'Perfect Match's Francesca Farago claims someone is 'paying creators' to make anti-Hailey Bieber videos
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Social media star Francesca Farago is taking a stand against cyberbullies trying to bring “new mom” Hailey Bieber down.
Farago, known for her participation in the reality show ‘Too Hot to Handle’, recently opened up about the inner workings of social media influencing when she claimed that someone "is paying creators to do that trend making fun of Hailey," while adding that she thinks of it as “so mean," BuzzFeed reported.
The ‘Perfect Match’ alum, who often shares snippets of her life with her twins with fiance Jesse Sullivan, shared in a recent post that even she was offered a hefty sum of money to spew hatred against the wife of Justin Bieber.
Francesca Farago was offered money to join the ‘trend making fun' of Hailey Bieber
Francesca Farago’s candid confession about the backdrop of the proliferation of social media videos mocking the 28-year-old supermodel came after a video trend terming Hailey to be a “psycho stalker” went viral on the internet. It is noteworthy to mention that the videos are often filled with inaccuracies about Hailey’s life.
In a string of videos that have since been storming the charts, the creator insinuated that Hailey managed to snag her pop superstar husband only by carefully stalking him.
In another trend, women have been dramatically claiming that their male partners think that they have been brought together by "fate,” as the video cuts to a clip of Hailey laughing.
Referencing the current trend, Farago said, "Everyone's calling themselves Hailey Bieber, because they stalk their man and that's how they got them. It's funny but it's also mean."
She explained, "Sometimes me and Jesse get paid to do a trend on TikTok. The person who started the trend, or the person who owns the song that's on the trend, will pay creators to do that trend and to use that song.”
Nevertheless, the reality star shared that though she is not entirely sure who the person is, but admits that there is someone who "is paying creators to do that trend making fun of Hailey.” She added, “I think that is so mean."
She further admitted that in the meantime, she realized that in the trend "girls are also making fun of themselves.”
Farago added, "They offered me a decent amount of money to do it. And I was like, no. Even if it's like, still funny, light-hearted, whatever, it's low-key not. Maybe I'm just being dramatic, but she's a new mom, it's so mean to have this much hate on her."
Francesca Farago opened up about the importance of ‘media literacy’
After Farago’s initial video went viral, she shared another video on her Snapchat account, saying that she was “glad” her initial video titled “Bullying Hailey isn’t cool” was being shared on various platforms, as she emphasized, "It's important to have media literacy as a society."
Farago further added that following her bombshell video, she had been spammed with "hundreds" of hate comments from a handful of accounts who also accused her of being a "liar."
She further explained, "Hailey definitely didn't reach out to me and offer to pay me," before adding, "I would post screenshots of the messages I got...but I could definitely fake those if I wanted to. It's not proof. And I did show these messages to Hailey. She can do with those what she wants to."
