The War Between Influencers and Celebrities
Hey everyone welcome back to my channel!! For today's video I thought we could check out something I've noticed in the past few years with influencers becoming a lot more common to see in "traditional celebrity spaces," that being the argument on whether influencers should be at them at all. The other argument that follows pretty close behind is whether influencers should even be considered celebrities at this point. With more influencers either from KZfaq, Tik Tok or Instagram showing up at bigger celebrity events like the MET Gala or the Grammys, it seems like every year this argument gets brought up again and people are still equally as shocked and annoyed that they were invited in the first place. Honestly seems like no matter which influencer is invited whether it's Liza Koshy and James Charles or Emma Chamberlain and Addison Rae, there are always people really angry about it so I thought we could check it out especially with the 2022 MET Gala happening last monday.
If I'm being honest I think these days I'm a lot more neutral on the situation considering whether you like it or not, for younger generations it's impossible to deny that influencers are becoming their celebrities. And if these massive events and awards shows want to keep younger people tuning in (especially considering most of them are struggling right now to hold onto viewership in the first place), they have to start paying attention to them. But it is pretty entertaining watching people on twitter freak out over it all tbh lol. I think this is definitely one of those topics where a lot of people are going to have different takes on it so if you're down definitely share in the comments! I'm curious to know what you guys think about it all

it's not the normal nostalgia though where people lament the way say their old town had a pie shop that went out of business and is just gone. the way people hate the influencers is like a new iteration of the same masses hating on new rich and then act super obsequiously to the old rich phenomenon. you have people that legitimately thought regular celebrities were lazy elites suddenly coming to their defence, this kind of inconsistency is not regular nostalgia it is pretty much an evolution of how people who hate old rich suddenly respect old rich because they hate any new rich or upstarts that much.

For me, I've always thought influencer was more the job description itself. Like, they may become an actor, but their primary claim to fame and wealth was influencing their audience to buy things online. Using their personality or looks to sell things and profit off of the views themselves, rather someone with a job in fame (actor, singer) who happens to have an account. Think Taylor Swift and Charli Dimellio: I think both sing, dance, and started young with an audience of young girls. But Taylor makes money and fame in music and performance, with the occasional side promotion. Charli makes money off of promotion and presence, with the occasional side music or acting.
@mzmoon100 2 жыл бұрын
Another example I just thought of, celebrity makeup artist versus makeup influencer. A celebrity makeup artist may sell their own line, but is known for their work on other people and pioneering techniques in professional or celebrity spaces. A makeup influencer sells their personality, appearance, and other people's products. They may have some skill as well, but that's not the focus of the appeal. Think maybe Pat McGrath versus James Charles?

I think all the hate is mainly due to the specific influencers that keep being invited everywhere, i.e. Addison, Charli, James Charles etc, cause the general public doesn’t really like them and finds them annoying (rightly so). Like you said, if the TikTokers who actually created the viral dances were invited to the Grammy’s, or really fashionable/ fashion loving influencers were invited to the MET Gala, then I don’t think people would mind, and these influencers would be way more deserving.

Hard agree. I think people are more upset at the influencers themselves than the idea of influencers being there. I know this example isn't influencer, but RDCworld has been on commercials and getting to meet celebrities and nobody minds- in fact they celebrate them because we see genuinely hardworking, likable, creative people getting their props. I don't hate Addison, James, or ppl like Charli, but there are others I'd rather see in their spot who I genuinely enjoy. Again, such as the creators of said tiktok dances.

there's definitely an element of elitism/gatekeeping and parasocial relationship there. When the people you've "grown up" with start to mingle with the faces you only see in TV and films, it erases the illusion of the influencers being your "friend" and the celebrities being "untouchable". Observing celebrities before the rise of social media has also been "safe" in a way, where you watch them in their little charade without really having a first hand experience in the interaction, thus removing yourself from whatever drama or controversies they have. With influencers attending you don't really get that clear separation of you vs them. Influencers build their brand from being relatable, while (most) celebrities from their curated, strictly managed public persona. Then you also get the issue of people who worked their asses off, even with nepotism, to have a place in a very rigid and conservative industry brushing shoulders with people out of their teens who get famous from a very notorious social media. Not saying it's true, but I get how it would seem unfair to a lot of people

The influencer vs celeb war is definitely about celebrities feeling like anyone/generally normal people can also be allowed into the same events as them or be close to their level of fame for doing “nothing”, which disrupts their cloud of elitism. It’s funny that there is celebs complaining abt influencers achieving this level of fame for tik tok dances or content creating while they were nepotism babies or children of already famous ppl who had their careers handed to them. I think ppl need to also realize that a lot of celebs also got famous for really nothing.

The influencer vs. celebrity debate kind of feels like the new money vs old money debate. Thinking about the situation like this makes me happy that “influencers” are now getting access to more prestigious events. Even though I’m also not happy with people like Addison Rae or any other TikTok person, there were other meaningful “influencers” that I was excited to see. Eugene Lee Yang,Jackie Aina, and NikkieTutorials were examples of influencers who actually make meaningful art. It’s just that they don’t have support of Hollywood or traditional media to back them up. I honestly care about those 3 more than any other actor that was arrived. I definitely would want Eugene to come back to the Met Gala (with months to prepare). He would kill it.

As I see it, an influencer is someone who you cannot really say to be anything else. Like yes they make content, but they're not an actor, a media critic, a streamer etc. I'm not saying it's inherently a bad thing, but that kind of explains why that whole category of people is vulnerable to critism like that

oh yeah I got it, they didn't rose to fame through something but rather through their own personalities, I guess.

I never understood why people get mad at Addison Rae for getting famous by luck and pretty privileges , but they’re okay with kendall and Kylie being at the met gala even tho they owe their fame to their rich family and their sister’s sex tape. Even Ariana Grande, the blackpink members, the smith siblings and many other of their faves are nepotism babies, but they only complain about pretty privileges and luck privileges. Same with Bella Poarch, idk but I was happy to see someone getting so successful without being a nepotism baby, but people shit on her, because she had it « easy » and they praise lily rose Depp for being Johnny depp and Vanessa paradis’s daughter. I sometimes feel that it can rooted in envy and jealousy, because when they see someone going from rags to riches they can’t help but feeling angry and think that it could have been them, if he algorithme on tiktok chooses them, but it’s okay when it’s a rich celeb kid, cause they couldn’t help it anyway.
