Bryce Hall: TikToker Sparks Outrage Over Maskless Birthday Bash, Defies Health Orders

TikToker and YouTube personality Bryce Hall is facing backlash after videos of his 21st birthday emerged over the weekend — showing a packed house party in spite of California health orders.

Hall, boasting 12.8 million TikTok followers, was seen celebrating Aug. 14 at the Hollywood Hills TikToker Mansion the Sway House, in which roughly 100 people were filmed without masks and social distancing, Insider reported.

A person who attended the party but wished to remain anonymous told Forbes that at least 75 people attended the 21-year-old’s gathering, including around 20 strippers hired for the event. All guests used hand sanitizer before entering, the source added.

Among the attendees were several notable TikTokers and influencers, including Harry Jowsey from Too Hot to Handle, TMZ added.

The Los Angeles Police Department around 4 a.m. shut down the Sway party for violating the city’s social distancing guidelines, Insider said. Los Angeles County currently has the highest number of confirmed coronavirus cases in California, with a total of roughly 219,000, according to state data.

Heavy has reached out to Hall for comment and is awaiting a response.

In a 25-tweet thread, YouTube personality Def Noodles documented the birthday bash to his more than 21,000 followers.

The influencer’s footage captured scores of guests without masks standing shoulder-to-shoulder inside and outside of the house. Several videos depicted Hall seated in the middle of a crowded room while both male and female strippers danced on him.

In one video, Hall is seen on top of a kitchen counter, expressing, “I can legally buy alcohol now!”

Hall’s celebration was at least the mansion’s third party in the last four days, Def Noodles told Insider.

Despite widespread criticism and local health orders in place, influencer parties akin to Hall’s are becoming increasingly common.

YouTube star Jake Paul has found himself in the hot seat numerous times over the last few weeks for hosting parties that ignore social distancing guidelines, Insider reported.

The influencer, who has amassed over 3 million followers on Twitter, told the outlet last month that he has no intentions to stop partying.

“No one has answers, our leadership is failing us, and everyone kind of just doesn’t know what to do. But I personally am not the type of person who’s gonna sit around and not live my life,” Paul expressed.
