A MUM has caused a stir online after revealing she gives herself a “prep talk” ahead of nights out.
Kerri Roma Anderson, 31, boasts well over 372,000 TikTok followers and often posts videos about her daily life.
In a recent clip, the single mum – from Bo’Ness, West Lothian – said she struggles to hype herself up for a big night out.
Instead, she prefers cosying up on the couch to watch telly.
She said: “POV You prep talk yourself into going out with the gals.

“Ignoring all texts and calls, grabbing a munch and watching a serial killer documentary.”
After posting the video, one fan said: “I always thought it was a ‘pep talk’.
Kerri later replied: “Could be. I just have always said prep as in preparation talk.”
And while the mum’s version makes some sense, it is pep talk that is officially listed in the Collins Dictionary.
It is described as a speech which is intended to encourage someone to make more effort or feel more confident – exactly what Kerri was trying to achieve ahead of her night out.
She’s not the first to spark a debate over the way she says something.

Carla Gouveia fumed on TikTok: “Right, I’m not being funny now, I’ve had too many comments from people saying that I’m saying necklace wrong.
“And it’s not said wrong, because what do you do with your shoelaces?

“What do you eat? Strawberry laces.
I’m right, Just accept it for once that my wording, my pronunciation, makes more sense than everyone else’s that said I said it wrong.”
