A young woman from the city of Houston simply posted a selfie of herself on Twitter while working at Home Depot and social media went crazy.
Ariana Josephine, aka “Home Depot Girl,” never thought she would gain so much traction online from a single picture. The viral sensation is being praised for her looks, but she is a woman of faith, fashion sense, and all while studying at the University of Houston.
Josephine works for the huge chain to earn the “right money,” as she mentioned in one of her tweets.
She had to come out and say this, because thousands of people want her to capitalize and start an Onlyfans page for easy money. She made it clear she would never do that, which garnered a negative reaction from several models and adult entertainment workers indirectly through her individual tweets by saying that all money isn’t “good money.”
It caused Shaq to jump into her messages on Instagram.
“Don’t let them people [sic] bother u,” O’Neal wrote to Ariana.
“Don’t read the comments stuff like that will drive you crazy.”

Ariana is also viral on Instagram, where she has more than 128,000 followers.
Here’s what she had to say.
“Last post about Home Depot since the world is illegally doxxing my location and job. Y’all turned something innocent into something crazy, and ruined my way of making money by seriously taking the internet TOO far. Thanks for all the nice people I’ve spoken to and inspired and thanks to the hate because it’s helped me grow closer to God and be more tough skinned,” she wrote.
Let’s take a closer look at her posts on Instagram which have also gained traction.
