‘Fake Famous’
HBO’s Fake Famous wants to shatter the illusion of influencer culture. The new documentary, which comes from Vanity Fair reporter Nick Bilton, sets a challenge: turn three everyday 20-somethings into Instagram icons in a matter of days. It’s a sobering look at today’s social media-fueled culture and the hidden everyday impacts of the apps we’ve grown so accustomed to scrolling through for hours every day.
