Who are you?
“Or Miniali, 25 years old, from Tel Aviv. A climbing athlete, a competitor in Israel and around the world and a finalist in ‘Ninja Israel’ – finalist in the first and third seasons. An influencer and content creator on social networks, in a relationship for almost a year. I was twice on the cover of an international fashion magazine who is photographed in Paris”.
When was your big jump on Instagram?
“Definitely thanks to the ninja, in the finale of the first season I gained almost 10,000 followers, which was crazy! Before the program I had around 4,000 followers, and after that more came following the content I upload. In the third season, in the qualifying episode, I invited the viewers to send me a message on Instagram, and I gained 6,000 followers in an hour – they sent over 2,000 messages!’
In the past it was customary to say that models go with footballers. Today is with ninjas?
“I’m not in favor of inclusive statements, and especially not to categorize people because of their profession or way of life, but I’m completely Aryan for ninjas and will say that we are a nation of very good people, with values and a head on their shoulders.”
When you get up in the morning, what do you open first – Instagram, news, WhatsApp or email?
“I’m really addicted to my phone, and automatically, when I get up in the morning, I go straight to Instagram and from there straight to WhatsApp. It’s probably a habit I’ll have to change, because I’m sure you can start the morning in much better and healthier ways.’
Do girls start with you on insta?
“First of all, on Instagram many more boys start with me than girls! I take it as a great compliment, there are times when I respond and say thank you, and of course I appreciate the resourcefulness of sending a stranger a message, but in any case I’m straight, and right now I’m in a relationship and I’m happy.’
Who do you enjoy following?
“First of all, sister bar. And not only because she is my sister, she uploads real content and without masks. The second is Noa Kirel, I love following her because this girl is unstoppable! It is constantly in motion and progress, and it spurs me on to continue on my path. The third is Eden Daniel Gabai That makes me laugh. He is a genuine guy with a huge heart, and personally it’s very fun for me to see him succeed and progress.’
What is the post that got you the most likes?
“A post at the pride parade, with a text in which I identified with the community. The LGBT community is close to my heart, a lot of people from my immediate circle are in it, therefore I feel a responsibility, as a straight person, to release from the stigmas and accept the fact that love is love, no matter who the love is directed towards. A large part of the followers are from the community, it is important that they see my support.’
