    Wikipedia lists influencer as a synonym for internet celebrity, so I guess just when they become famous.

    Unless you take the title literally, then it’s whenever they become influential over a statistically significant portion of the population.

      This. Its a term from the marketing world.it literally says “able to influence people for marketing purposes” for whatever the threshold of followers is that makes them attractive for marketing purposes.
