Dilemma: The dilemma focuses on the strategies adopted to manage the crisis of a digital influencer participating in a reality show.

Main topic: Crisis management in social media.

Originality/value: At the end of the discussion, the following learning objectives are expected to be achieved: (1) the relevance of using social networks to create reactive narratives in case of crises; (2) how quick reaction during the crisis impacted engagement; (3) how the actions taken during the program impacted the billing after the reality.
