Former Disney worker said married men used to hit on her in Tinker Bell costume

A former Disney employee revealed that married men used to hit on her as she played Tinker Bell, in a viral TikTok video.

Sarah Daniels, who goes by @saradanielstv on the app, and noted that she’s an “ex-Disney princess” (according to her bio) posted a video in response to an onlooker who asked: “How many Dads end up hitting on you BECAUSE you’re the character? As opposed to because you’re an attractive woman?”

Citing that it was a “unique question,” Daniels said: “I feel like if dudes are going to be creeps and hit on you, they’re going to hit on you whether or not you’re a character or not. But there were many moments, especially as Tinker Bell, where I had married men hand me keys to their hotel room and tell me where they were staying.”

How cringe-worthy.

Several People in the comments questioned why Tinker Bell was sexualised at all, as well as the men who wanted to give Daniels keys to their hotel rooms.

Someone else who seeming played Tinker Bell as well agreed with Daniels’ sentiment and wrote, “Yes Tinkerbell! I was hit on so much as Tink.”
