Neymar Jr., the renowned Brazilian soccer star, stands as an influential figure both on and off the field. With numerous headlines revolving around him since his $418 million signing with Al Hilal, his social media presence has only grown stronger. However, recent events have left one prominent model fuming at Mark Zuckerberg‘s Meta with the use of Neymar’s example.

One of the most prominent platforms within the Meta is undoubtedly Instagram. The Brazilian soccer star is also an active user on the platform and boasts a staggering 214 million followers. Neymar frequently shares his life, interests, and partnerships on the platform for the fans. However, recently, fingers have been pointed at this platform by Juju Ferrari, for what she perceived as unfair treatment.

However, her world took a sudden turn when her profile was taken down. This course of action was allegedly a result of Ferrari’s promotion of a gaming site called ‘Blaze’. Instagram justified its decision by citing a violation of community guidelines, particularly the restrictions on the promotion of gambling and betting. Outraged by the situation, Ferrari shared her frustrations.

“I was shocked when my profile was taken down because of this advertisement,” Ferrari expressed. “Of course, I was promoting a gambling site, but many other influencers do the same thing and still have their accounts active”. To support her argument, Ferrari pointed to the case of Neymar. Just a few days prior, the forward had also taken to his Instagram account to promote ‘Blaze’.

The influencer proclaimed, “That’s not fair! If the rules are for everyone, then why haven’t I seen Neymar’s profile banned? He’s also advertised on gaming sites”. Ferrari’s frustration stems from the apparent double standards employed by Instagram. It is worth mentioning that as of this moment, Juju Ferrari’s Instagram account has been reinstated and is no longer suspended. Interestingly, Instagram is not the only place Neymar has been excused from infringing rules or guidelines.

Following the announcement of the Al Hilal move, Neymar and his girlfriend Bruna Biancardi moved in last month to Saudi Arabia. However, it is important to note that Saudi Arabian regulations prohibit unmarried couples from cohabiting. Despite this, exceptions have been made for Neymar and Bruna Biancardi.

Despite not being married, they have obtained permission from authorities in the Middle East to reside together. Additionally, Cristiano Ronaldo and his partner Georgina Rodriguez have also received similar exclusions. One can speculate that Neymar’s celebrity status and influence significantly contributed to these exceptional circumstances.
