Ever feel like you're being judged by how many Twitter followers you have, Facebook friends you can collect, or Pinterest pinners you can attract?  Today, we think our lives are so important that the world is interested in everything we do.  Well, it turns out all of that Valentino Garavani and Giancarlo Giammetti are kind of over the social media craze.  In WWD they said, "Sometimes I see my friends do [tweet].  They tweet but it is so shameful."  They go on to say, "I mean, who cares?  Followers don't mean you are special, because Hitler had millions of followers and Jesus had just 12."  From the 2 geniuses behind the Valentino empire, I think these points are valid.  Always remember that social media doesn't define whether you are a quality source of influence or not.  

I just had to put that out there.  These quotes made me laugh.  Go Valentino!
