Influencer burnout has always existed, but lately creators seem to be burning out even faster. The constant pressure to stay relevant, post wild content, escalate drama, or reinvent themselves every week feels exhausting. Many influencers admit privately that the demand for chaos and constant attention takes a major toll.
My question is: are influencers going “wild” because of burnout, or are they burning out because they’re going wild? It feels like a cycle: shocking content brings engagement, engagement raises expectations, expectations lead to exhaustion, and exhaustion leads to even more extreme behaviour.
On https://www.influencersgonewildco.uk/ there are discussions about how creator culture pushes people past their limits. But what do you think? Have you noticed influencers collapsing under pressure, taking long breaks, or suddenly disappearing after a big viral moment?
Do you think viewers contribute to the problem by demanding constant entertainment and drama? Or is it the platforms themselves pushing creators to extremes with algorithms that reward chaos?
Interested to hear if others feel influencer burnout is getting worse.
