Disappointed Toddler Tourist's 'Honest Review' Of New York City Goes Viral

They say it’s where dreams are made — but it ended up being this little girl’s nightmare. Convinced that the streets and avenues of New York City were paved with gold, one toddler tourist got the shock of her short life when she arrived in the Big Apple to find that it actually smelled kind of rotten and that the yellowish puddles on the ground weren’t pools of precious metal. “Mama, I don’t like [it] here in New York. There’s a lot of rubbish,” whined three-year-old Jette Blackman, from Sydney, Australia, in a trending TikTok clip of her inaugural visit to Gotham at the top of the new year. “You said it’s pretty,” groaned the tot as she disappointedly trotted around Times Square with mom Jeraldine in the gut-busting video, which racked up a staggering 21.5 million views. “Mama, don’t lie to me next time — lying is not fun.” - “Look at all the stuff on the floor,” complained Jette. “There’s so many people here.”
