An indigenous Australian woman has thrilled the internet, via the Chinese spyware platform TikTok and Zuck’s data-fishing site Instagram, with a love letter to the eleven-time world surfing champ Kelly Slater.
The Lifetime Achievement Award is a semi-regular accolade given to athletes who’ve made extraordinary contributions to their sport, transcending competition to impact its culture, development, or global reach. It is not awarded annually, making it a rare and highly selective honor.
Aunty C, meanwhile, is a modestly attractive woman of early middle age with a penchant for exhilarating and audacious pieces to camera whose online work might be described as effortless, honest and fearless.
She leaps from topic to topic at breakneck speed, examining concepts so strategically and methodically, her words become scalpels, flaying open unacknowledged bias, privilege and conflict where she sees it.
From McDonalds to Centrelink, Aunty C ain’t afraid to light up.

And, recently, Aunty C, holding a stuffed turtle for she knows its a totem that resonates with the champ, posted a love letter to Kelly Slater.
“Kelly Slater. If you see this video, um, let me know what you’re doin,” says Aunty C. “Hahahaha, hehehehehe, yeah haven’t heard from you, so, let me know what’s happening, if you want. Byeeeeee!”
Slater was tagged multiple times in the comments, including from mighty power surfer Holly Wawn, although his new role as a father to baby Tao with Chinese bikini mogul Kalani Miller might disqualify him from seeking a sexy meet-and-greet with Aunty C.
