    This isn't saying she got paid after the TikTok – it's saying the guy didn't know she wasn't paid, until he saw the TikTok. AFAIK she hasn't been paid at all.

      According to his post, he did not produce the show and did not know that Wu was not compensated for her time until he saw her TikTok. “After finding out through her videos that she wasn’t paid, I offered Shereen compensation for her time and talents,” Costello wrote.

      It sounds like he at least offered to pay her, despite not being the one that was running the show and paying her.
