DESCRIPTION: (from CBS's press release, August 2025) When 21-year-old William White posted a lip-synching video to TikTok, he hardly expected to become an internet sensation overnight. Sparking a "thirst trap" obsession with lovesick fans, the line between real connection and online fantasy was blurred as gained millions of fans. What first seemed like innocent interactions with self-formed fan-clubs for White, turned into jealousy, blackmail and betrayal by the fans who were determined to watch his every move online. With exclusive interviews with William's super fans, and William himself, THIRST TRAP is a powerful exploration of internet culture, obsession and identity in the modern age. |
