The content creator Flor de Cuba has once again won over social media with a humorous and critical video, where she parodies the routines and lifestyles of Cuban influencers residing in Miami. The video features Flor performing a hilarious exaggerated version of an influencer and her supposed daily "problems."
With the opening phrase "Join me for a day as a Cuban influencer living in Miami," Flor de Cuba begins her ironic narration:
"It's very exhausting and traumatizing to receive so many free smile designs. Seriously, they don't understand the stress of being an influencer." From that moment on, the satirical tone of the video highlights a critique of materialistic standards and the pursuit of recognition on social media.
In the parody, Flor narrates how she will rent a yacht to "hang out" with her friends, despite not having a house or a car, because she considers this expense "very important." Additionally, she confesses to having spent months saving up to buy a Hermès bag, just so it can appear in the background of her videos and give off an impression of a higher status.
Another key point in the video is the mention of an influencer's ideal partner: "The hardest thing in an influencer's life is finding a boyfriend who is a repairman and sings reggaeton. You know you're a top influencer when your husband is a repairman or a reggaeton artist." Flor humorously adds that if one can't find such a boyfriend in Miami, the solution is to travel to Cuba and keep him with gifts like cars and other luxuries.
Flor does not hesitate to ridicule the contradictions of some influencers regarding their families and public image: "Here I am passing some $5,000 sneakers and Shein clothes to my family, while I buy cheap things for my son that I left back there. But the chains on my trip to Cuba are a must. You know those people don’t know much; you go with chains and they think you’re rich.
Finally, Flor ends the video with sarcasm, mentioning that she is about to undergo her "fifteenth cosmetic surgery," justifying it by saying that her body is her temple, while also reminding her followers about the importance of self-esteem.
