Hello new Lemmy friends!

Word on the street tells us our community is regularly making it the all page. While this is very cool news to hear, we can see how the sudden emergence of our posts in your feed might feel jarring and probably raises some questions. And also how, without knowing the backstory, our community might appear less than virtuous, so here’s a very brief introduction which hopefully will clear a few things up.

The woman we’re discussing is a body positive influencer and media personality who has gained fame and wealth by lying, manipulating, exploiting her children for content, plagiarizing BIPOC creators and blaming her BIPOC content editor for it (thereby ruining her career), among other things. Her fraudulent behavior is no different (I’d argue worse) from the likes of Jay Shetty (google him if you don’t know who he is or what he did). She’s the latest in a long line of grifting influencers who are abusing their power, taking advantage of their position and exploiting their followers. The difference is that she’s Canadian. Our laws around social media and advertising aren’t as clear (and where they are she’s disobeyed them), add to that, our mainstream media has protected her from those who’ve tried to expose her grift and silenced/intimidated anyone who’s tried to speak out.

Our Reddit sub was taken down due to reports of copyright infringement, which is unfounded and categorically untrue as no one ever tried to steal her work and pass it off as their own. The mods have made an appeal. While at first glance it may seem like we’re just “shitting on her” the sub has been more devoted to investigation and posting proof of her lies than just bitching for the sake of bitching. The reality is that she’s hurt, manipulated and let down a lot of people. She stole intellectual property and employment, caused mental distress and has repeatedly told lies to boost engagement and profit off her audience, so people are understandably upset that their voices are being silenced.

We’re grateful to have been welcomed so kindly by so many of you, and to those sticking around to watch the drama unfold, we’re glad to have you!

NFL fan friends - is this typical game attire?

[–] Uterusofsteel@lemmy.ca 20 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Hell no lol only the WAGS (wife and girlfriends of sports stars) dress like that and she ain't no WAG. Her man ain't even got a job lol

[–] MoonChild@lemmy.ca 15 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It’s such a weird choice! I would never wear a white pleated skirt to any sporting event! The thing is going to get destroyed!

[–] Uterusofsteel@lemmy.ca 16 points 1 week ago

For sure, if you plan to eat, drink, stand, cheer, jump up and down and generally have a good time. If you just plan to sit there on your phone, I'm sure you can keep it pristine!

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 19 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Maybe if you’re Taylor Swift 😂

I go to sporting events and have never seen ANYONE dressed like this. Most women wear a shirt of the team (or just a regular old shirt from home) or jersey and yoga pants or jeans. I legit never see anyone at a game in skirts or dresses and thigh high boots 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

Also she really has the skinny filter going there

[–] MoonChild@lemmy.ca 16 points 1 week ago (1 children)

That skinny filter is on ALL THE TIME! Her head isn’t that shape!

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 15 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I always wonder what Shane sees when she’s filming them or taking pics. Maybe he just ignores it idk. But it’s sooo obvious.

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 13 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Don’t you remember? She doesn’t film in front of him because she gets embarrassed 😂….but she has no problem using him for her nontent when it’s convenient for her.

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 18 points 1 week ago

Yes….when you’re desperately trying to attract the attention of the men watching the game.

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 16 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (3 children)

I’m shocked he put on new clothes and shoes 👏 It’s a miracle. Are the shoes freebies from Reebok?? Also is this how other men are wearing their jeans nowadays? Too long and excessively rolled up?

[–] Whaaambulence@lemmy.ca 17 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Such try hard, pick me girls. Both of them. How embarrassing

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 14 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Right, when have you ever seen Mr. Punk rock himself ever look like this 🤣🤣🤣 I feel like this is everything he was once against.

[–] outdatedavianfruit@lemmy.ca 14 points 1 week ago

The jeans…. I am literally dying !

[–] MoonChild@lemmy.ca 17 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

Sarah bought all those things and packed them for him. He didn’t even try them on before they left! She didn’t even bother to order the right length - there is no way any of the men in my life would wear their jeans cuffed like that!

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 11 points 1 week ago

That’s what I figured 🤣

[–] outdatedavianfruit@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 week ago

👏👏👏👏

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 14 points 1 week ago (3 children)

He’s dressed for cold and she’s dressed for whatever lol

I love when she kept asking him if he’s excited and he never answered yes. She’s really forcing this on him.

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 13 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

She brought her Sunglass for the nighttime game! Will she take the badly formed hat off so she can wear them of her head after the sun goes down??

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 14 points 1 week ago

Does she have a pack of get quickies in there?

[–] ladybonerforjustice@lemmy.ca 11 points 1 week ago

Emotional support sunglasses

[–] outdatedavianfruit@lemmy.ca 13 points 1 week ago (3 children)

You are spot on ! Is it just me or do they both appear to be a tad nervous, edgy, subdued….. putting on a try hard excited game face for their hosts. She asked, “Are you excited” answer, “I’m ready” A second time she asks if he is excited and he answers with a fake smile like a trained dog performing for his next treat.

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 14 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Yes they are nervous because they know they aren’t authentic fans of the sport. They are praying 🙏 they have studied enough to engage in conversation with real fans.

[–] MoonChild@lemmy.ca 16 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

He strikes me as someone who likes to be the ‘know it all’ so he’s not loving this at all. He’s not a football fan and everyone’s going to know so he’s not really excited at all.

[–] Bitchwhiskers@lemmy.ca 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I was previously married to an IT guy. He was an arrogant prick know it all. He literally told me once that his job was more important than a doctor’s. Very niche sense of humor. Not sporty. Grows his own weed these days. Very trumpy.

Shane reminds me of him. So naturally I hate him.

[–] ladybonerforjustice@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

As someone who unfortunately has to interact with IT guys for work, this tracks. At this point I’m just hoping some of them will retire as they’re utterly insufferable. I’m sure misogyny comes into it too.

Of course others are great!

[–] Uterusofsteel@lemmy.ca 15 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

That's exactly it! People are going to want to make conversation, especially because they are traveling from all over. People are gonna be cheering and understanding the game VERY well. Sports is a community. every time I go, I end up in conversation! People are like damn did you see that play?! Or they miss something and say yo what happened? Fans didn't travel all the way to Brazil cause they are casual watchers. They know they are full of it and are nervous because of it

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I totally agree! Their whole vibe is off. Especially his. I don’t think he knows how to act in this scenario where he has to be part of it because they’re hosting them both.

[–] facialSwelling@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Shame, I_M_fury's mad cause more of his reddit posts and comments are out.

[–] Meepmeep@lemmy.ca 11 points 1 week ago

This coming out is why she’s going so hard on posting her love so much over the last 2 days

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 week ago

This is something else 🥴

[–] Poofluencers@lemmy.ca 11 points 1 week ago

Are they allowed to bring their edibles to Brazil?

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 13 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

64 degrees. I hope she’s cold. By the sounds of the boot choice she’s going to end up with black toes again 😏

Speaking of black toes…..She should be getting those virtual RUN Disney medals 🏅 sent to her that she earned WALKING around on her Disney vacation any day now.

[–] MoonChild@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 week ago

She sure does!

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 16 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Also, all this gifted merch she’s been handed and she’s chooses to wear a shirt she cut up to her first game like??? Make it make sense. She doesn’t deserve anything she gets

[–] MoonChild@lemmy.ca 17 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It was her “I’m wearing black and white because that’s what the team is wearing” that got me laughing. She want to be part of something soooooo badly.

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 15 points 1 week ago

That was so funny 😂 she really thinks she’s one of them lol

[–] Bitchwhiskers@lemmy.ca 16 points 1 week ago

She’s a pathetic phony dufus. She looks like a try hard pick me moron.

[–] Bitchwhiskers@lemmy.ca 15 points 1 week ago (2 children)

This is how normal people dress

[–] Glowpop@lemmy.ca 14 points 1 week ago

I bet by dressing the way she does she thinks she looks VIP/elite/associated with the team or players

[–] MoonChild@lemmy.ca 13 points 1 week ago

That’s how I dress for sports stuff!

[–] Uterusofsteel@lemmy.ca 15 points 1 week ago

She looks like a bobblehead with that size 4 body
