Soon after her post, the Brazilian influencer claimed that her personal information was leaked and misused by angry fans. Reports suggest that people used her data to sign her up for things she did not want. This included registering her as a poll worker in elections, applying for membership in a political party she often criticises, and adding her to lists for unwanted messages and services. Some even created fake profiles using her name on different platforms.
Who Is Pietra Bertolazzi?
She is a well-known conservative digital creator and entrepreneur with a huge fan following. She speaks against feminism and opposes women’s suffrage in certain cases, believing women should be submissive to men. These opinions have made her a controversial figure long before this incident.
Following the backlash, she announced she was stepping away from social media. Many locals support the strong reaction from BTS fans, seeing it as a way to call out what they viewed as demeaning and unfair comments.
