saturday Night Live for Olivia Rodrigo’s most recent SNL performance. I just want to know what you guys think after I show you some facts.”

The base of her argument lies in a side-by-side comparison of her music video called ‘YOUR MOM CALLS ME’ from a few years ago with Rodrigo’s SNL performance, both centered around a “tea party gone wrong” concept that transitions from calm and pretty to angsty.

Sucks meticulously pointed out resemblances, emphasizing identical dance moves, such as cake smashing, sugar pouring, and hand gestures, performed by both herself and Rodrigo and their respective dance crews.

Notably, she also underscored the similarities in camerawork between the two videos, suggesting a potential replication or inspiration.

Furthermore, Sucks realized both she and Rodrigo’s creative director, Tarik Mikou, have a mutual friend who had publicly shared Sucks’ music on social media.

Sucks’ friend commented, “@noellesucks!!! This guy stole the Your Mom Calls Me music video concept from u.”

Additionally, her other friends, suspecting plagiarism, commented on Mikou’s Instagram accusing him of wrongdoing, which was later swiftly deleted.

Upon messaging her concerns on Mikou’s Instagram, Sucks faced no reply. Moreover, Mikou unfollowed their mutual connection and remained unresponsive to Sucks’s direct message on Instagram.

The controversy’s curiosity grew as fans joined the discussion and voiced their dissatisfaction over the alleged plagiarism. A fan remarked, “the unfollowing and limiting of the comments told me everything I needed to know.”

Another fan added, “the unfollowing and limiting of the comments told me everything I needed to know lmao.” “Wowww. I’ve seen other artist I know get ripped off by her team before. So messed up,” another comment read.

Brief bio on Noelle Sucks

Noelle Sucks emerges as a distinctive force in the music scene, defying easy categorization with a unique blend of indie, shoegaze, pop, and rock that creates an emotional soundscape, as per her official website

Born into a musically talented family, Noelle’s artistic journey took a pivotal turn after a life-altering brush with death at the age of 13 during a major surgery. 

Raised with deeply spiritual views by her parents, the absence of any heavenly visions during this near-death experience challenged and reshaped her long-held beliefs, prompting a profound transformation in her perspective on life.

The recovery period from her surgery, though sidelining her from traditional schooling, became a catalyst for Sucks’ creativity. During this time, she began conceptualizing music videos for existing songs and discovered her passion for editing homemade videos. 

The newfound interest propelled her towards film school, and eventually, a return to music was sparked by a significant breakup at the age of 23, inspiring her to create her first song. 

Describing her early musical endeavors as a process of “catching up,” the artist filled in the gaps from the years she spent immersed in film and other pursuits.

Her musical career took a significant turn with the release of her ‘Out of Orbit’ EP in 2022. Her ability to traverse difficult emotions through her music was demonstrated in the EP, which delved into the complexities of emotions resulting from a breakup with her friend group. 

Notably, her connections nurtured at Emo Nite, an event central to her personal and artistic growth, have come full circle with her signing to Emo Nite’s new label, Graveboy Records. 

The debut single ‘Ugly Ugly,’ released on September 22, 2023, stands as a significant milestone.
