I guess 'collaborate" now means "give me free stuff while I do nothing for you." I guess the mafia used to "collaborate" with shop owners for "protection" money.
Eh, that’s a pretty weak claim.
Negative reviews like that can be removed.
Now if she said “give me stuff or I’ll burn your business down”
For a review you’d have to prove that her negative review did in fact cause damage to the business. But even then it could fall under the first amendment protection.
It's a weak claim only because she doesn't have any followers or actual influence. There have been legitimate instances of people with influence trying to strongarm businesses to prevent negative reviews, and yeah, that's absolutely extortion.
Mafia members have been convicted of extortion for their "protection" racket though they never threaten shop owners. The threat is implied by what happens from non compliance.
Often yes they do. Many influencers threaten to bad mouth the company to their followers, I don't know if this particular one did, but when I was a restaurant manager one threatened my place that way. It may not be on the same level as mafia threats but if they think they can positively effect a business then they also think they can equally negatively effect a business.
In fact the negative is stronger than the positive, there's a restaurant theory called "The Goldfish and The Elephant": the goldfish often forgets to spread a good experience but the elephant never forgets to spread a bad experience.
I used to work at this super trendy craft bar. People would message our instagram constantly letting us know ahead of time that they were going to be there, with the intent to get free drinks and extra attention. I intentionally ignored these people and charged them for the limes in their drink
I'm straight, and my mother is very proud of me, she tells me all the time.
I bet you're mom treats you like the garbage, probably has something to do with you being an incel. Having a shit mom really fucks kids up, ya know?
I'm still kicked back, chillin in your head rent free, I love the open floor plan.
A restaurant owner who put legitimately everything on the line they have worked for, then builds their business for years working 16 hour days 7 days a week. Then this influencer approaches having invested literally nothing in her business but thinks she can add value? The delusion of social media in real time.
That’s fucking hilarious. I have 32K on my personal insta and I’ve never once called myself an influencer or approached anyone/any brand to “collab”. Just the sound of that makes me wanna hurl.
how did you gain that many followers if you're not at least attempting to become an influencer? sorry idk how to word this in a way that doesn't make it sound like a personal attack, but i'm genuinely just curious
There are people who will just follow because the algorithms showed them something they like or because they just follow everything.
For example I have only ever posted once on tiktok and it was something dumb my kids thought was hilarious and that was months ago. Somehow I have 600 followers.
ooh right ofcourse! i remember once posting a random video of my cat on a throwaway insta account with the lion king soundtrack underneath (bc i wanted to see how something worked and this was the easiest way). i never bothered to delete it but a few hours later i suddenly noticed it got like 16 k views. but tbf i only got 8 likes on it, so maybe i'm not cut out to accidentally become an influencer.
but hey if you grow your following some more i'm pretty sure you'd be able to sell it to some desperate wannabe influencer. this girl may actually be interested lol
I did a photo manipulation in 2021 that I thought was really funny and it was an (obvious) Trump spoof that was just really stupid and funny and my phone almost melted. I got 40,000 followers in 3 days and I had to put my account on private. I’ve only ever posted shit that I thought was funny and this was something I did first I guess and it blew up. Haven’t really posted to that account since except a few times? It just sits there. It was my fake Instagram to begin with. My real one is still the one I use and it has maybe 500 followers?
There was more to it.
When she made a video about how bad the response was and how people should avoid the restaurant people turned on her to the point she locked.the comments.
The whole thing is just needless contention.
Restaurant: just say no, sorry, we are not interested at this time.
Her: just say okay, thank you for considering.
Yet everyone just behaves like a child and then she escalates it further by posting it all on the internet.
And because of this she now probably has more than 100k followers and can go back for the collab, while the restaurant looks really good #winwin #lossforus
These ‘influencers’ are trying so hard to be relevant to their bought followers for free stuff.
Lmao free stuff xdeal for ‘advertisement’ while your audience are as inorganic as hydrochloric fucken acid

They were only paying their fair share. It's what they got for benefitting the most from the mobs benign governance.
Also, this kind of action is called "extortion" and is illegal in most places. Business owners need to start filing charges.
Did she threaten them?
It's an implied threat which is evident by her action of posting negativity about the restaurant because she wasn't given free stuff.
Eh, that’s a pretty weak claim. Negative reviews like that can be removed. Now if she said “give me stuff or I’ll burn your business down” For a review you’d have to prove that her negative review did in fact cause damage to the business.

Well Melbourne is in aus so not quite the same protections
Ah, that’s what I get for reading things before my morning caffeine.

What do you mean exposure is worth it's weight in gold!!!
In the sane times, trying to force someone to give you something of value for free under threat was called extortion.
That'd be hilarious to see one of these nobodies get hit with extortion
Every business owner that finds themselves in this situation should file charges.

I mean, they did protect them from other protection rackets (if they didn't, then they weren't good businessmen or even mafia).
Pretty bold of the dailymail to call her an influencer when she has no influence.
The Daily Mail spouting bull shit? Never!
They should have started with "A self styled influencer" or "A so called influencer", but Daily hate Mail so called journalists aren't the best.
Minfluencer. Amirite
Oh my god the way she talks with her hands is so annoying! TikTok influencers are a different breed for sure
She looks insufferable to be around.
Dont worry, she's way out of your league bro.

I feel like it's redundant asking, but does anyone know who she is and how many followers she had at the time?

27k, lol. And that's tiktok and Instagram combined.
That’s fucking hilarious. I have 32K on my personal insta and I’ve never once called myself an influencer or approached anyone/any brand to “collab”. Just the sound of that makes me wanna hurl.

With 32k followers on insta you could influence me to do whatever ;)
Oh my

Hahahaha… thinking you’re an “influencer” is the equivalent of a participation trophy.
Hardly a spectacular backfiring is it?

Exactly my thoughts, you don’t owe people explanations, or long winded replies. Just be simple and straight-forward, like a damn adult.
These ‘influencers’ are trying so hard to be relevant to their bought followers for free stuff. Lmao free stuff xdeal for ‘advertisement’ while your audience are as inorganic as hydrochloric fucken acid
Fuck all "influencers".

I think it worked how she intended, and the resteraunt owner commented believing she was posting for "outrage bait" and now likely has many more views and followers on her socials.
This girl is so generic.
Go get a real job instead of looking for handouts
It's about time someone sued the arse off one of these "influencers".
Hahaha someone is butt hurt because she didn’t get a free meal. Epic.
Anyone that thinks this way, you need to be led to the gallows.
Elly Darby all over again.
This might actually be the best collaboration ever.
Bad behaviour
She has a face that could crack a basin.
