Inventada

A term normally used by Mexican gay men to refer to delusional people who think they are public figures, influencers, fashionistas, or part of the wealthy elite. In most cases, inventadas come from poor, marginalized groups or are part of the gaudy, new middle-class.

These delusional nacos are abundant on social media. Often posing with luxury items, they tend to show off what they once lacked...or still do.

Inventadas also love showing off their many talents; whether it's speaking (badly) in a foreign language, singing, dancing or simply giving inspirational advice in a fake voice to hide their humble, regional accent. At the end of the day, they can't hide their mexa physical features.

However, there is such thing as an "inventada con presupuesto". Meaning, an inventada with a large budget. These inventadas usually come from a middle to upper-class background and are conventionally attractive.

Inventadas sometimes manage to forge a career out of their antics and even form a large following on social media. Their behaviour, though, always exposes how tasteless they truly are regardless of their budgets.

Sofi: "Ew, who are these trashy people and why do they have so many followers even though they look like they belong washing dishes at my father's restaurants?"

Regina: "Gross. Romina Sacre? Jimness? Victoria Volkova? Those are just gatos who simply got lucky with social media and now they think they belong with la gente bien but they're just nacos with new money. Iuuuu! Let's hire them as our maids and remind them where they belong. Inventadas!"
