The life of a celebrity is never easy. We see from time to time how both local and international celebs would take breaks from social media to focus on their mental health. Some have even deactivated their social medias due to online harassments.
Social media can be very overwhelming for an ordinary person, let alone a celebrity. Malaysian singer Baby Shima was actually very close to shutting down her social media accounts. Here’s what happened:
Nor Ashima Ramli, better known as her stage name Baby Shima, recently revealed that she once considered deactivating her social media accounts after receiving countless online harassments including receiving lewd images in her DMs.
The 30-year-old stated that she has always tried to stay positive and remind herself that whatever she posts on her social media is just work-related. “There was time where I wanted to stop posting. But this is my job and I shouldn’t care of whatever hurtful things people have to say about me”, she told mStar. Just recently, Baby Shima exposed a male fan who DMed her his dick pic.
The “Pura-Pura Bujang” singer deleted the post on her Instagram a few hours after posting. She explained that it’s to teach a lesson to fans about the consequences of sending her inappropriate photos and videos.
“I posted the photo as a lesson not only for myself but as a reminder for other women out there to always be careful on social media”. Prior to the recent incident, Baby Shima exposed another perverted male fan who DMed her saying he wanted to have sex with her.
Baby Shima told mStar that it isn’t fair for netizens to blame her “sexy” photos as the reason for harassments from these horny men. She added that it’s outrageous for anyone to think that her snapshots are an invitation for sex.
