Brilio.net - Kemal Palevi's tweet on his personal X account about Ria Ricis was widely criticized by netizens. Many regretted Kemal's attitude because they felt he did not sympathize with Ria Ricis' divorce. This issue has also been widely discussed, not only on X but also on TikTok.
Today, Friday (2/2), the Indonesian comic finally spoke to clarify the meaning of his tweet a few days ago. Through a video post, Kemal conveyed the meaning of his tweet which was considered to be satirizing Ria Ricis.

Kemal Palevi admitted that the tweet he uploaded on Wednesday (31/1), asking whether the content of Ria Ricis' divorce had been broadcast or not, was just a question, not a joke. This clarification was also made to respond to the content of a TikToker who regretted Kemal's attitude.
"Here, I'll emphasize this, for Ms. and netizens, especially Ria Ricis fans who have been attacking me since yesterday. That's not a joke, that's not a joke. That's a question." Kemal said.
In Kemal's understanding, Ria Ricis is a content creator who turns her personal life into video content to earn Adsense or Rupiah coffers. In fact, what according to him doesn't have to be made into content, Ria Ricis can package it into one show.

"We both know, and this is a fact, Ria Ricis's behavior is uploading all of her personal life to YouTube on Social Media." said Kemal.
He also mentioned some of Ria Ricis' content, such as when she was dating Teuku Ryan, getting married, when her husband was in the ER, when her father died, and visiting her father's grave.
"He even uploaded the grave pilgrimage in parts. I ask, which of you, the grave pilgrimage, is thinking about creating content? We are the grave pilgrimage just remembering death," he explained.

Based on his observations, Kemal dared to ask Ria Ricis a question, who has a habit of making her personal life into video content.
"So my benchmark is, 'oh Ricis, the content limit is already that much, you know', that's why I dare to ask that," he explained.
Kemal assumes, who knows, if Ria Ricis uploads content about her divorce from her husband, it could be educational for her and the audience.
"If there are (divorce content videos), then that will be my learning so that it doesn't happen in my household. So that's educational," he continued.

Kemal also criticized Ricis fans who considered making personal life vlogs just a collection of memories.
"It's true, immortalize the moment and it doesn't mean anything, but when Adsense doesn't turn on. If Adsense turns on, there's nothing wrong with it, sis. The downfall is that it's business," said Kemal Palevi.
Kemal called Ria Ricis a genius businesswoman. Teuku Ryan's wife knows which content people like, so she can take advantage of it thanks to the active AdSense.
"This is Ria Ricis, a genius. She is a businesswoman. This is business under the guise of personal life," he added.

Finally, Kemal apologized and surrendered to Ria Ricis and everyone if his words might offend many parties.
"For Ricis too, feel free to write whatever content you want. That's your right. It's my fault," he concluded.
The video, which has been broadcast 728 thousand times, has received 1000 responses from netizens. Again, there are pros and cons regarding Kemal Palevi's response.
"I really agree with your statement, bro. Ria Ricis is a true businesswoman. Just look at how many branches she has. Not to mention that she sells a lot of snacks at Alfamart and Madura stalls." said @BanyuSadewa.
"The person who hates Ricis probably hasn't met him in person. He's as nice and humble as he is with new people, one of whom is me. I didn't know him at first, but now I'm a friend. Everyone who has met him definitely agrees with my opinion." said @reyhansagevti_.
"Even though I originally wanted to make a vlog, I guess, I was too proud, I didn't make it. Just hang on." said @da_n_dy.
"That's a mean comment, are you thinking about his feelings? Are you thinking about the feelings of his family and children with this trash tweet of yours?" said @GelapMataaaaa.
