Influencer Talks About How Her Beauty Caused Holiday Drama: 'I Was Banned From Christmas Dinner'

Marina Smith is a social media star and model from Brazil. She recently shared a surprising reason why she won't be spending Christmas with her friends this year. According to Marina, her friends have opted not to invite her to their holiday gatherings because they feel that she is "too attractive."

Friends Fear She Might Steal Their Men

Marina, who has over 923,000 followers on Instagram, believes that her beauty is the main reason for her exclusion. The former Miss Bumbum winner from São Paulo says her friends are worried that she might steal their husbands or boyfriends. “I have been banned from Christmas dinner because the women think I'll steal their men,” Marina told NeedToKnow. She explained that they are jealous and insecure about her appearance.

Marina Denies Making Advances Towards Anyone's Partner

Despite her friends' concerns, Marina insists that she hasn't done anything to cause problems. She clarified that she has never made any moves on her friends' partners. “I dress to feel good. The problem isn't with me. It is the insecurities of my friends,” she added. Marina seems to think it's not her fault, and she believes her friends are missing out on having her as a good friend because of their own jealousy.

A History of Beauty Causing Social Problems

This isn't the first time a social media influencer has felt excluded because of their looks. Sabrina Low, a 23-year-old influencer, had a similar experience when she was removed from a friend's bridal party because the other women felt threatened by her beauty.
