Recently, it has been on the news that influencers contribute to thinness craze. Some people who have been criticized for contributing to thinness-hate on social media are Tilda Törnqvist and Lisa “Misslisibell” Zenito.
Tilda Törnqvist has responded to the criticism in a Tiktok video where she talks about how her weight has gone up and down and that she does not mean to encourage thinness-obsession.
Misslisibell has also raised the topic on her YouTube channel, where she says that she is currently suffering from an eating disorder.
“On my social media I’ve talked about eating disorders over the years. Because it’s a topic I can relate to, and I’ve done it a lot over the years. But then I’ve always talked about periods where I’ve felt good. Then I’ve always talked in the past tense, I’ve never talked about it when I kind of have a relapse,” she says in the video.
Another influencer who has been open about her eating disorder is Bianca Ingrosso. She has talked about her eating disorder on her own social channels and in the reality series “Wahlgren’s World”.
Despite that, it often happens that Bianca Ingrosso gets hate when she posts scantily clad pictures and shows off her body.

“This is dangerous Bianca”
The followers are not impressed with Bianca Ingrosso’s bikini, they are instead angry with how Ingrosso chooses to show off her body. Several of the comments suggest that she contributes to unhealthy ideals and thinness-obsession.
Here are some comments:
“No this has nothing to do with the bikini.”
“Was waiting to see how long it would take for you to post this pic. Sad.”
“My daughter is not allowed to follow Bianca anymore, she was a big idol of Bianca but her self-awareness and body started to change.”
“Pathetic picture! What do you want to convey with it? To be thin and have a flat stomach!? Bad of you to give such signals to young girls and so on! Your picture makes one feel bad! Showing off the bikini you could have done in so many different ways but you choose to make others feel bad!”
“It’s downright dangerous to follow her. Young girls should learn that they can do without fillers, botox, unnatural bodies.”
“Lost my beloved daughter to anorexia almost three years ago. This is dangerous Bianca.”
