Influencer Jade Tuncdoruk’s Uber Eats rant prompts publicists to pull her from invites list
Aussie influencer Jade Tuncdoruk has found herself in hot water this week, following a refund “demand” she made — and now a complaint she made to Uber Eats in 2017 after it resurfaced online.
The 26-year-old complained to the online food ordering and delivery platform about their “annoying non-English speaking delivery drivers”, which has reportedly prompted publicists to pull her from their upcoming invite lists.
In her rant, she explained how she got a notification saying her food was arriving, taking the person “a further 20 minutes to get to my door because he hadn’t read my delivery instructions”.
“When I called him to explain he didn’t understand a word I was saying … when foreigners are delivering it takes twice as long for me to receive my then cold food. Sort it out,” the post to Uber Eats read.
After it was made public, Jade took to social media to apologise to “anyone I have hurt”.
“I’m sorry to anyone I’ve hurt with my comments. I hold myself accountable for my actions,” she wrote. “It doesn’t excuse anything, but know that I have grown immensely in the past several years. I always do my best to be someone others can look up to and I know I’ve let people down and for that I’m truly sorry.”
However, according to Daily Telegraph, the scathing post has prompted some to distance themselves from the influencer who boasts almost half a million Instagram followers.
The publication reported a high-profile publicist on Friday said she had been pulled from invite lists and brands were refraining from being associated with her.

Nestle gets its fingers burned over KitKat bars adorned with Hindu deities
Nestle has been forced to withdraw a range of KitKat bars adorned with Hindu gods after a backlash in India triggered by fears that images of deities would end up in bins and gutters.
Protesters argued that images of Lord Jagannath, Balabhadra and Mata Subhadra on KitKat wrappers would eventually be thrown away and end up on roads, drains, and dustbins - unconscionable amid growing Hindu nationalism in India.
“This pic of Bhagwan (lord) Jagannath will end up on the road or trash cans. People will walk on it. Why are pics of Hindu Gods/Goddesses used for marketing?" Ayudhika, an Indian student said, demanding Nestle withdraw the bars.
Nestle said the bars were introduced to "celebrate the culture" as they issued a rare apology and withdrew the bars.
The Kitkat travel packs were circulated in the eastern state of Odisha, with designs representing Pattachitra, an art form identifiable by its vivid imagery.
Nestle said: "We wanted to encourage people to know about the art & its artisans. We do understand the sensitivity of the matter and regret if we have inadvertently hurt people's sentiments."
