Experts warn of the risks of influencer negatively impacting women who follow it.
At the time at the first pregnancy, Virginia found that the examination that determines the baby’s gender was being auctioned by an employee of the lab where she performed the test.
“Galera, it’s complicated because, unfortunately, I’m not having more privacy at all. We talked to the laboratory supervisor and she said that the exam was not even ready, so it is impossible to be happening (an auction). So, beware of anyone buying the guy’s guess… He may be guessing and you’re falling for it,” the influencer warned.
Subsequently, the couple were accused of fat phobia on social media after Virginia made a post on the stories where she was going from a video about binge eating.
Another controversy involving the influencer was when she was accused of asking for “Gratuite Justice” (a benefit guaranteed by law for less favored people economically), during the lawsuit against the agency ADR, of her former Pedro Rezende. Finally, the request was denied by the judge, after all she is a millionaire and does not need the appeal. But Virginia defended herself by stating that she was poorly educated at the time.

Super exposure
In fact, the super exposure is also always a source of controversy and criticism of Virginia, which is often accused of exposing her daughters too much. On several occasions she suffered severe criticism due to her behavior. For example, she made the announcement of the Maria’s Baby brand shortly after the birth of her second daughter, which generated many criticisms:
“Mercy, the child is barely born and Virginia is already making money on her daughters,” a netizen posted on the subject. “Surreal as the people take advantage of any time to make money. Virginia is full of points, just got away and is advertising product. Mercy,” commented another.
But the influencer made a point of defending herself.
“Doing mine with my family, without having to go over anyone or offend. Gratitude to all who accompany, believe and like us! Here you will only see much love, joy and hard work. It seems that everything we do for our children has a much greater weight, and that mark is theirs and for them! Of course, with my administration, until they can and want to take care of everything on their own,” she said.
But what Maria Flor’s dads disliked were from the comments saying the newborn baby was ugly. According to Virginia, “Zé Felipe is p? of life with the woman who said that Maria is ugly.” She also revealed that she was very saddened by the comment. “I’m not going to lie: I was also angry at the time, but it’s been anger. I understood that a person to make a comment like this has to be very unloving,” she said.
Virginia Fonseca target of haters
Recently, Virginia Fonseca and Tata Estaniecki are leading a mess with a podcast production company. In short, the confusion happened after videographers responsible for the podcast of the two stopped broadcasting the Tata program to start recording the Virginia podcast. Then, soon after, images of Tata weeping appeared due to the uncomfortable situation.
Even though it was not the fault of either, some Virginia haters sided with the Tata and accused her of being envious.
“I knew that Tata and Virginia would end up fighting because Virginia can’t see ABOVONE making success that it has to copy or harm the person. She was at Pod Delas a week and the other she has already invented a podcast with Camila Loures. Too envious,” one netizen commented.
However, everything has settled and Virginia continues to share his life, including sex life, with his followers. In this way, it keeps your accounts engaged and increasing the number of followers and zeros in your already millionaire account.
Base of We Pink
The latest controversy involving Virginia is still reverberating a lot on the internet. All this due to the latest release, the basis of the We Pink brand.
This is because the product was launched in the national market with a value of R $ 200, considered very expensive. In addition, the base promised to be the best in Brazil, delivering more quality than the others available in the market, and supposedly treating the skin, because it is a “dermomake”, a term that is not even recognized by Anvisa.
And the controversy doesn’t stop there. Even with a flood of complaints, both for the price and quality of the base, the influencer continued with the sales and even put the product for half the price on the brand’s website. And he made promotions, placing the base as a toast to those who bought any perfume the site on Women’s Day. Which, of course, did not please customers who bought the base at its launch for the value of 200 reais.
But the main point was the quality of the base. The influencer of make make Karen Bachini did the review of the base on the internet and ended up viralizing by showing that the product is not as water-proof as it promises. In the end, Karen said that in her opinion, the base is not good and much less worth the price that is being charged.
In addition to Karen, Coracy Arantes, a TikTok influencer also tested the controversial basis and opined negatively on the product, stating that it does not work well on the elderly skin. “I thought it marked my lines of expression a lot and it’s still grudentinha. And I feel like he’s ‘looked’ on my eyelashes. So my final opinion is this: it marked my pores a lot, it was ‘farelous’, said to Grandmother TikToker.
Virginia defends itself
Even with all the negative reviews and reviews, the influencer made it clear that she defends her product, and believes so be the best base in the market. In addition, she also complained about all the hate that the basis of WePink has been receiving on the internet.
She reposted a video on her profile of influencer Adam Mitch, who also does cosmetics assessments. The influencer in turn liked the base a lot and showed the day to day using the Virginia base. But he adds that he will receive a lot of criticism simply for liking the product.
“I’m reposting because I’m really scared of people who like the base, afraid of taking hate for simply having liked my base. “Oh, but it’s like that because you’ve said that your base is the best.” About that, I wouldn’t even say anything because for me it’s very obvious that I think my best,” she said.
