NYC Influencer’s Priceless Prank on Her Uncle Before Pride

In a lighthearted TikTok video, NYC influencer Nicole Bloomgarden (@nicolebloomgarden) decided to prank her uncle by coming out to him yet again, despite having already told him she is gay. The video, shared just before Pride Month, captures her uncle’s exasperated reaction.

Queer people often recall the dread of coming out, especially given the current political climate. However, Nicole’s uncle had already accepted her identity. So, she pretended to reveal the news for the “first time,” prompting his priceless response: “What’s wrong with you?”

His tone was more humorous than harsh, a mix of annoyance and affection. The video highlights a refreshing twist on a typically stressful experience:

  • A familiar reveal: Nicole had come out to her uncle previously, making this a comedic repeat.
  • His reaction: Instead of shock or confusion, he rolled his eyes and questioned her sanity.
  • The punchline: The uncle’s deadpan delivery went viral, with viewers praising his casual acceptance.

The clip serves as a reminder that coming out doesn’t always have to be fraught with anxiety. For Nicole, it became a moment of shared humor and familial love, proving that sometimes the best reactions are the ones that treat your identity as old news.
