Kuwaiti social media celebrity Sondos Al-Qattan is on the radar as she lashed out controversial comments on her video. This led to some of her sponsors dropping their relations with her. Al-Qattan apparently made a ‘rant’ about domestic workers and it did not end well for the social media star. After the incident, a few of her sponsors stopped supporting her.
Chelsea Beautique was one of the brands that cut ties with Sondos. They were called out by a netizen on July, 21. After being seeing the said netizen’s tweet, its social media account replied instantly. The brand thanked the account for expressing to them their concerns. After which, the established beauty company finally announced their separation from the social media star.
In the video that she made, she referred to them as ‘servants’. She disagreed about the idea of servants having hold of their passports and having days off because she worries about losing money if ever they ran away.
In the end, she claimed that she did not want to have a Filipino maid anymore. She emphasized as well how she disagrees with the new law.
Despite being on the receiving end of things, the social media star still chose not to apologize for her actions.
What happened just shows how responsible social media influencers need to be when it comes to the content that they release. These incidents already happened in the past but let’s just hope that less of it, or at best, none of it happen again. We now live in the world where these types of comments are no longer acceptable. Hopefully, other social media influencers learn from this incident.
