“The worst kind of people to be friends with are people that are fame hungry, engagement hungry, money hungry and attention hungry. These people will launder your image without caring.”
Hilda Baci has sparked conversation online after sharing a strong message about the dangers of keeping the wrong company. Known for her record breaking cooking marathon and rising global profile, Hilda’s words struck a nerve, especially in an era where clout, virality and monetization often drive relationships.
In her statement, she warned about individuals who prioritize fame, online engagement, financial gain and public attention above loyalty or integrity. According to her, such people can easily launder someone’s image by using association, screenshots, private conversations or proximity to boost their own visibility, without considering the damage it may cause.
Her remarks have been widely interpreted as advice drawn from experience in the spotlight. Since her historic Guinness World Record attempt, Hilda has experienced intense public attention, brand partnerships and social media scrutiny. With fame often comes opportunists, people who attach themselves to rising stars for relevance.
Fans have reacted strongly to her statement, with many agreeing that in today’s social media culture, some friendships are transactional rather than genuine. The pressure to trend, go viral or monetize every interaction can blur the line between authenticity and self promotion.
Hilda’s message also highlights a broader issue in influencer and celebrity circles, reputation management. In a digital world where screenshots circulate instantly and narratives shift quickly, one wrong association can create long term consequences.
Supporters say her words are not just for celebrities but for anyone navigating ambitious spaces such as business, entertainment or even everyday social life. The takeaway is simple. Protect your name. Protect your peace. Choose your circle wisely.
