Brooke Schofield (born November 26, 1996) is an American influencer, podcaster, and former actress. She hosts the podcast Cancelled (2021–present) with Tana Mongeau.
Early life
[edit]Brooke Schofield was born on November 26, 1996.[5][6] According to her, her parents were drug addicts and she was adopted by her conservative grandparents when she was 10 years old.[7][8] She attended the University of Arizona, where she studied nursing and was in a sorority. She dropped out, stating that she frequently cheated on her exams, and, inspired by the 2017 musical film The Greatest Showman, moved to Los Angeles in 2018 to become an actress.[9][10][6]
Career
[edit]Schofield appeared in the films Hook, Line, Sinker and Leave Him in the Dust in 2019. She then worked as a waitress for three years to fund auditions. After being fired from Catch LA during the COVID-19 pandemic, she became close friends with influencer Tana Mongeau. The two began co-hosting the weekly podcast Cancelled in July 2021, where they gossip about celebrities and discuss their personal lives.[11][12] Schofield often talks about her relationships on the podcast.[13] The duo went on tour in 2023 and again from February to July 2024.[10] By June 2024, Schofield had over 700 thousand followers on Instagram and over 1.5 million on TikTok.[14] In August 2024, Schofield collaborated with clothing brand Boys Lie on a capsule collection called Bless His Heart.[6] Schofield and Mongeau are scheduled to go on their national Cancelled Cross Country tour from September to October 2024.[15]
Personal life
[edit]Schofield has been open about her breast augmentation and other plastic surgery procedures.[6]
Schofield was in a brief relationship with singer-songwriter Clinton Kane in 2021. In 2024, Schofield responded to a TikTok video by Kane, which he captioned, "When you've been over the relationship for 2 years but she won’t stop yapping," with a 14-part video series in which she alleged that he had lied about his parents and brother dying, his being Australian, and his age.[14] She also accused him of cheating on her multiple times.[16] The series, which was inspired by TikTok user Reesa Teesa's "Who TF Did I Marry?" series on the platform, went viral online and inspired other creators to post similar video series.[6] Kane responded with his own multi-part TikTok series titled "Who Did I Date Not Marry", while his representative refuted Schofield's claims to Rolling Stone and People.[17][18] She was also in a relationship with comedian Matt Rife starting at the beginning of 2023, whom she later accused of body shaming and love bombing her.[19][20]
Tweets from Schofield made as a teenager from 2012 to 2015, including a 2013 tweet defending George Zimmerman killing Trayvon Martin in 2012 as "self defense" and not "a crime of racism" and another from 2015 about her saying "so many accidentally racist things" the night prior, were resurfaced in August 2024 by the Twitter account Pop Crave. She posted a four-minute-long apology video on TikTok for the tweets that same month, attributing her views at the time to her grandparents not being progressive.[8][7] As a result Schofield has temporarily stepped back from the Cancelled podcast.[21]
