Is attention the ultimate addiction? This week, we’re diving into the world of influencers who will do anything to stay in the spotlight. We’re talking about Bonnie Blue, the OnlyFans star who announced she’s pregnant—but has no idea who the father is—and plans to live stream the birth for her audience, but now she says she's not pregnant! Then there’s Belle Gibson, the wellness influencer who convinced the world she had terminal brain cancer and built an empire on fake cures—only to be exposed as a fraud. Now, with the Netflix docuseries Apple Cider Vinegar revisiting her deception, we’re looking at how far people will go to sell a lie.
But where’s the line between extreme self-promotion and outright manipulation? What makes people believe these stories, and why do some influencers get away with it for so long? We’re breaking down the psychology behind attention-seeking, the blurred boundaries of online fame, and the messy consequences that come when the truth finally catches up. Buckle up—this one’s wild.
