Dream Academy Contestant Samara is under fire after netizens discovered some of her liked videos on TikTok.
Samara | WeverseOn August 29, the international idol survival show, The Debut: Dream Academy (also known as Dream Academy), introduced its 20 contestants. A joint venture by HYBE and GEFFEN Records, viewers were thrilled to meet the diverse line-up competing for a chance to debut in an international girl group.
One of the contestants who caught the attention of netizens worldwide was the 17-year-old Samara from Brazil.

Recently, a netizen discovered that Samara’s likes on TikTok were left open and contained some content that many found questionable.
Of the videos, many were about what is happening in Palestine, with one discussing using the Christian Bible to talk about the ongoing crisis that has left many dead.
Why is Samara liking questionable tiktok videos on her tiktok account
“If you take the enemies of Israel today the Muslims and China you get 200 million soldiers”
Why is Hybe not providing Media literacy and training for these girls #DREAMACADEMYHQ #DreamAcademy pic.twitter.com/SoY8mHejnT

Many believe a lack of media training led to these clips about this subject in her likes to be being revealed, leading to criticism. In addition to these about Palestine, viewers also discovered clips many consider anti-Indian.
One such video shows a Brazillian man “visiting” India and being disgusted by the depictions of everyday life there, including videos of random Indians.
There were many anti-Indian videos not just that one https://t.co/Brl7kn8moc pic.twitter.com/PORbitNUZQ

Fans were especially surprised by this, as Dream Academy has two Indian contestants, Indian-Australian Ezrela and Indian-American Lara, whom Samara is close with.
