COLLEGE LIFE

Mady has been surfacing on social media more often than usual lately, as she took to TikTok earlier this week to .

She captioned the video: "Here’s my room this year at school!" and opted for an instrumental cover of Blackbird by The Beatles to back her lifestyle post.

The video itself saw Mady smiling at the camera as the caption "My little room this year at school since you guys have been asking :)" appeared alongside the shot.

The camera then panned to a leafy potted plant- which she proceeded to tell fans is "fake," a poster illustrated with a series of spiritual minerals and crystals, and a "new rug."

She then showed off her handiwork skills by presenting viewers with a glimpse of her new headboard, that she made "using a poster board, foam and fabric."

The final shot showed off the former reality star's feminist side, as she panned towards her "female author, female protagonist only bookshelf."

The star made the comment in reference to a line from Olivia Rodrigo’s song, Enough for You, that played in the background in which the singer sings, "And maybe I’m just not as interesting as the girls you had before."

 then turned the hilarity on herself as she admitted that she may appear a "little TOO interesting" to others in the caption.
