Social media influencers have quickly become a major presence in our society, with their massive followings and seemingly glamorous lifestyles. However, with fame and popularity comes a sense of entitlement for some influencers, leading to questionable behavior that often goes unchecked. One recent example of entitled influencer behavior that has sparked controversy is that of Mikayla Nogueira.
Nogueira, a beauty influencer with over 1 million followers on Instagram, has faced backlash for her entitled and disrespectful behavior towards others. In a now-deleted Instagram story, Nogueira publicly shamed a brand for not inviting her to an event, claiming that she was being “bullied” by the brand. This entitled attitude drew criticism from many, with some accusing Nogueira of lacking humility and gratitude for the opportunities she has been given.
Not only did Nogueira’s behavior come off as entitled, but it also highlighted a larger issue within the influencer community. Many influencers have been known to exhibit entitled behavior, believing that they deserve special treatment and privileges simply because of their online presence. This entitlement can manifest in demanding free products, expecting VIP treatment, or throwing tantrums when things don’t go their way.
But is this behavior truly justified? As influencers continue to gain influence and power in the digital space, it is important to hold them accountable for their actions. Nogueira’s entitled behavior serves as a reminder that influencers are not above the rules, and they should be held to the same standards as everyone else.
While it’s easy to get caught up in the glitz and glamour of the influencer world, it’s important to remember that behind the perfectly curated social media posts, influencers are real people with real flaws. In the case of Mikayla Nogueira, her entitled behavior may have tarnished her reputation, but it also opens up a larger conversation about the importance of humility, gratitude, and respect in the influencer community.
In the end, it’s up to us as consumers to hold influencers accountable for their behavior and demand a higher standard of ethics in the digital space. As for Mikayla Nogueira, only time will tell if she can bounce back from this controversy and learn from her entitled behavior.

Did Makayla pay you to say this ish? Because this is not it. She's privileged to have her platform, and if it is so bad, hard, and depressing long-term, then don't do it. She also caused many of her own issues by doing preventable things like lying, filters, and not disclosing ads. 95% of the "hate" could have been easily preventable.
Girl we love you but I can't say I agree with what you've said in the begining
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8Pt_XegmSg This video covers the controversy very respectfully.
Knowing how much this chick has flat out LIED to her followers (not to mention her fake accent) it's really disheartening to see Charlotte defending her. YUCK.
Never actually knew of Mikayla up until now…. Bitch…. 12 hours on an oil Feild and I don't even make ½ of what you make…. And honestly mentally I'm not doing well either…. I just don't have thousands of dollars to spend… Still struggling on just bills. Sure you may work 9 hours…. But the money you bring in…… Pay per hour….. You should be putting in MORE hpurs
People love to "one up." OH, your job is hard? No, it can't be! POOR ME!
There is an argument to be made about how hard it is being an influencer…
It's just that Mikayla is probably the WORST person to make that type of argument.
