Patricia started her TikTok in 2016 to show her funny side and show more of her talent online.

"I’m just me and being weird is ok for me because life is too short when you can just spread some love," Patricia said.

Soon, she started posting to show off her natural beauty vs with makeup done, however, after receiving multiple comments off people calling her a catfish, she embraced the title.

She added: "Back then I started posting my makeup videos and people called me ugly or would say 'what’s wrong with your face?', they then called me a catfish and I knew what that was, but that wasn’t my mission.

"I wanted to share my before and after videos because for so long, those words cut so much and you get into depression, until you can finally get up and turn those negative comments into something bittersweet.

"So that day, I decided to make that video to show them so yeah, I guess I am a catfish!

"Words stopped hurting me and my TikTok tribe fans backed me up because they know what I’ve been through!"

She posted the 'catfish' video on 2 September 2021. Showing a before and after, going from natural with no makeup to a full face of glam.

The video starts with Patricia making faces at the camera, with no makeup on and hair unfinished.

Then she transitions to a full face of make up, hair styled and big silver hoops.

The TikTok video received over 2.5 million views and plenty of comments.

Speaking about the comments she received, Patricia added: "There is no such thing as perfect, let’s be real, we all have skin texture and this is so surreal that we’d all think we are made of robots or something because we are not.

"Makeup is not illegal, we enhance our beauty and we all are artistic so why take the fun out of that?

"I can go from a simple makeup look to dramatic sometimes so the comments from my supporters have my back, they still do till this day.

I love all of them, even the ones who hate."
