An employee at the Walt Disney World theme park in Florida who played Snow White has reportedly been fired for sharing photos of the princess in costume on social media.
“Something has to happen,” 21-year-old Sofia Dotir posted on Instagram, following a photo of herself as a little girl a month ago, following photos of herself dressed as Snow White and playing the Walt Disney character. The world, “Sud Info” reported on Wednesday.
Following its publication, the young woman was reportedly met by her superiors, who informed her that she was now “under investigation for violating the integrity of an online person,” she said in a video posted on YouTube on April 5. .
“Last week was tough,” she began, recounting her version of the facts. I would have liked [être renvoyée] For being drunk at Epcot, trying to fight Peter Pan or something, but no, I didn't do anything crazy.”
However, according to the company's policies, actors playing in the parks should not reveal who they are playing on social networks, as this would “spoil part of the magic” for children and viewers, French media noted.

Instead, many employees say they are “friends” with some of the characters they play online without destroying Magic, notes Inside the Magic, an American news site devoted to news surrounding the park.
Walt Disney World would not comment on the situation, despite being contacted by multiple media outlets.
