On August 29, the international idol survival show created by HYBE and GEFFEN Records, The Debut: Dream Academy (also known as Dream Academy), introduced its 20 global contestants.

One of the participants who caught the attention of netizens worldwide was the 17-year-old Samara from Brazil.

On October 11, fans discovered that Samara’s likes on TikTok were not private and began looking through them. Fans found questionable videos discussing the Israel-Palestine crisis and some that many considered offensive to Indians.

Samara’s likes were hidden after the discovery, but fans have requested her removal from the show.

Now, Samara’s mother has appeared to respond to comments on her daughter’s social media activity.

Samara has a public Instagram account where she follows many family members, including her mother.

On a post on her mother’s account, a fan reportedly left a comment warning her about what was going on with Samara and asking her to do something about the hate.

Please do something about the hate on Samara before it’s gets out of hand. Her mental health might be at stake. Even if the company isn’t doing anything, you are her family. Please do something ma’am. And oh, just because I’m worried about her doesn’t mean I support what she has done.
I am black and I don’t support racism.
Please rewrite your wrongs. Thank you
