15 Out-Of-Touch Influencers Who Have A Super Bad Case Of Main Character Syndrome

"I'm an influencer. I've got more people following my Instagram than you've got subscribed to your sub. You need to learn how to respect people who are better than you if you ever want them to do a favor for you."

Influencers, for the most part, have been given a bad name. But there are tons of content creators out there who are just normal people producing genuinely engaging, thought-provoking, or informative content without taking advantage of their followers or thinking they're better than literally everyone else. And then, of course, there are some out there whose egos grow with every follower they obtain, and eventually, they become so out-of-touch that they start doing some very selfish and entitled things. Here are 15 of those influencers:

1. This influencer who got mad at her Uber driver for ruining her “aesthetic exit” from her apartment and then made him wait while she filmed the whole thing:

2. This influencer who thought being "wildly known as [their] only videographer" was an acceptable form of payment:

3. This fitness influencer who got mad at a man for just sitting down on a public park bench:

4. This yoga influencer who thought this would be an okay thing to do at a literal Holocaust memorial:
