Game or real scream? Vanessa’s controversial signal
“I am suffering psychological violence.” With that phrase, Vanessa Arias left the nominations room frozen in The House of the Famous. But what really set off alarm bells was what came next.
He raised one hand, palm facing out, and withdrew. For those who don’t know, this gesture is not accidental. It is an international distress signal that went viral during the pandemic to discreetly ask for help.
“Because bullying is not a game and especially not between women”
That’s what he said before nominating Caely, Curvy and Celinee. The atmosphere in the house had become heavy after the departure of Sergio Mayer, as they commented.
The networks: between mockery and concern
The internet, as always, split in two. On the one hand, there are those who call the movement “ridiculous” and demand coherence.
“Why don’t you get out? You don’t have to be there”
On the other hand, those who ask not to underestimate a complaint like this, wherever it comes from. Is it just content for the show or a genuine request for help?
From his team they clarified on Instagram that it was not a game. The production is already aware and the actress will have a session with the program’s psychologist today.
“The signal that Vanessa made was conscious and was misinterpreted”
There remains the uncomfortable feeling that this edition of the reality show has crossed lines. Many comment that it is the most intense and violent season so far. And when entertainment is mixed with real distress signals, the issue is no longer so easy to digest with popcorn.
