The Truth About Influencers and Coachella Attendance

Influencer Loren Gray has called out many influencers for faking their attendance at Coachella by posting photos and videos without actually having a wristband. Gray explained that many influencers go to the desert, get an Airbnb, and get their outfits, hair, and makeup done to create the illusion of attending the festival. This is not a new phenomenon, as a 2021 HBO documentary called Fake Famous exposed how wannabe influencers can use simple tricks to manufacture their fame, like buying followers and fabricating a luxurious lifestyle.
