There's More to That Viral Video of a Woman Breastfeeding a Cat on a Plane Than You Might Think

Take a closer look at There's More to That Viral Video of a Woman Breastfeeding a Cat on a Plane Than You Might Think in our detailed breakdown.

The viral video was designed to be exactly that, and thanks to the genius of former Ringling Brothers clown and current content creator The Gooch, it became the latest and greatest TikTok sensation. According to Rolling Stone, the entire video was staged and the series of events was specially chosen to evoke reactions from millions of viewers.

The original video was shared by The Gooch's Facebook page on Dec. 16, 2021, alongside the disclaimer "for entertainment purposes only," solidifying the notion that the video was completely staged. It garnered over 3 million views on that platform alone.

As for the woman from the video, it appears to be artist, songwriter, and content creator Taylor Watson. Neither Taylor nor The Gooch has confirmed her role in the project, but Taylor posted another video on Dec. 12, 2021, on the same "airplane," wearing the same outfit, and having an entirely different staged altercation with the same actor from the cat video. Taking that into account, it's safe to assume that she is the woman starring in the cat video as well.
