This study will look at how micro-celebrities are connected to the neoliberal environment that currently exists in the digital realm. This study also takes a media studies approach to examine how micro-celebrities in social media sites like YouTube and Instagram promote the myth of digital meritocracy. To further understand how two young women utilize their social media accounts to lead and attract attention, engagement, and apply industrialized celebrity manufacture, this research will compare two beauty influencers, @tasyafarsya (5.8 million Instagram followers, 4.2 million YouTube subscribers), and @inivindy (587 thousand Instagram followers, 1.96 million YouTube subscribers). This research using the multimodal discourse analysis method, and included semiotic visual investigation, in order to comprehend how texts and knowledge are arranged and formed by Beauty influencer through performativity and performance. The information for this study came from archival research that taken in period of January-May 2022 from Beauty influencer social media both in their Instagram and YouTube accounts. Thematic analysis and visual analysis were merged in order to examine how text and images depict discursive activities. The profound and significant findings of this study shatter the myth that individuals in positions of influence who reached the top came to believe that their achievement was completely their own doing. This study aims to investigate the cultural background of Indonesian digital influencers creates myth of digital meritocracy through their everyday posts. However, in reality, the emerging industrial culture on social media is also influenced by cultural logic related to people's financial statuses, family backgrounds, geographic places, and occupational history.
