The face of Rita De Crescenzo , a Neapolitan creator with a large following on Instagram and TikTok, is certainly no stranger to social media users. These days, however, the woman has been at the center of a wave of "hate" and "media violence," so much so that she has declared she is afraid and fears for her safety. She made these words in a statement firmly condemning the growing online backlash against her.

"I'm a colorful, over-the-top character," she explains, "and I know this well. I know I'm controversial and that not everyone likes me. But what's been happening in the last few days is absolutely not right ." "The mayors have every right to not authorize my concert," the TikToker emphasizes, referring to the refusals of some mayors, the latest of which is that of Castel Volturno. "It's legitimate, and I don't dispute that. What I don't accept, however, is for these decisions to be transformed into sensational statements, 'blasted' in the newspapers with harsh words that end up labeling me and turning people against me. Since these statements came out, I've been receiving insults, insults, and even threats."

Rita De Crescenzo, referring to her haters, recalled that "she's a woman, a mother, a person like any other," but she's now fearful due to the climate she's created: "I'm afraid of a society where violence against women is already too widespread, and where even those in institutional positions can contribute to fueling hatred against me. It's one thing to say, 'We don't authorize a show,' but it's another to turn that refusal into a public campaign that pillories me. This isn't just an attack on my character, it's a form of media violence that hurts me as a woman and as a person." The TikToker isn't asking for "approval or applause," but only for "respect" and for an end to "fueling hatred."
