Gonna be the first one here to say that I don’t know who Emma Chamberlain is, but it sounds like she’s doing OK for herself if she can charge her fans $10,000 for a personalised DM.

Chamberlain is an influencer who apparently rose to fame in 2018 thanks to her YouTube channel and now she’s looking to monetise that fame even further by opening up a store called ‘Anything Goes’, where she was charging $10,000 for a personalised DM. Don’t worry if you couldn’t pay it all at once though because you can also pay $902.58 a month over a year long period to pay for it. What a bargain.
Anyway, obviously a whole bunch of people were super outraged about the idea of this because let’s face it, it’s quite clearly ridiculous.

Gotta say I agree with all these people to be honest. Sure, I see celebrities charging people for personalised messages on Cameo and that, but they’re usually charging around £40 or £50 and sometimes they even give them to charity AND it’s a personalised video message. This is just a DM. Hope that nobody actually ended up paying that price before she ended up taking the deal down. World’s broke.
