basically, they had to grow up. and good that they did, because their millions of teen followers would also have to eventually grow up and stop looking to their influencers every minute. it was never a sustainable way of living.
Self absorbed trash that ruins lives.
You can easily pretty much lose who you are trying so hard to impress and influence for clicks. However, there are some very good messages out there for young people to grow and live a prosperous life.
I never understood how people don’t cherish their privacy.
She has to attribute her new business's success to the followings she has gathered as a influencer though. You expect me to believe that you sold all those candles without the help of your viewers? Basically they had a career change, or that they are more than just a content creator now.
Brain dead content for the brain dead, nice to see nbc stooping down to this level.
🥱
The less social media, the better for mental health for everyone, influencer or not. Unfortunately, advertisers and News organizations are feeding into the social media addiction and should be held accountable as well.
What it boils down to is that they grew up.
Who?
Influencers are pathetic but the persons who empower them are even more pathetic. Get your own lives.
Influencers are a joke nothing more
After erasing all my social media platforms I’ve been able to gain more insight of myself and grow my confidence again. Influencing is no joke and it takes a toll on your mental health.
Some things are just meant to be done for yourself and not for others . It’s an addiction and getting off my platform was the best thing I’ve done for my mental health to focus on my profession in academia.
Hope it's horrible … You people are the worst
