Reality television personality Jessika Power has addressed a viral video that purportedly shows her smoking from a glass pipe, asserting that the clip is inauthentic.
The 12-second video, shared by Outlaw Media, depicts a woman in profile inhaling from a pipe, with the media company claiming onlookers believe the substance was methamphetamine. The video is said to have been filmed recently and shows the woman inside a private residence.
Power responded to the video in the comments section of her Instagram page, stating, "I don't even know how it's getting attention considering it doesn't look like me and (is) clearly a fake video." Several social media users also expressed skepticism about the video's authenticity.
This incident follows a period of health concerns for Power. Late last year, she was hospitalized with stomach pains and underwent tests. At the time, she shared images of herself on a gurney and mentioned having a visible black eye, which she explained occurred while dog-sitting. Power, who rose to fame on season six of "Married At First Sight" in 2019, has since appeared on various other reality programs.
