Israeli singer and songwriter Odia has blocked entertainment journalist Gil Meshali from the Israeli news outlet Mako and Keshet 12 on Instagram. The move came after Meshali reported that Odia did not intend to vote in Israel's crucial elections. The report sparked controversy and apparently led the singer to react negatively to the media coverage. Odia's response was to block Meshali's account. The journalist discovered the "virtual boycott" incidentally when he tried to tag Odia in a new post about her and found her profile was no longer accessible to him.
