This study uses the Source Credibility Model framework to explore how the food vlogger review influences the viewers' purchase intention. The data was collected through an online questionnaire with 276 respondents, using the quantitative method and judgmental sampling techniques. The data was analysed using the PLS-SEM statistical method. The result shows that attractiveness, trustworthiness, and expertise as independent variables are significantly correlated to consumer attitude as a mediating variable. Nevertheless, the other latent variable, which is the significant correlation between brand-influencer personality congruence and consumer attitude, is rejected.
