Social networks have never been an easy place to live and 'coexist'. Having visibility, making platforms an integral part of one's work, often leads to exposing oneself in such a way as to become more vulnerable to criticism and distasteful comments. Over the years, dozens of celebrities have been victims of body shaming or insults that go beyond socially accepted limits. This time, at the center of the controversy is Monica Lima, a comedian and member of the duo Arteteca, who became famous for her participation in Made in Sud alongside her husband and stage partner.
The Insult on TikTok and the Controversy
Commenting on a video uploaded by the comedian on TikTok, a user wrote 'Without makeup you look more like a man than Enzo does'. The reflection, in poor taste, did not go unnoticed, sparking controversy and comments. In recent months, Monica Lima has been the protagonist of several comedic sketches alongside her husband and daughter, greatly increasing their presence on the platforms and, therefore, exposing her more to the media jungle of social networks.

Monica Lima's Response
The comedian responded to the comment on her own TikTok profile in a video in which she appears alone. 'Thank you, really thank you. Thanks for the compliment, thanks for the tact, for the kindness you had. You are a gentleman. I have received many comments in my life, but never so nice. However, I must disappoint you because I believe I will continue to make videos without makeup. Because if someone, like you, without makeup takes me for a man... I really don't care. See you at the next comment. Ah, and if you don't like me without makeup, don't follow me. It's okay,' she concluded.
