Let’s set the scene: Christmas lights twinkling, mulled wine flowing, festive cheer filling the air—except for one person. Marina Smith, a 34-year-old influencer and model from São Paulo with nearly a million followers hanging on her every pouty selfie, just got uninvited to her friends’ Christmas dinner. The reason? She’s simply too beautiful.
Yeah, you read that right. The former Miss BumBum winner (yes, that’s a real title, and yes, she’s won it) claims her so-called friends are worried she might tempt their husbands and boyfriends.
“I’ve been banned from Christmas dinner because the women think I’ll steal their men,” Marina told her followers. Let that sink in for a second. The audacity.
The “Threat” of Marina
Marina’s beauty is the kind that makes grown men trip over their own tongues, and apparently, it’s got her friend group spiraling into a pit of insecurity. One friend’s boyfriend even spilled the beans: a secret WhatsApp group was formed, and Marina wasn’t invited. In the chat, the women allegedly plotted to leave her out of their yuletide celebrations, fearing her presence would distract their men from carving the turkey.
Marina’s verdict? “It’s jealousy,” she said. “They think my single status and looks are a danger zone.”
And here’s the kicker—this bombshell is single, but not because she can’t lock down a man. She’s picky, and she’s got standards higher than a Manhattan rooftop bar. Her last boyfriend? He ended things on such a sour note he even charged her for a shared café bill post-breakup. Classy guy, huh?
“He always wanted to split everything,” Marina explained. “It wasn’t the money; it was the exhaustion of it all.”
Eight months was all she could take. Since then, she’s decided she’d rather sip champagne solo than settle for less.
Beauty Isn’t a Crime
Marina insists she’s no homewrecker. “I’ve always respected my friends’ relationships,” she said. “I dress up and wear makeup for me, not for anyone else. The problem isn’t with me—it’s with their men who think I’m too beautiful to be real.”
Ouch. Is she wrong, though?
Her friends’ betrayal has hit her hard. “I used to trust them blindly, but they clearly don’t trust me,” Marina revealed. “It’s a shame because they’re losing the best friend they could’ve had.”
Christmas Alone—But Make It Fabulous
Does Marina seem like the type to mope about not being invited to some passive-aggressive potluck? Absolutely not. “I hope they don’t change their minds and invite me now,” she said. “Because the answer is no. I’d rather spend Christmas alone.”
Instead of competing with insecure energy, Marina plans to focus on herself this holiday season. Maybe that means binge-watching Netflix in silk pajamas or clinking glasses with herself in the mirror. One thing’s for sure—she’s not dimming her shine for anyone.
Marina’s parting words? “Yes, I’m a beautiful woman, but that’s no reason to leave me out.”
And there it is, gents. A lesson in confidence, self-respect, and not letting anyone dim your light—even when you’re the brightest star on the Christmas tree.
Editor’s Note: Let’s be honest here, guys. If Marina’s story ruffled a few feathers, maybe it’s time to check where your own insecurities lie. After all, a confident man isn’t fazed by beauty—he admires it without feeling threatened.
