Ep. 287: Talking like we’re on FaceTime with Tefi Pessoa. From the morning bloat to why she loves pop culture and why we should all stay weird

Tefi Pessoa is the queen of pop culture because she eats, sleeps and breathes it! I knew I wanted to start 2025 with Tefi on the BeautyMe Podcast, because if anyone can bring light relief and laughter to your day, she’s the one. Her deep dives on everyone from Richard Gere dating Cindy Crawford, to the weird and wonderful past of the members of rock group Fleetwood Mac have kept Tefi’s 1.9million TikTok followers engaged with a blend of nostalgia and comedy, but she also serves up laughs on the daily by sharing her own takes on current affairs as well as her dating life. Today Tefi not only keeps her followers laughing; she’s also featured in fashion and beauty campaigns and she is the go-to when it comes to genuine, engaging red carpet coverage. But Tefi isn’t just all about the laughs; she’s a ride or die for her follower friends when they’re looking for life advice and is an advocate for mental health and being confident in your skin. In this video episode Tefi shares her thoughts on everything on the morning bloat to why she’s always down to clapback in the comments and the first time she felt like she was the star of the show. I guarantee you’re going to laugh out LOUD.
