On March 26, 2021, April Fooze moved to Los Santos after a car crash led her to leave her medical practice. She was formerly married to Shmedison Shmark, who she claims left her for Yuno Sykk after the accident. She moved to Los Santos in order to take revenge on Yuno and to be a doctor again, but instead found a new passion of collecting sugar daddies. She befriended Chang Gang and later formerly joined the gang as "*The Gold Digger*."

## Falling Off (2023-2028)

*The following is adapted from the personal testimony of "The Life and Times of April Fooze" and may not be an objective retelling of what actually happened.*

It was official: April Fooze was cancelled. Social media, where she had once been the queen, became a vengeful mob hell-bent on taking her down. The Swifties became more and more violent, until one of them even tried to kill her. A gunshot of fury struck April and left her permanently deaf in one ear. Even her incognito disguise, a wig, a beanie and glasses only worked for so long. At her wits' end, she dug into her extremely wealthy bank account and took the only option remaining, to anonymously travel overseas. Where she went, however, was a choice she would make with her heart.

Millions of dollars were down the drain. According to March, they made $25,000 back and it was all a big mistake. According to April, they made 50 cents back and her brother had scammed him. This was too big of a strain on their relationship, and April ceased all communication with March. According to April, she cries about it every night.
The next year, in 2026, April became desperate. With her Pixel Perfect money drying up due to Los Santos' economic collapse and $2 million wasted, she would do anything to keep her wealthy lifestyle. Selling everything that she could think of -- cars, jewellery, clothes, anything for a second chance -- she eventually landed on a business venture. In an attempt to rebuild her life, April decided to pour all remaining wealth and clout she had into a product for any fans she had left. It had been years since her cancellation by the Swifties, and the hate was a mere blip now that she was off the grid. Using the brand she had built up as an influencer, April drew inspiration from her famous heart-shaped blush that had once captivated her fans and created a cosmetic line of makeup to emulate it.

The reception to the channel immediately spelled out a harsh reality that could not be avoided any longer: April Fooze was broke, and her fans were busy. Gone were The Foozlers, braiding their box-dyed hair strands and proudly singing along to her lyrics. Even April herself could not afford to maintain her iconic hair color and was a shell of her former self. Her cheeks were permanently stained from the years of applying the cheek blush. April was beyond embarrassed. The flop of her new channel punctuated a long and desperate string of attempts to stay relevant.
There was nothing more that could be done. April relented to the fact that her life of fame was a blip in the past. Accepting a regular existence, April gave up and moved to Illinois. She had an apartment, some roommates, a job, and a normal life. For around a year and a half, she stayed there and mostly kept to herself. It would seem that her time as a social butterfly was over, and keeping her head down was the only way she knew how to be.

## Return to Los Santos (2028-2029+)

### First Week Back

With her headphones playing her old hits, April kept her head down as she exited her apartment for the first time. She found herself conversing with passerby taxi drivers (Trey Smoke & Antonio Salvador Guzman) and invited herself into their car. After claiming "I'm not here to trauma dump", she began explaining everything that happened the past five years. This unprompted memoir was cut short by the arrival of Carmella Valentino, the first person April would be reunited with after returning to Los Santos. Recognizing her voice, April jumped out and embraced her, happy to see a familiar face. Carmella immediately noticed April wasn't looking like her usual self, and offered her new expertise as a plastic surgeon, but the girls settled on the more affordable alternative of a wardrobe makeover. After a close call with Mr. K almost recognizing April if not for the alias "Helen" that Carmella quickly invented, the two hitched a ride in the taxi to the clothing store. While helping April find her style, Carmella filled her in on the population's financial situation, prompting April to explain everything to do with her brother, Travis Kelce and her failed make-up brand. The two women bonded over not being as young as they once were, but things quickly turned sour when Carmella implied that April looked homeless, causing her to become paranoid and believe Carmella was sabotaging her. Carmella ominously warned April to "Trust no one", before telling her the grocery bag she had handed her earlier contained a bomb. Hearing high-pitched beeping, April dropped the grocery bag and ran away. But she wouldn't make it far, passing out on the sidewalk and requiring Carmella to call an EMS. She placed her next to the "bomb" which began beeping again, but stopped as soon as Carmella departed. April claimed to the EMT that she had passed out in a heroic effort to save a little boy from danger, but did admit she hadn't eaten that day. She explained the bomb and claimed Doctor Valentino tried to kill her but expressed uncertainty on if it was a prank.
Upon being granted permission to leave by the arriving police officer who recalled hearing her name five years ago, April negotiated a therapy session with Trey from earlier. After perusing the Yellow Pages, April called Patar Bellosh and asked for Ramee El Ramen's number, claiming it was not the purpose of her call. She also negotiated therapy with Patar and vented somewhat about her issues on the call, claiming payment for the therapy would be difficult due to overseas bank accounts.
Needing a taxi, April called up Maxamillion Angel (Max) from the Yellow Pages. Stopping by at the old Pixel Perfect storefront, April angrily kicked the Digital Den that stood in its place. The two agreed that she would pay Max in conversation rather than money and stopped by at Snr Buns to grab some food. Initially introducing herself as Helen, April soon noticed Ursula Leichenberg at the serving counter and revealed it was her, scoring a free meal despite Ursula's lack of enthusiasm to see her. She took this opportunity to complicate her order, which induced annoyance in Abby Brooks and an unknown British man. The three take the argument outside, at which point April and Abby exchanged names, causing the latter to become starstruck and faint after April refused to accept her apology. She then noticed that Sal Rosenberg had been standing there the whole time, and then Abby's friend Alexander Campbell showed up. April explained to the group how she had been cancelled by the Swifties.
Returning to the taxi with Max, April took the chance to vent about everything that had happened, including her history with Ramee and her suspicions on if Carmella, his ex-wife, had tried to kill her earlier out of jealousy. Calling Ramee with the number she had gotten from Patar was unproductive as the two talked past each other, and she decided to ask Patar for a therapy session. Max's friend "Ms Midnight" popped up at the apartment, and April expressed an interest in her.
Deciding that the Liquid Library would be a good venue for her therapy session, April and Max met up there with Patar before Max became the topic of a heated argument, with the other two becoming possessive over him. It was resolved with Max admitting he had been friends with Patar longer, but was being paid by April with conversation. Once the therapy started, April recounted her past and ended with her uncertainty over what to do with her former friend Ray Mond who she had not talked to for almost 7 years. Seeing it as Ray's responsibility as the more "clingy" one to reach out, April did not attempt to communicate and felt she was ghosted, as well as feeling shame about her fall from grace. Her anxiety about facing people she knew even caused her to scream and jump when Patar's phone rang. After some roleplaying with Patar and Max as well as getting drunk then sobering up, April felt more confident to comunicate healthily with Ray. They toured the Liquid Library, April overcame some of her stage fright after not performing in years (even if it was just in front of Max and Patar), Max agreed to be April's personal driver, and then they jammed with Patar's three friends that showed up (Beetlejuice, Moses Khan and James Malding) to an acapella version of Rick Astley's "Never Gonna Give You Up". After leaving the building, April told Max she feels the "PL" (platonic love) even if it seems too soon, with Max concurring that they are "insta besties".
Finally, April felt ready to call Ray Mond. At first, she panicked and hung up when her voice wasn't recognized but upon recalling the two devolved into a heated argument about whose responsibility their falling out was. Ray retorted that she has better friends now, and April was jealous hearing about Giavanna Costello (Gigi). Ultimately though, she ended the call feeling proud of herself and relieved and confided in Max that she worried about being clingy. Deciding to get a job at Snr Buns, she stopped off at Legion Square first to take in the sights while listening to music.
Arriving at their destination, April nervously tried to look busy by holding a broom but was spotted by Kitty Dream and Timothy Butler, with Gigi, Ray Mond and Daphne Malone following soon after. Soon April was surrounded by a crowd of people, familiar and unfamiliar, commenting on how they different she looks from their expectations. Gigi became increasingly agitated and ended up arguing with April who became insecure and ran away, overwhelmed. However, with some tough love she became motivated to improve herself and got motivated for the job interview, which was conducted by her former employee Ricardo Perez. He ended up hiring her despite some initial taunting, and April noticed Taco Prince at the cash register. The two began remeniscing about their time, and after a brief relapse of April's psychosemantic crabs Ray Mond and the others showed up before April was reminded she was supposed to be woring. She clocked in, working her first shift, but Ray Mond's intentionally complex order overwhelmed her and she ran away again. Her friends comforted her, and she was briefly reunited with Yuno Sykk who claimed "a psycho lady" was impersonating her a week earlier. April flirted with "ociffer" Leonardo Slacks, and back on shift realized her coworker at the counter had been old acquaintance Malakai Anderson. She met and exchanged numbers with Luciano DiCenzo, Gigi's cousin, reunited with Liz Anya who laughed about April's appearance, and runited with Benny Razer. Calling Ray Mond again, she confessed that she saved her name as "Ex Bestie", flaring up another heated argument between the two. After winning a deathroll payslip gamble against Yuno, she lost against Timothy. She conversed with Luciano while the two agreed they can be clocked in and take a smoke break instead of working. She reunited with Elena Vega, and met Cammy and Mari McKay while also meeting a man with a "BIGNESS" shirt.

Despite Kitty encouraging Raymond and April to hang out, he had to leave for a meeting and April warned him not to break her gworl's heart. April was formally introduced to Eli Lum, the British man from the previous day who had argued with her over holding up the line in Snr Buns, and told him off for repeatedly calling her "April Snooze". Various Snr Buns employees interrupted their conversation as instructed by James Randall, so the two left to take adderall in the train station. There they met Honda, a man who tried to sell them knives and later consoled April when she was upset over the long job queue. Raymond and Marty returned from their meeting and went with April and Eli on a sanitation run. They hit several snags on the way, leading April to reunite with Larry and Mr Lang, and meet Felib and Tanner. She also learned of Larry and Gigi's intense sexual relationship. After the group completed their sanitation and Marty left, April reminisced on the past, grieving the loss of the Chang Gang mural and her old prison gang "The Plastics". With another hospital visit, April flirted some more with Tanner and met Jacky Legs.
The group then decided that April, Max and Eli would run a yoga scam, harkening back to April's first few days in the city. They marketed to Bobby Brown and a Tictac influencer as customers while picking out clothes, and chose the Liquid Library as a location for its atmosphere. April came up with the slogan "You'll never get stretched out this good", as well as "Come get stretchedwith April Fooze" and later referred to Eli and Max as "The stretch boys". Beverly "Bevster" showed up to offer future assistance, and Wade Hawk helped with playing the flute. The trio gradually practiced and polished their routine, giving yoga lessons to Tolan, Artem Monet (Who got a free lesson in exchange for his earlier advertisement), Timothy, Kitty, Tessa, Tanner, Gigi and a man who snuck in without playing. April was also paid $800 by Tanner who implied he would like to be her sugar daddy. Ray Mond, Rod Long and a rat also showed up, however the yoga group was disbanded before any more lessons could be taught due to a ground party.
Max once again drove April to her destination, and once in her apartment she called up BonBon for a bedtime story just like five years ago.
