As Israel approaches its October 27 election, more public figures are voicing their political opinions. Danit Greenberg, a former contestant on the reality show "Big Brother," has joined this trend, explaining her decision to speak out despite potential professional repercussions. In a personal post on her Instagram account, "Mitachat LaRadar," Greenberg addressed claims that influencers are paid to promote specific political messages. She stated that she does not need such payment and that expressing her political views could harm her career and financial prospects.
Greenberg elaborated that as a content creator, it is risky to share her opinions, potentially jeopardizing collaboration opportunities. She emphasized that remaining silent might have been more financially beneficial. However, she felt compelled to speak due to her connection to Israel and her desire for change, viewing her public stance as part of her responsibility to her followers.
"This country is my home, I have no other place to go," Greenberg wrote, adding that she bought a home in Israel because she does not wish to live anywhere else.

Following their meeting, Tito posted on Instagram, urging for open discussion about voting choices, stating it is the minimum one can do for those who are no longer present, expressing respect.
