Reality Tv star, Jenni O has noted that many influencers incur debt in an effort to live up to the expectations that the public has of them.
She shared a lengthy note on her Instagram page while discussing the downside of being a public figure.
According to Jenni O, leading a life as an influencer consists of faking everything. People tend to become dissatisfied with what is real and even when their fave posts an unedited photo, it becomes an issue.
She claimed that in an effort to live up to the high expectations their supporters have for them, some influencers have now gone into debt.
She wrote;
“Nigerian Influencing consists of fake a*s life. Everything is so fake. Post a real picture it’s an issue
Can’t dress a certain way outside because you don’t want to appear somehow. Some of your faves are in debt trying to keep up with this high as* expectation you all have put for them.
Nothing is real. It’s only in Lagos I knew you could rent anything to look a certain way.
Being an influencer is being able to influence every day PEOPLE.
I’m annoyed. Everyday people are not doing photoshoots every second, everyday people are not wearing full beats to the gym, everyday people are not overdressing to the grocery store.. I can actually go on and on and on.
Lmao I don’t know what kind of unrealistic expectations you all set
Or are you all not seeing your mates abroad.
For a country that already seems like it’s fictional must the indutry be a fantasy land as well?”
