Georgetown University students are allegedly planning to hold a Charlie Kirk “lookalike contest” on the one-year anniversary of the conservative activist’s assassination — sparking outrage from the advocacy group Kirk co-founded.
The sick Sept. 10 competition was promoted with a post on the anonymous social media platform Fizz and has garnered support from thousands in the form of “upvotes,” Fox News Digital reported.
The Fizz platform for Georgetown University, while not officially associated with the school, requires users to have a university email to interact.
A post announcing the event received more than 2,200 upvotes — amounting to nearly a third of the Washington, DC, private Jesuit university’s undergraduate student body, according to the report.
It reads “Charlie Kirk lookalike contest. September 10th 2026. Pull up to Copley Lawn [on campus] to speak the truth while the cost is high,” according to screenshots obtained by Fox.
Georgetown’s Turning Point USA chapter, a conservative nonprofit advocacy group founded in part by Kirk, provided the posts to Fox News Digital and said they were meant to be mocking.
Other posts to the Fizz app discuss a lookalike contest for Charlie Kirk’s widow, Erika Kirk.
“Can the winner of the Charlie Kirk one be prom king with the winner of this?” one commenter said.
Another sickly proclaims “Happy Kirkaversary, September 10th, on Healy Law.”
Included in the posts is also a request for the school’s a capella group to sing the viral meme song “We Are Charlie Kirk.”
In a statement to Fox News Digital, a Georgetown University spokesperson said that the school was not planning such an event and had no knowledge of any student organization planning a similar event.
“We take these anonymous posts seriously and condemn their language as deeply inconsistent with Georgetown University’s values,” the spokesperson said.
“While Georgetown’s policies give latitude for the free expression of ideas and opinions, making light of a victim of violence is counter to our values and deeply disappointing.”
Turning Point USA officials slammed the possible lookalike contest.
“A culture that can no longer simply mourn the fallen, or respect them enough to at least keep their mouth shut, is a culture that has lost touch with a basic sense of shared humanity,” TPUSA spokesman Andrew Kolvet said in a statement to Fox News Digital.
“Shame on any of the mockers and trolls who debase themselves by continuously proving Charlie outclassed them in every conceivable way.”
The president of Turning Point USA’s Georgetown University chapter, Heidi Sui, said: “The TPUSA Chapter at Georgetown strongly condemns any events that aim to disrespect Charlie Kirk and the upcoming memorial ceremony at UVU.
“These events are not representative of how Americans feel about Charlie and his legacy. To the millions of us who listened to his debates, Charlie never celebrated violence. But some liberal students do. And they are doing it right here — in our nation’s capital of all places,” Sui said in a statement to the outlet.
