Moment ‘shameless’ influencer poses for PHOTOSHOOT in front of homeless man with ‘hungry’ sign outside his tent
This is the moment a woman branded 'shameless' organized a photo shoot for a homeless man sleeping in a tent.
The woman – who a passerby called an “influencer” – posed for the camera against a wall, right next to a man sleeping on the street.
He was wrapped in a woolen hat against the freezing temperatures and tried to get some rest in a duvet.
To make matters worse, there was a sign outside his tent that said “hungry.”
The photoshoot took place outside 'The Geological Society' in Piccadilly, central London, opposite Fortnum and Mason.

The 'influencer' was filmed dressed in a white coat and scarf, doing various poses against the wall of the building, just a few meters away from the green tent.
Jack Mason watched and was shocked by what he saw.
He said: 'Shameless influencers in London.
'The street has many beautiful buildings and tourist attractions.
“The Geological Society wasn't one of them, so they definitely chose that spot to take pictures because of the tent.”

Another person said: 'That's so disgusting. Nowadays people will do anything for attention.'
A local called Beth said: 'My jaw dropped, this must be a joke. Poor man.'
Another, called Emily, said: 'It's worrying that some people in our society think this is OK.'
