Disney influencer Kayla Little, known for her engaging online content about the parks, announced today that she was let go from Walt Disney World after just one day in her new role. In a video shared with her followers, Little said she was terminated for “poor performance,” a reason she described as unusual given that she had not received any critical feedback during her training.
Disney Influencer Makes Statement
The situation has sparked a discussion among Little’s fans and the Disney community, particularly surrounding one of her recent videos filmed in a cast member parking lot. Some speculate that the video may have contributed to Disney’s decision, although no official connection has been confirmed. Little, known for her candid and unfiltered content, has built a large following on social media, where she shares behind-the-scenes moments and her experiences as a Disney fan.
Little is now exploring her legal options with the help of a union representative, reportedly seeking to build a case for wrongful termination. The influencer has said she feels the termination was unjust and that her online presence should not have impacted her professional role. “I’ve always loved Disney,” she shared in her post, adding that the sudden termination has left her feeling blindsided and confused.

The Start of a Trend?
The incident has sparked a broader conversation about the blurred lines between employees’ private lives and their professional conduct, particularly when social media activity intersects with workplace policies. Disney has not publicly commented on Little’s termination, and it remains unclear how this situation may influence other cast members with public social media profiles, many of whom share their lives at the parks with a large audience.
Kayla Little’s followers have shown support across social media, with many expressing surprise over the sudden firing and offering encouragement as she navigates her next steps. Some fans have even called for a closer examination of Disney’s treatment of influencers and the expectations they place on employees with a public presence.
While the future of Little’s Disney career remains uncertain, she has vowed to continue creating content for her followers, with many supporters urging her to fight for fairness. The outcome of her wrongful termination case could potentially set a precedent for how Disney handles similar situations moving forward.
