Madeleine White Fedyk is coming under fire for a “selfish” and “irresponsible” decision!
The influencer, who boasts over 2.1 million followers on Instagram and an astounding 5.1 million on TikTok, sparked controversy over the weekend when she shared a GRWM (get ready with me) vlog to attend a packed party for her 30th birthday… all the while having a highly contagious infection!
Yes, as she put on her makeup, you could clearly see she had conjunctivitis, aka pink eye. And she wasn’t trying to hide it! She told the camera through red, inflamed eyes:
“This is just my luck, this would happen to me.”
While getting ready, the internet star revealed she contracted the infection from her husband Andrew Fedyk and his “2 green makeup from Spirit Halloween” as the pair dressed as Fiona and Shrek.

But her condition wasn’t going to hold her back from diving into a crowd… She revealed she was on her way to the EDC rave in Orlando “with 100,000 other people”! WTF! And she didn’t even consider maybe sitting this one out because of her highly contagious infection?! She told the camera:
“I’m just going to cover it up with sparkles and some sunglasses and call it a god damn day.”

@madeleine_white Just my luck lol ????????????
Critics were quick to rush to the comments absolutely BLASTING Madeleine for her lack of consideration for others:
“umm babe? Pink eye is contagious”
“Why are you going out with pink eye”
“ur gonna give everyone pink eye”
“As an early childhood educator, hand foot & mouth and pink eye are code red when it comes to contagious illness. Going into a crowd like EDC with full blown pink eye is absolutely insane. Choose better in the future please girl”
“should have cancelled, isn’t pink eye very very contagious?? your friends are going to be sick tomorrow”
On Reddit, fans added:
“This post just pmo. Why would you just go out with pink eye? It’s so gross, selfish, and irresponsible”
“Going out with conjunctivitis is a wild choice. Don’t touch anyone or anything please. ugh. This is why I don’t trust people”
Back on TikTok, one user wrote:
“Babe I love you forever and ever and I will say this gently but going out with pink eye is wild. why go to a rave if you know you have conjunctivitis sincerely a healthcare worker”
And the influencer told her:
“This is my first time hearing in my life you’re expected to stay home with conjunctivitis.. in uk we wash hands, don’t touch eyes and continue as normal”
Another commenter added:
“girl pink eye is literally VERY CONTAGIOUS, the doctors will give you days off because of this??”
Damn! With all that, you’d think Madeleine would have some shame, right? NOPE! She responded to all the criticism by downplaying the infection, saying:
“Not where I come from.. in England this is viewed as more minor than the common cold …”
Interesting comparison, but… Is it not also hygienic and courteous to try to keep to yourself when you have a common cold? See her full rave outfit (below):
