45 Examples Of Influencers Trying To Play The Main Character But Becoming Laughing Stocks Instead
The global influencer market size has tripled since 2019 and is estimated to reach a record 21.1 billion U.S. dollars in 2023.
However, after some people get a seat at the table, it goes to their heads. The fame and money make them believe that the whole world revolves around them and that everyone else is just along for the ride.

Some of these influencers have such an overblown, exaggerated opinion of themselves. Their expressions when reality smacks them down are priceless

Many social media users feel a career as an influencer is more desirable than a traditional one.
However, the disadvantages you face when you choose this path may outweigh the benefits. If you look close enough, the sector starts to look unappealing on the inside just as much as it does from the outside.

When An Influencer Tried To Call For Support From Simps On The Internet

🎵Me or the ps5, tell me which of us is more your type.🎵 BTW it's a line from ps5 by Salem Ilese and Tomorrow by Together. It's a really good song and I recommend you check it out!!
I listened to it after I saw a yt short made by her about the song

She has many many many MANY simps. I don't know why, she's all Photoshop and makeup (I once saw how she actually looks, it's literally just a normal white woman who looks kinda like me) and doesn't have an interesting personality either.

I'm more xbox but I'd still take the ps5. I could sell that s**t bro
The PS5 didn't need to be shown, no less photoshoped into something an alien would use to fish for humans.
So she does anything I like for a day? Yep, in that case I choose her and a full day of deep cleaning my house :D Or I xan sell the ps5 and buy help. Either way the house gets clean.
It's Amouranth. Not saying she doesn't post attention stuff but she's pretty self-aware and I take this post as more tongue in cheek than anything.
Why would I choose a dumb piece of plastic only to entertain dumb people... over a PS5?
Some women really do think a lot of themselves. Yeah, she’s pretty but so are a billion other women and her narcissism is actually a bit of a turn off.
Given that her picture is photo-shopped beyond a joke I'm not surprised more people chose the PS5.
She is good looking but I hate “influencers” on principle so I don’t see it working out.
PHew. Hope for humanity :) Never thought I'd say that where folk are choosing PS over people but hey, living and learning :)
Looks fade, people like this need to work on their personality, not everyone wants to simp for for someone that seems desperate for attention.
If you're going to run such a poll, you're better off with one that would only appeal to half the population anyway!
Not stupid this Simp would rather play with her. Get a play station anywhere, anytime, not her.
Get something used for a day or get something new for years of entertainment.
To be fair, this woman was in a very controlling and abusive marriage and her husband controlled all of her social media accounts. So he likely posted this then berated her for coming in 2nd place to a PS5
Her husband was/is abusive, I'll let her try and get her validation where she wants to.
The PS5 allows you to play games where you will encounter women far more realistic looking than her.
Is as of 65% of voters value character & personality over vapidness. That, or a PS5.
Although you might get a virus on a PS5, you won’t get the kind that makes your privates fall off
PS5. I need help with Elden Ring and I think majority play on the PS rather than Steam.
PS5. But not because she's an awful person. I could game with my brother (he's got a PS, I prefer PC).
Well I already got a Ps5 in my basement so…. I will take another for my upstairs so I can play with my dad
Honestly, i think the girl, Amouranth, would pick the ps5 as well lol. She's actually pretty cool!
PS5 please... upgrade so I can play some upcoming games I'm actually interested in... Plus she's young enough to be my granddaughter.
Isn't that the titty streamer who had a whole breakdown about her husband forcing her to do it, then went right back to being a titty streamer like nothing happened?
Pretty sure this is the girl who straight up yeeted her cat over her head cause it was trying to get attention during a stream. F her.
Oh, So This Is Target’s Fault...right
It's true that those at the top can earn millions of dollars, but this is the exception rather than the rule. The average user who monetizes their content will bring in significantly less depending on the platform, number of followers, method of marketing, and the type of content they are creating.
While there is limited research on what's easier to monetize, many top influencers belong to different genres and that suggests intangible factors, such as how authentic an influencer is perceived to be and how well they communicate and connect with their followers, are the most important keys to success.

On top of an unpredictable income, another disadvantage is volatile job security. Social media platforms use algorithms to sort posts on a user’s feed to ensure that we see content that the algorithm deems relevant to us.
But as this technology advances, it's becoming more difficult than ever to predict what's going to be popular and why. Even well-established content creators struggle to diversify their meet the ever-changing demands.

"As a form of independent entrepreneurship, influencing comes with no regulation, training, or support," wrote a team of researchers from the University of Windsor who study this sector.
"The result of this can be young content creators struggling with physical and mental health issues brought on by cyberbullying and high stress."

However, there might be hope after all. Recently, a new social media movement has emerged in response to the fake materialistic nature of influencer culture, called deinfluencing.
This trend involves influencers discouraging their followers from buying overpriced or ineffective products.

"In response to the desire for authenticity, deinfluencers prioritize genuine content and real engagement over the meticulously curated content and commercial partnerships that are common in traditional influencer culture," Omar H. Fares, who is a lecturer in the Ted Rogers School of Retail Management at Toronto Metropolitan University, explained.

According to Fares, deinfluencers are trying to foster a more sustainable approach to consumption. Rather than promoting the latest products, they highlight mindful consumption, sustainability, and the importance of making thoughtful choices.
But these folks will have to try really hard to offset the damage done by all of their entitled peers.

I’ve never had the opportunity to ruin an influencer’s video, but I’m hopeful. However, I DO stay out of the frame for tourists taking photos (and even offer to photograph them), since I live in a touristy city and their sales taxes pay for our pier & other improvements.
PSA: Pandas, if you upvote my posts, I’m blocking you unless you send me MONEY. I have a dozen followers (almost half aren’t family), so go away with your pesky upvotes. PayPal me some money and I’ll reward you with exposure!
There is a staggering amount of stupidity in the world. I guess we Pandas are really glad not to be a part of this garbage!!
Oh OK. I will do it for free IF: What is your target audience? Age, gender, socio-economic background, place of residence, occupation, education and relationship status. If you can answer all these questions ...

I grabbed a girl who decided to lay on a flower display at my grocery store. She just laid on top of it and decided to take selfies. When she yelled at me, I yelled back and security made her pay for ALL the flowers, but shock and awe, she was broke.
You'd think you are the main character in your own show, but really, you're an extra for crowd shots in someone else's show.
Just someone else's? I would say almost everyone else's.

Why do this people still have followers? Oh, ok, their followers are stupid too. Or bots. Stupid bots.
So glad I've never encountered one of these asshats in the wild. At least not yet.
Live your own life. Don't be influenced by anyone. Hopefully these idiots will shut up and go away if they don't get the oxygen of publicity. Most importantly, the ones who involve others in their "pranks" should, and I think will shortly in the UK, be locked up. Be an idiot on your own time, don't muck about with others, or we'll all end up like that Uber Eats guy who pulled a pistol on the bloke hassling him.
We always use to joke, "Don't trust anyone over thirty." I'm now 35 and amazed at how rapidly I have lost touch with social trends. To be honest, I am kinda fine with it.
Influencers: "As I explain in my sure to be bestselling book 'But I'm More Specialier And Importanter Than You'... If you're going to go taking pictures of yourself in public areas with a lot of traffic you COULD take a leaf out of the average movie director's book and go there very early in the morning or late at night when there will be very few people about so you can shoot at your leisure, but this would be missing the point - it doesn't count as influencing unless lots of people are forced to watch! In chapter two, I will supply the numbers of the clinics in each major city which offer reconstructive nose surgery from being punched in the face for just the price of a flattering review!"
I hate how people are like “if you wanna be that guy (the main character/the one everyone likes) you have to do this, that, and these even though you really don’t want to!” like I don’t WANT to be the one everyone likes I just don’t wanna be the one everyone hates. Sorry this kinda ran off into a tangent
I don't normally read the article attached to this post but it's pretty tone-deaf. While we're all here to laugh at these deluded "influencers", it's all about how influencers are monetizing their "craft". 🤨 This is like a tobacco company advertising on an article tearing down the industry!
I don't know any of these people but they inspire me to hate humanity even more, so I guess there's that.
no influencer ever promoted a book titled Life Seemed Good, But. On a website named for a big river in South America. Judge for yourself.
I will never be an influencer but I recommend a book on Amazon titled Life Seemed Good, But.... look for clowns in a jeep. Weird.
this is an example of rampant stupidity. you cannot win, but you outwait it. Dawin's laws of evolution states that. also, 'the ability to speak does not make you intelligent' -Qui-gon
Look, Pandas, if you don't keep downvoting this type of content it will keep appearing. Everyone hates it, yet it has enough positive votes to survive their ad-revenue desires. Vote with your... vote.
Many of these would have been better as the original video rather than 1-2 photos.
All of them would be better on another website than clogging up here.

Most of the people on the list are very wrong for doing the things they're doing but y'all need to chill cause some of you are being way too mean about things that are not even causing the problem like what these people are wearing or how bad they're singing in your opinion or idk what else but chill. That's how you deal with things like these? I'm extremely disappointed with the comments on this post is like I'm surrounded by hate and malice everywhere. BP is supposed to be a chill place. Don't get me wrong, I disagree with these people's behavior as well but I still think we should have the decency to not start calling people names and behaving like this. Analyze the situation but rethink going that far please
Like with all these posts: How do they know it‘s influencers? Most of them just seem like regular idiots. In my view influencers need to be at least somewhat famous or have a certain reach. I highly doubt these people are any of that, i haven‘t seen or heard of them before 🤦🏼♀️.
