Targeting Bots: Are Celebrities Viewing Your Stories?

As much as we would love to think our favorite celebrity has taken the time out of their busy lives to look at ours, sadly, this isn’t the case. 

I spend a lot of time on Reddit, especially topics surrounding social media management and promotion. 

Today, I woke up to likes from days ago and I guess people are truly seeing the big picture.

Celebrities ARE out of work. They are not generating income. If we aren’t getting an honest days labor with a few hundred streams, neither are they. 

The rat race is real. Be mindful of who’s contacting you via DMS. They are as desperate and scammy as the next Spotify “curator” and more. They know you’re desperate for clout. They peak interest by “viewing your story” and then they hit you with a sales pitch. 

Just because they are celebrities, it doesn’t mean they won’t scam you. They’re hurting for that gullible artist with no management, copyrights, trademarks and education on the entertainment business.

Dear influencers and blue check muthafukkahs....why ALL OF A SUDDEN are you climbing into our dms and offering us your platform to promote. What happened. Money must be tight?
