Bad Week: Nikita Dragun under fire for claiming Valentino shut down their store for her

Beauty influencer Nikita Dragun was slammed for claiming Valentino shut down their store exclusively to let her shop after internet sleuths discovered it wasn’t actually the case.

Nikita posted a story to her Instagram of her in the store with the caption “Seen strolling through the branch’s glittering silver corridors, the story states “@masionvalentino shutting down the store for me and treating me to a shopping spree has me acting up!!”

However, the internet began to suspect her claims pretty quickly and went digging in an effort to catch out the guru. Turns out, they did just that.

Nikita has over 3 million subscribers on YouTube.

A glance at Valentino’s official website shows that the stores are only open for customers via “curbside pickup” or “by appointment.”

As you can imagine, as soon as word got out about this, the internet was quick to criticize her. One response that garnered over a thousand likes simply stated, “Talk about a God complex…”

Bad Week: MrBeast Burger trends on Twitter after raw food images

Popular Youtuber MrBeast launched his very own burger restaurant back in December 2020, and since then he’s managed to expand it into a whole delivery chain that’s now gone international.

But on May 15, the outlet’s name began to trend on Twitter for all the wrong reasons.

Users shared images of food they or others claimed to have received from the YouTuber’s burger chain, that showed uncooked chicken, burnt burgers, or generally unappealing meals.

Some tweets calling out MrBeast Burger even got tens of thousands of likes, with people joining in the trend to share their own underwhelming experiences from the chain.

The YouTuber’s new project has received decidedly mixed reviews since launch, with some happy, and some not so happy customers. But as more locations continue to open, things may become more consistent over time.
