TikToker Mikayla Nogueira under fire for claiming it\u2019s hard to be an influencer TikTok: MikaylanogueiraTikTok beauty star Mikayla Nogueira, who has over 13 million followers on the platform, is facing criticism for comments she made in a 2021 video, where she explained the difficulties of her influencer career. Although the original video is over a year old and now deleted, it went viral in September 2022 after spreading on Twitter and Reddit, before making the rounds on TikTok again. In the video, Nogueira responds to a comment suggesting she tries a \u201c9-5\u201d job to see how hard it is. \u201cEvery single day I get up at 6am,\u201d Nogueira said. \u201cI spend about 5-6 hours filming video content that ranges from three to four videos, and then I spend a few hours editing that video content. Then I have to work on my other social media profiles.\u201d Mikayla Nogueira: \u201cTry being an influencer\u201d She finished the video by saying \u201ctry being an influencer for a day,\u201d implying that it is difficult and that the hardship is not recognized by non-influencers. The sound \u201cI just finished working, it\u2019s 5:19. Try being an influencer for a day, just try it,\u201d has been used by countless TikTokers to compare it to their own work day. TikToker \u2018styledbyam\u2019 posted her response, which has accrued over 2 million views, explaining that after a full day of university, they now have to \u201cserve food and drinks for 8 hours.\u201d Mikayla has so far avoided responding to the backlash, but her comment section on her latest videos are now full of people discussing the issue, either positive or negative. Her last video, published on September 23, has over 11 million views, which is about three times more than her regular uploads. In the comments, there is fierce debate about her now infamous TikTok video. \u201cPeople are really cruel. That\u2019s all I\u2019m going to say. Love you, Mikayla,\u201d one fan wrote. Others joked, \u201cBestie take a day off you\u2019ve been working so hard.\u201d Another commented, \u201cGod this looks so much harder than being threatened almost every day in retail and customer service.\u201d Many are also anticipating a response video from Mikayla, but as of the time of writing, there is no public response.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
