It was promoted as a luxury music festival where ticket holders would rub shoulders with celebrities. However, Fyre Festival was cancelled at the last minute, leaving hundreds of people both stranded in the Bahamas and thousands of dollars out of pocket.
Those who were involved in organising and promoting the event have began issuing public ‘apologies’ that are less than impressive.
Earlier today model Bella Hadid – who promoted the event on social media alongside Kendall Jenner and Emily Ratajkowski – posted an apology on Twitter. And it was uninspired at best.

I'm not really sure what you expected her to do... repay her followers?
I think when people see celebrities endorsing something, they know that they are doing so because they're being paid, not because of some deep belief in what they are promoting. (And if they don't, they should.)
