The paper critically interrogates Vega’s “relatable” image. While she frequently decries the pressures of digital fame, her content calendar suggests high professionalization. For instance, her “bad hair day” TikTok coincided with a sponsored dry shampoo launch. Thus, Vega’s authenticity is better understood as a rhetorical device —one that generates trust and, consequently, economic value.
Moreover, Vega’s content raises questions about cultural gatekeeping. By referencing arthouse cinema (e.g., a skit parodying Persona by Bergman) immediately followed by a fast-fashion haul, she flattens traditional cultural hierarchies. Some critics argue this democratizes taste; others claim it trivializes art. agathe vega xxx
