Goth content creator Pinkchyu is back in the timeline, this time without the full face of black lipstick and heavy liner.
A fresh batch of clips is circulating on X, showing the Texas-based influencer with a more natural appearance.
The clips land weeks after Pinkchyu, whose real name is Lin Lamar, blew up for her turn on Drake’s “20 v 1” dating livestream in early August. The Kick stream, put together with the NELK Boys, had the rapper running through 20 dates. Pinkchyu stood out immediately with the pale makeup, spiked choker, and alternative fit. The moment that stuck was her telling Drake to bark—and him actually doing it. He picked her as a winner and told her she could have whatever she wanted. She asked for a house for her mom. Drake said yes, and she’s since confirmed he’s serious about making it happen once she sends over listings.
Pinkchyu has been clear that nothing physical went down after the cameras stopped. She’s told multiple outlets they just talked at the after-party and that she’s single, focused on work, and running on cat mom energy. Still, the internet ran with the “Drake’s goth girlfriend” label, and some later reports floated extra hangouts, including one involving a private setup at Toronto’s Casa Loma. Fact-checks this week have pushed back hard on any claims of an official relationship or a subsequent breakup, calling certain circulating “DM leaks” fabricated for engagement.
The no-makeup wave started right after she went viral. Old photos of a less-stylized version of her started making the rounds, and the comments section did what it always does—questioned the glow-up, the makeup, and whether the look was all filters and procedures. Pinkchyu and her supporters answered with videos of her stripping back the goth glam. The newest round is getting the same treatment: some people are calling it a clear W, others are still arguing about how natural it really is.
Before the Drake moment, Pinkchyu had already built a solid lane as a cosplayer, streamer, and OnlyFans creator with a hardcore goth aesthetic. She’d dropped music too, including tracks like “Electric Invasion.” Her past included a public split from streamer Tectone that involved serious allegations on her end. She also tried out for Bop House and didn’t make the cut, later talking about building something in a similar lane on her own terms.
Right now the timeline is treating the natural-look clips the same way it treated the barking video—another chapter in the sudden fame story. Whether the Drake connection stays in the friend-zone-with-a-house-for-mom territory or turns into something more, Pinkchyu is making sure the internet sees the full picture.
