Following the outbreak of Israel’s assault on the Gaza Strip, several influencers and celebrities worldwide have lost their jobs simply for declaring their solidarity with the victims of the aggression. Palestinian model Bella Hadid stood at the forefront of support for the Palestinian cause, turning her life upside down. Her vocal opposition to the occupation army has earned her death threats, scaring her family, but Hadid refused to remain silent. This would cost her a deal with high fashion house Dior, who would replace her with Israeli model May Tager. Another account said: “Celebrities’ words are influential, and their support for the issue makes a difference, defines it, and communicates the issue to the largest possible number of people.”
