Bad influencer

Bad Influencer will unlock the shocking rise and fall of Belle Gibson, one of Instagram’s first super-influencers. By 23, Australian Wellness guru Belle Gibson had cultivated an adoring global following online with the story that she’d successfully treated her own terminal cancer by eating a plant-based diet and using alternative natural therapies. But there was one problem with Belle’s story: she never had cancer.

Seen through the eyes of those who adored her and those who exposed her, Bad Influencer lifts the lid on one of social media’s great mysteries: who was the real Belle Gibson – an ingenious con artist or damaged young woman trapped in a lie?
