I got fired for dragging boring NYC influencers in…
Let it go or be let go.
After harping on how “boring” New York City fashion influencers are, a social media content material creator was canned for her feedback.
Bridget, who goes by @martinifeeny on social media, posted a long-winded rant — which scored 2.4 million views on TikTok — about how she thinks Manhattan-based creators are “boring as f–k” as a result of they’re “carbon copies of one another.”
Despite the overwhelming majority of viewers agreeing with Bridget in the feedback, she was in the end fired from her job at “the biggest luxury fashion brand in the world” as a result of of her viral video.
“Do you guys want to know what’s crazy? Yeah, I lost my job because of that original video,” she revealed in a follow-up clip posted this week.
“I worked for the biggest luxury fashion brand in the world…That’s why I was bored because they’re obsessed with those girls. It’s crazy, it’s like the only people they work with.”
Despite by no means naming creators explicitly, viewers speculated that Bridget was referring to fashion and way of life influencers Brigette and Danielle Pheloung after Brigette, who goes by @acquiredstyle, posted a since-deleted response video.
She, together with a number of different 20-something NYC-based content material creators, responded to Bridget’s feedback, which viewers say “struck a nerve.”
“Don’t let them bully you,” wrote one commenter. “Acquired style felt seen by this so you’re absolutely correct.”
“The amount of influencers that took personal offence to this, and felt the need to chime in is crazy,” another person chimed in. “You hit a nerve. I hope you stick around, and are very successful. Your opinion is necessary.”
“I can only see so many GRWM of everyone doing their makeup they exact same, wearing the exact same workout sets, and sitting in their bare white walled beige aesthetic high rise apartment,” lamented one other.
While Bridget went as far as to say “influencer culture ruined” New York, others suggested displaying more kindness.
“Maybe we should just stop hating on women? I’ve never seen a single video of men shaming other men like this,” wrote on particular person. “Let people dress, copy, paste, do whatever they want. It’s none of our business.”
“This gives bitter/jealous energy so badddd,” scolded one other. “Cause why do you care?”
The Post has reached out to Bridget for remark.
Bridget stated she by no means imagined anybody would see her unique video, saying she “didn’t think anyone would give a damn.”
She stated she was impressed by watching New York Fashion Week content material on her “For You” web page back in February.
“It kind of baffled me,” she informed Vulture. “I was like, how are these girls sitting front row at shows and then doing Amazon trips? Like, do they even care about fashion? Do they even care about sustainability?”
But it appears her employer didn’t see the underlying message.
“God forbid you like speak your mind to your 90 followers at the time. You get clipped… crazy right?” Bridget stated in her latest video.
“Anyway, stay boring, I guess. Because if you’re not and you speak your mind, clipped! Done!”
