“La Nena de Argentina” expressed the anguish caused by the constant negative comments on social media and how this affects her mood. “It’s unbelievable the level of hate I’ve been receiving these past few days,” she wrote.
“They speak and insult me with impunity as if I were not a person. They do a lot of damage,” said the artist. These messages help us to reflect on the use that is given to these platforms and to raise awareness about the consequences that can be caused by what one considers “a simple comment.”
She then went into more detail about the current situation she is going through: “It means waking up every day and reading thousands of offensive things about me, talking about my personal life, my taste in clothing as if I were committing a crime and deserved the worst when it is only my taste in clothing. They mess with my physique on a daily basis, with everything!”
This is why the 24-year-old decided to distance herself from social media: “I am leaving this social network. I’ve struggled a lot with my mental health on this European tour.“This all feels horrible, I experienced everything from crying fits to anxiety and panic attacks,” she wrote.

The singer is currently in one of the most successful stages of her career, as she is in the middle of a tour that began in Argentina, with two multitudinous shows at the Monumental stadium in March, and is scheduled to end in December in Tucumán.
In this context, he says goodbye to the networks for an indefinite period: “I’m going to detox from this social network and from all others. I’m going to leave my Instagram in the hands of my trusted person so they can upload things and that’s it. I’ll pick up my phone again when I feel able to do so. For now it’s only caused me anxiety and panic.”

“I understand that this is part of fame, I understand that many want to help me and advise me and you more than anyone know that I listen to you and I care a lot about what you think. But getting to the point of insulting me like you do is unacceptable to me. I will not continue to tolerate this because it hurts me a lot,” Becerra said, making a clear difference between constructive criticism and “hate.”
This decision sparked support from his fans, friends and colleagues in the music industry. Many other artists and public figures have gone through similar situations and, by reaching a wide audience, they seek to raise awareness about this problem.
