That is the question: to be or not to be.” At least, that was the question before the arrival of Trevor Clark.
The internet is in an uproar regarding the identity of Trevor Clark. Is he a guy? He is a myth? Is he a legend? Is he a leader of the alt-right QAnon?
Confused as to what we’re referring to? We get it. Even more difficult than keeping up with the Kardashians is keeping up with Generation Z. Trevor Clark’s story began as most contemporary tales do: with a viral TikTok video…
Who is Trevor Clark on TikTok?
When @emoprincess1996 posted the above TikTok, she was unaware of the chaos that was about to ensue. The video is set to Raye’s “Escapism,” with the lyrics “A little background if you care to listen, I found myself in an s—t situation.”
In the video, the text reads “This is a blessing in disguise. I am on a 12-hour flight because my husband told me to cancel my girls’ trip because our three children were beginning to overwhelm him. I love my husband, Trevor Clark.”
She continues in the caption, “Marriage is full of hiccups and quirks, but it is my responsibility to make Trevor happy because he is my blessing and my entire world.”

In addition, Emo released a video that read, “Trevor Clark and I are divorcing because of the internet. Cancel culture is real and harmful to society. He observed the TikTok and can no longer participate. You received what you desired, the internet.”
Now you understand why the internet was in an uproar about who this woman’s husband (ex-husband?) is. People were either perplexed, believing they had missed a TikTok or had their tales to tell…
Still, bewildered? We get it. Thankfully, Emo resolved the entire controversy…
Emo reveals in the 55-second video that Trevor Clark is not real! She says:
“First of all, Trevor Clark is not a real person; I am not even referring. This is my sense of humor, basically… Second, I’m not referring to a specific incident; if you can relate to the video in any way, I want you to know that you deserve better.”

Therefore, it was satire the entire time! People felt so strongly while watching her video, however, because what she depicts seems plausible. What is another example of satire? The novel The Handmaid’s Tale. Even the Oxford Dictionary defines satire as “the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize the stupidity or vices of people, especially in the context of contemporary politics and other timely issues.”
