Carole Baskin has been basking (see what I did there) in the spotlight ever since first appearing in the Netflix “Tiger King” docuseries in 2020.
But the big cat advocate popped back into the spotlight Wednesday (3/23/22) when she appeared in a couple of TikTok videos that racked up more than 3 million views before disappearing from the internet.
In the viral video, the Big Cat Rescue CEO danced alongside two girls as they danced to the Brooklyn Charles track “Savage: Tiger King Edition.”
The song's lyrics suggest the widely popular opinion that Baskin murdered her missing husband, Don Lewis, who has not been seen since 1997.
Baskin looks as if she's happy to play along and is laughing until Charles raps the lyrics: “Carole Baskin, killed her husband, whacked him.” And Baskin can be seen mouthing, “No, I didn’t!”
Throughout the years, Baskin has denied that she had any involvement in Lewis’ mysterious disappearance.
Of course, the video garnered many comments, with one user asking: “How did you get her to agree to this?!”
Below is a duet another TikToker created where you can still see Baskin dancing and reacting to the song.
