Social media can be very overwhelming for an ordinary person, let alone a celebrity. Dangdut songbird, Baby Shima, real name Nor Ashima Ramli, recently revealed that she once considered deactivating her social media accounts after receiving countless online harassments including receiving lewd images in her inboxes.
The 30-year-old stated that she has always tried to stay positive and remind herself that whatever she posts on her social media is just work-related. “There was time where I wanted to stop posting. But this is my job and I shouldn’t care of whatever hurtful things people have to say about me”, she told mStar. Just recently, Baby Shima exposed a male fan who sent her a photo of his private part.
The “Pura-Pura Bujang” singer however deleted the post on her Instagram a few hours after posting. She explained that the move was to teach a lesson to fans about the consequences of sending her inappropriate photos and videos.
“I posted the photo as a lesson not only for myself but as a reminder for other women out there to always be careful on social media”. Prior to the incident, Baby Shima exposed another perverted male fan who messaged her saying he wanted to have sex with her. She also revealed that she received the message just a day before Muslims celebrated the fasting month.
Baby Shima told mStar that it isn’t fair for netizens to blame her “sexy” photos as the reason for harassments from these horny men. She added that it’s outrageous for anyone to think that her snapshots are an invitation for sex.
