An Australian influencer has been forced to defend her lavish lifestyle after fans questioned whether she actually has a 'real job'.
Instagram star Madison Woolley courted criticism in recent weeks after she uploaded a string of Youtube videos documenting herself enjoying back-to-back meals at some of Sydney's best restaurants.
Over the length of four lengthy videos, Madison filmed herself clinking glasses and dining with her friends at exclusive restaurants including Catalina, where she splurged $210 on a three-course luncheon plus a bottle of wine.

Hours after visiting Catalina, she attended Darling Harbour nightspot Zephyr Bar for drinks and cocktails with a friend, before going out for crab pasta in Bondi with another group of pals.
She also documented herself drinking $36 caviar vodka shots at Mimi's in Coogee, and splurging $40 on a bowl of edamame at an upmarket Japanese restaurant.
In-between her lavish meals, Madison treated herself to a spree of beauty treatments, including hair and eyelash extension appointments and a visit to the nail salon.

'I promise I'm still working. I feel like a lot of people probably watch this and feel like, 'Wow, she actually does nothing with her days, except for go out for lunch'.

Madison insisted that, after spending the afternoon wining and dining at Catalina, she intended to put her nose to the grindstone.
