The “Let them eat cake” moment was the pivotal moment that turned the anger into a blocking campaign, when a famous American influencer on TikTok called[url=https://www.alsumaria.tv/entity/1671494228/%D9%87%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%8A %D8%AE%D9%84%D9%8A%D9%84/ar/]Haley Khalil[/url]“Let them eat cake” outside the Met Gala, according to international media, including the network[url=https://www.alsumaria.tv/entity/354789780/NBC News/ar/]NBC News[/url]American.
These insulting words, often attributed to Marie Antoinette, Queen of France during the French Revolution, have become in the popular imagination synonymous with an elite disconnected from the lives of citizens unable to even find bread, while proposing cakes as an alternative to bread.
The American model, who has about 9.9 million followers on Tik Tok, was wearing a dress also adapted from the fashion of the French Queen. The publication of this video on May 7 caused an angry campaign against the model and celebrities who were divorced from reality.
The video coincided with a famine crisis experienced by people[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]Even just two days before Khalil’s video, Cindy McCain, head of the United Nations World Food Programme, said in a press interview that North[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]He suffers from "mass famine."
So; Users began calling for the blocking campaign under the name Blockout, or "digitine" or digital guillotine, in reference to the guillotine that was used to execute some of France's ruling leaders after the success of the French Revolution.
It seems that the campaign had a great impact on Khalil, not only from the audience, but also from the Met Gala attendees. She apologized in a video she posted on her TikTok account on May 10, in which she said that she did not have an actual invitation to attend the party and only participated in the event as a host with the “E News!” program, and she justified her use of the voice by saying that it was a common voice on TikTok.
While she responded to questions about why she did not talk about what was happening in ...[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]She said: “I am not knowledgeable enough to talk about the matter in a meaningful or educational way,” and did not mention “Palestine” or “[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]"or"[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]" In the video, although this is the clear reason for the campaign against her.
It seems that her apology was not accepted, and was delayed, as the campaign had already been launched against all celebrities, as supporters of the blocking campaign began publishing lists of celebrities and their companies to be blocked.
The campaign began with the names of people such as the Israeli actor and the former soldier Gal Gadot, reality TV star Kim Kardashian, and American singer[url=https://www.alsumaria.tv/entity/2202911402/%D8%AA%D8%A7%D9%8A%D9%84%D9%88%D8%B1 %D8%B3%D9%88%D9%8A%D9%81%D8%AA/ar/]Taylor Swift[/url], and British singer[url=https://www.alsumaria.tv/entity/1766920992/%D9%87%D8%A7%D8%B1%D9%8A %D8%B3%D8%AA%D8%A7%D9%8A%D9%84%D8%B2/ar/]Harry Stiles[/url].
The campaign was not limited to the Western world only, as it extended to preparing lists of names of Arab stars and celebrities, and even Palestinians, who had not spoken about the war since its outbreak, or the public believed that their positions were shameful.
On the other hand, Iraqi pages and platforms called for participation in the global campaign and ban Iraqi artists and celebrities who ignore talk about the war in the Gaza Strip.[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]And support the Palestinian cause through their official pages.
How does banning celebrities affect them?
The aim of this move is to reduce the profits that celebrities make through advertising on social media.
Although many celebrities lost a portion of their audience and the number of followers decreased due to some simply unfollowing, some experts consider the ban to be more effective than simply unfollowing.
Instagram says about blocking that it restricts the blocked person's posts from being viewed, liked, commented and mentioned in posts or sent messages.
This means that the famous personality lost a number of his followers due to this blocking campaign, which will affect the usual reach and interaction numbers, but technology experts said that blocking is more effective as a protest strategy than unfollowing.
The impact of unfollowing on a celebrity's overall audience and engagement metrics is minimal, said Eddie Borges Rey, an associate professor based at Northwestern University in Qatar.
The university professor, whose research work deals with social media and algorithms, said that celebrities rely heavily on social media reach and engagement rates to attract and maintain advertising deals.
He explained in statements to Al Jazeera, reported by the website in its English version, that when someone unfollows a celebrity, he simply stops seeing the celebrity’s posts on their home pages.
but; Content can still appear indirectly through their search pages or algorithm-driven pages like Page[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]Explore or For You pages on TikTok and X.
Pointing out that even non-followers watch celebrity content if they do not block it, and therefore; Unfollowing doesn't significantly hurt a celebrity's reach.
But the ban; This means cutting off any interaction with that person's content. Reducing audience engagement and size prompts social media algorithms to deprioritize filtering this content to a wider audience.
Which means that if more people block a celebrity, their posts will be less visible across the platform, not only to users who have just blocked them, but also to users to whom the algorithm was likely to filter this character's content.
Decreased reach and exposure can prompt advertisers to reduce ad amounts or even target other, more accessible figures, with a direct impact on their ad revenue.
Was the campaign to ban celebrities a success?
It is true that the campaign began a few days ago, and it is true that the aforementioned social media platforms do not provide statistics on the number of people who blocked a specific account, but some platforms and followers spoke of the loss of hundreds of thousands of followers from the accounts of some celebrities.
The American National Public Radio (NPR) network reported that the famous American singer[url=https://www.alsumaria.tv/entity/2202911402/%D8%AA%D8%A7%D9%8A%D9%84%D9%88%D8%B1 %D8%B3%D9%88%D9%8A%D9%81%D8%AA/ar/]Taylor Swift[/url]She lost nearly 300,000 followers on TikTok and about 50,000 followers on Instagram over the past week.
While the English version of the Turkish Radio and Television Corporation TRT reported that the American actress and singer[url=https://www.alsumaria.tv/entity/3621945586/%D8%B3%D9%8A%D9%84%D9%8A%D9%86%D8%A7 %D8%BA%D9%88%D9%85%D9%8A%D8%B2/ar/]Selena Gomez[/url]I lost a million followers on Instagram and 100,000 on the X platform (formerly Twitter).
