More on Miss Heart Evangelista and her Facebook impostor.

So now we know that the impostor had the real Heart’s friends in ‘her’ Facebook account. Many of which had absolutely no clue that it is not the real person they are interacting with. The blog was on for a long time and frequently updated with posts from the fake ‘Heart’, until finally someone from pep.ph commented about it to the real Heart Evangelista.

She denied that she owned it. And, she gave them her real Facebook profile, which was rife with photos of her high school friends and really normal stuff that celebrities also go through. The fake profile had photos of contract signing moments and totally show business-related stuff that could have been obtained somewhere over the net. However, one could not call the fans or the followers of the fake account gullible because the impostor was very clever.

The blog was the cinching factor. The fake Heart talked (wrote) in such a way that an untrained observer could believe that she is who she claims she is. A blog endears a celebrity to her readers via the sharing of activities and feelings.

A celebrity who is always in the papers can be scrutinized by stalkers or impostors and imitated exactly. The way they speak, the way they dress, even their inflections and imperfections can be copied by someone who really wants to do so. See the parody artists? If those parody personalities can copy a celebrity’s identity, how much more the more malicious people who really want to mislead the celebrity’s followers? Thanks to the expose from pep and Heart’s (the real one) denial of ownership, fans now know better than to trust the fake profile.
