The role of public figures in society and their influence on the formation of public opinion was discussed on the show "Mirembrëma Yje" with Arbana Osmani, where guests were Sarah Berisha, Jori Dielli, Beniada Nishani Deamishel Hoxha. The discussion was related to whether influencers should react to social events or have the right to set limits on what they choose to comment on publicly.
In this context, Sarah Berisha said:
"I find it excessive when many people give opinions on things that don't concern them. I can't come out and give advice to others," she said.
Further, Sarah added:
"I, honestly, a few days ago Durrës was flooded, I would have liked to come out and speak, but I left it at that because in the end what I need is for the people to make their own choices. I express this issue more privately. I can't come out and remind others."
Following the comments and criticism that followed the interview, Sarah reacted on social media, clarifying that her statement referred to the flooding of the famous Veliera in September 2025 and not the recent situation. She also emphasized that this was a clarification for all those who, according to her, had "crucified" her for a lack of sensitivity towards the city of Durrës.
"To start with, the show was filmed on September 18, 2025 and was broadcast on YouTube on January 15, 2026," she clarifies, explaining that the statement is not related to the recent floods .
In the end, she added ironically that someone had to become a "victim of clicks," and this time it had been her.
