In an interview with Tribute, Jessi had this to say about canadian celebs humblebrags;As reported by Tribute:
First off you can tell us what’s a humblebrag and how do you spot one?
Yes, good question. I personally really feel that the humblebrag is the new selfie. It just was added to the Oxford English Dictionary so if that’s not an indication of its mass popularity I don’t know what else is. I like to define a humblebrag as a social media post that lets everybody know how awesome you are, how gorgeous you look or how amazing your life is. But it’s undercut with a little dose of faux humility.
What are the top things you think Canadians humblebrag about?
Well, Virgin Mobile Canada did a study on humblebragging in Canada to try and figure out the good, the bad and the unfollow-worthy habits of Canadian humblebraggers. They found that 44 per cent of Canadians – so that’s almost half of the population – admit to humblebragging. The study found that almost half of all those humblebrags are about someone’s appearance, followed by materialistic items, like posting pictures of your new shoes or purse, and then finally location, so if you’re on a cruise or you’re court side at a Raptors’ game. That’s sort of the order of what people humblebrag about in Canada.
