MISS KNOCKOUT (Michelle Bracey) is the social media persona and content creator from Manhattan who livestreamed and provided daily commentary on the high-profile Sean “Diddy” Combs federal trial in New York City. She used platforms like TikTok (as @miss_knockout) to post relatable updates, analysis, and reactions from outside the courtroom, building her audience as mainstream cameras were banned from the proceedings. Over the course of the trial, her following grew significantly — by thousands of followers — as people tuned in for her entertaining yet informative take on the latest developments. By combining humor, personality, and consistent coverage, she demonstrated how independent creators can attract large audiences around major events in real time. Her presence at the trial represents a new era of grassroots media where everyday observers use social platforms to share experiences and shape public conversation. While she’s not a traditional journalist, Miss Knockout’s coverage shows how social media influencers are reshaping how people consume news. Because of her viral reach during a major national news event and her ability to engage viewers daily, she has emerged as a nationally recognized influencer in the digital media landscape. Stay tuned to our "African-American Influencers" series on all social media platforms during February!
