After western pop-singer Rihanna, porn star Mia Khalifa has joined the international influencers who have extended their support to the protesting ‘farmers’ at Delhi’s borders.
Mia Khalifa tweeting a picture of a protesting Sikh ‘farmer’ wrote ““Paid actors,” huh? Quite the casting director, I hope they’re not overlooked during awards season. I stand with the farmers. #FarmersProtest”.

This has now led to a ‘sticky’ situation for the protesting ‘farmers’ and others who have been extending their solidarity as they find themselves not being able to openly recognize and acknowledge Mia Khalifa’s support.
Mia Khalifa is a Lebanese-American porn star and webcam model and holds the distinction of most viewed performer on adult website PornHub. She has also starred in porn films performing sexual acts wearing a hijab.
According to a few experts who monitor internet traffic, Mia Khalifa wants to get maximum hits in the coming days as India and Pakistan have the highest per capita of people watch porn.
Pop star Rihanna on Tuesday tweeted about the farmers protests at Delhi’s borders, earning heavy criticism from Indian netizens on Twitter. Rihanna posted a CNN news report about the temporary internet shutdown around New Delhi and tweeted, “why aren’t we talking about this?! #FarmersProtest”.
Rihanna ―who has earlier faced allegations of cocaine abuse when a video of her snorting a white substance at the Coachella music festival in 2015 had gone viral ― faced a lot of flak from Indians for her tweet. It is pertinent to note that Rihanna follows Khalistani sympathizing Canadian politician Jagmeet Singh on Twitter.
Swedish radical ‘climate activist’ and teenager Greta Thunberg also tweeted in support of the protests on Wednesday, when she shared the same CNN news report that Rihanna had earlier shared and tweeted, “We stand in solidarity with the #FarmersProtest in India”.
