Vanity for show. Is it worth wasting time on Insta-girls

How much time do you spend on social media? According to sociologists, the average Russian spends 2.5 hours a day communicating on various Internet platforms. And this is not surprising - many work issues are resolved online today, virtual business empires are growing by leaps and bounds.

But there is a special category of users who spend almost days on one of the most popular social networks - girls obsessed with Instagram.

We are used to living in a global village. We got used to trolling in social networks, to fervent and fierce discussions, we can easily write our "fairy" to this or that show business star in the blog comments.

Nevertheless, virtual reality is a relatively new phenomenon. And it leads to the emergence of previously unknown phenomena like superbloggers, vloggers, Youtube and Insta stars. And if the situation is more or less clear with bloggers on platforms like LiveJournal and Facebook (interesting notes, reasoning on the topic of the day, the ability to provoke readers into heated discussions), then the popularity of some stars of the Instagram platform suggests thoughts like: "What have you gotten to!" and "God, is this really possible at all!"

Blogging on social media has long been a form of employment. So you can earn quite decent money, while earnings directly depend on popularity and attendance ratings. With media persons, in principle, everything is clear - Ksenia Sobchak, Alena Vodonaeva, Anastasia Volochkova and other star ladies regularly publish advertising posts, but they are hardly worth criticizing.

Another thing is striking: often the stars of Insta are girls (and sometimes guys), whose only merit is a good angle.

“The most important key to success is having good and interesting photos on your profile. Without them, any tricks will not be difficult, and with them all efforts will bring double or even triple results, "- says a special course of the" School of Popularity "Instagram.

It would seem that everything is quite simple. Any girl with a normal camera and good imagination can become the star of the platform. You just have to try hard - the competition for public attention is pretty tough.

And here the most interesting thing begins - the majority of insta-girls have a little imagination, to put it mildly, rather tightly. The most common types of shots: a girl in underwear, a girl in a bikini, in a chic fur coat, on a simulator, an elevator bow. The lips of a duck (there is even a special technique of jaw movement to get a good shot), a languid or inviting look, a smile "Mona Lisa of the 21st century."

From time to time, girls decide to take selfies without makeup, although few allow themselves to give up filters. Some publish video reports about visits to a beautician and contouring specialists.

However, there are exceptions. Russian Instagram star Victoria Odintsova, for example, risked her life posing for a cool shot on a skyscraper in Dubai. But this is clearly too much.

Although I have to give it credit, many Insta-girls have amazing self-control. Blogger FB recently ironically noted that ladies walking in long mink coats in spring can easily become astronauts, as they have adapted to withstand overload and disruption of the ventilation system. Such ladies can easily be released into outer space, provided that "if there is a sable coat flying in front of them and there will be an opportunity to post a photo on Instagram."

But let's try to imagine how long the trend on pretty insta-girls will last? Of course, some are lucky enough to get an offer from a modeling agency one day. Some particularly tenacious and determined people will surely blog for many years, unless some ridiculous accident separates them from their smartphones.

And the rest, whose name is legion? What awaits them, who have spent a lot of time on social networks to the detriment of education and development?

However, on a global scale, things are not so bad. Recently, the group Smart is the new sexy has been gaining popularity on Facebook. And probably girls pouting will have to think about something more serious than lift boots and a selection of filters.
