Netizens react after Cyan Boujee allegedly loses Instagram followers
Netizens filled the comment section with a mix of reactions. While others argued that Cyan Boujee never had a million followers to begin with, others shared screenshots showing that the influencer was losing followers. Some argued that South Africans were focusing on the wrong person.
Here are some of the reactions:
@MigthyLiverbird argued:
“Instead of fighting the root of the problem, they are fighting another victim. As South Africans, we will take time to find peace.”
@Shiax25 urged:
“It is now high time we citizens make sure every celebrity who believes they are larger than life feels the consequences of their reckless behaviour. Let us stop hyping women/men who feed our young society nonsense. Be it a podcast, actor, celeb, wannabes, I say, ‘Let there be carnage!’”
@LeratoLately said:
“And I think people are even more mad at her apology. Zero regrets nor remorse. She has a heart of stone, and she’s really in this game for the bag🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️”
@Blxck_Phantom asked:
“Why were people even following her?”
