-Roblox
Gigi, the 17-year-old creator of Roblox’s popular game 'Dress to Impress,' is facing serious allegations from Sara, the creator of 'It Girl.'
On September 30, Sara posted a thread and a Google document on social media platform X, formerly Twitter, accusing Gigi of attempting to frame her as a rapist, body-shaming, and other inappropriate behavior.
Sara shared screenshots from former developers of 'Dress to Impress,' who claimed Gigi planned to frame her if Sara’s game gained popularity. Additional accusations included attempts to falsely DMCA strike 'It Girl' and mocking Sara’s appearance through a shared photo.
