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!

It’s no surprise her daughter’s milestone birthday is all about Birdie. It’s about Birdie reminding us how young she was when she was born, it’s about Birdie being the parent to a legal adult, it’s all about Birdie all of the time. I’m surprised she hasn’t reminded us that two years ago she had to go to hospital due to migraine pain and almost missed her 16th birthday and that was the catalyst to swear off alcohol and be sober Barbie.

All of these posts for the same kid who does not want to be on her social media? Make it make sense? All the toilet poetry in the world can’t hide the fact that what she is doing here is wrong and kept private.

[–] Bitchwhiskers@lemmy.ca 19 points 3 months ago (1 children)
[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 10 points 3 months ago

Kind of funny for a sponge who takes on multiple personalities.

[–] bunniculamonroe@lemmy.ca 19 points 3 months ago (1 children)

And holy shit this doesn’t even look like her at all. I know she’s young here but I’m in my 40s and my face still looks like my 20 year old face just with some ageing. Someone who hasn’t seen me for 20+ years would still recognize me. She looks like a completely different person, and the worst part is she looks so much like her kids here and she’s purposefully erased that. It’s sad.

[–] MoonChild@lemmy.ca 14 points 3 months ago

I thought the same thing and she doesn’t look embarrassed or like she isn’t proud of her body. She looks coy and flirty - that hasn’t changed

[–] Rarepotato@lemmy.ca 19 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Her whole “I made a time lapse reel with ______ now that she’s 18 but I don’t want to post it bc it’s not good.” What she meant to say was that ______ hates having her pic posted so she talked her into making a reel and then letting her post it to stories. She even shared a pic of her this weekend where she has her hand covering her face and was clearly uncomfortable and she posted it anyway! So fucked up!

[–] MoonChild@lemmy.ca 13 points 3 months ago (1 children)

It’s wrong and it’s manipulative. If she’s not posting it then don’t say anything. She’s talking about it to make her daughter feel badly.

[–] Rarepotato@lemmy.ca 12 points 3 months ago (2 children)

But she did post it to her stories under the guise that it wasn’t very well made so didn’t get a spot on the grid. She’s an asshole. She then posted her in a story where they’re thrifting where she didn’t know her pic was taken. She was in the background. A body shot. It was weird and so lacking respect for boundaries. Makes me so angry for her bc she’s so manipulative and weaponizes her mental health to get her way.

[–] MoonChild@lemmy.ca 7 points 3 months ago

That’s horrible!

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 4 points 3 months ago

That picture made me sooooo mad! Taking sneaky shots of your daughter who doesn’t want to be posted online is gross behaviour.

[–] Amb2023@lemmy.ca 11 points 3 months ago

It really is. Hanging behind and secretly taking a pic and sharing in onto her stories. Like. Why. You know she doesn’t want to be your content. Why are you continuing to do so. Zero respect. It’s actually disgusting

[–] Bonjourmadame@lemmy.ca 17 points 3 months ago (1 children)

So many non medical procedures have been done, clearly. She doesn't even look the same anymore. I'm sorry but nobody's looks change that drastically.

[–] MoonChild@lemmy.ca 16 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I agree and also agree with the comment you can take a picture of me from any past time in my life and look at me now and know it’s me. This person doesn’t even look like it could be related to the image Sarah presents today. We do know, though, that isn’t really her because when she’s photographed with her mother the resemblance is uncanny

[–] Bonjourmadame@lemmy.ca 12 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Her middle daughter is also the spitting image of her younger self.

[–] MoonChild@lemmy.ca 11 points 3 months ago

She does look just like her mother used to look and how sad it that? How do you explain that you don’t like how you look to a girl who looks just like you? She pretends she’s about empowering women while diminishing the self-confidence of her own daughters

[–] DoomPile@lemmy.ca 16 points 3 months ago

Yeah, this isn’t even the same person. NO ONE would see this pic for the first time, without any context and think, hey isn’t that TBP?

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 15 points 3 months ago (1 children)

What are we on now Day 4 of making this 18th Bday all about her? A lead up to her newest toilet poetry.

[–] DoomPile@lemmy.ca 11 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Be yourself…lol. She may be teaching you, Sarah, but the lesson clearly isn’t sinking in. I suppose it’s hard to be yourself when you can’t settle on a personality.

[–] MoonChild@lemmy.ca 11 points 3 months ago

That whole thing really feels like she’s tried, over the years, to steer her into the mainstream but she isn’t having it. I often wonder how much coercion goes into ever post she allows her mother to make? She never looks comfortable and covers her face. Why can’t Sarah just respect her right to privacy and stop putting her on her page?

[–] Blueeyes84@lemmy.ca 15 points 3 months ago

You're wording it wrong - she wasn't born, Sarah birthed her! 🙄

[–] Thefrogsbanana@lemmy.ca 14 points 3 months ago (2 children)

When I see old photos of her natural, unedited face, I have such a hard time matching it with what she currently looks like. It honestly makes my brain hurt.

[–] MoonChild@lemmy.ca 15 points 3 months ago

It doesn’t look like her lips were swollen during the first pregnancy. She did say her lips swell when she’s pregnant and that’s why they look the way they do today, didn’t she?

[–] Quietnomore@lemmy.ca 12 points 3 months ago

That’s one of the things that started me down this rabbit hole…I could not reconcile the younger pictures of her with her current look, even with the significant weight loss, there had to be something else, fillers, filters, something. You nailed it…it made my brain hurt!

[–] ladybonerforjustice@lemmy.ca 14 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Does she not realize that some men on the internet count down to girls’ 18th birthdays? She features her children so much on her SM, including the one who doesn’t want to be, next to photos of herself half naked. It’s almost certain there’s at least one pervert watching this. Some things should be kept private especially when you’re a public figure.

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 13 points 3 months ago (6 children)

Going to relish this for a minute, or a week or 2 perhaps the rest of the year.

[–] MoonChild@lemmy.ca 13 points 3 months ago (1 children)

She’s going to relish in it? I can really see why she self-identifies as a writer. Why is every, single thing such a big deal? Her daughter is a day older than she was yesterday; that’s it. Get over yourself!

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 12 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Yes, she’s the bestest writer. We must never forget that!

[–] MoonChild@lemmy.ca 10 points 3 months ago

That’s one of her famous hotel video shoots! She loves those and they’re always so cringey!

[–] QueenofTudor@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Eeek this is not the SI “model” body we saw. When is this from?

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 months ago

Definitely from over a year ago.

[–] Thefrogsbanana@lemmy.ca 12 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Her earrings are pulling in toward her face. It’s even more obvious in the video.

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 9 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

Her earrings seem to bend in mysterious ways, I can’t imagine why 🤔

[–] Thefrogsbanana@lemmy.ca 7 points 3 months ago

You should probably get your phone checked.

[–] DoomPile@lemmy.ca 11 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Who TF is THIS? I thought it was Christine from Sister Wives for a hot second lol.

[–] Spicykitty@lemmy.ca 4 points 3 months ago
[–] Spicykitty@lemmy.ca 8 points 3 months ago

Where's her alien head and delicate tiny chin from yesterday? Shape shifter lol

[–] Amb2023@lemmy.ca 7 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Her facial expressions and talk is so freaking cringe.

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 4 points 3 months ago (2 children)
[–] Amb2023@lemmy.ca 4 points 3 months ago

Such a smug dick.

[–] ladybonerforjustice@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

That’s a Botox forehead right there (it’s worn off slightly so it wrinkles a tiny bit). She’s so annoying for lying about obvious cosmetic procedures. She really does just want others to think she’s better than them because she apparently doesn’t age lol.

Typing this as I book my best Botox appointment. I don’t care what people do with their bodies, just don’t lie about it when you’re a so called “body positive” influencer. 🙄

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

I get it’s a moment to see your kids get older and hit a milestone birthday but like I don’t get the dramatics here? Everything is the biggest deal and she’s acting like it’s some miracle she made it to this birthday

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 4 points 3 months ago

The dramatics are irritating AF, like when 5cm of snow is a frightening storm coming 😱

[–] Amb2023@lemmy.ca 9 points 3 months ago

The day is still young…. I would not be surprised if she brings up the non drinking. Also not shocked … she makes everything about her

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 6 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

God she is SOOOOOO dramatic!!! Everything is the biggest deal on earth and she will use any excuse to write some dumb toilet poetry.

And making M do that reel and using poor L to basically be a child actor for the age transition video it was all so weird. I bet M really didn’t want to do it but Sarah guilted her into it. Then she goes on about how cringe it was, well yea because it was STAGED! Maybe if anything in her life was authentic it wouldn’t come off so cringe.

[–] MoonChild@lemmy.ca 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)
[–] bunniculamonroe@lemmy.ca 7 points 3 months ago

Yes, this one was nice. It's all about M as it should be. Sarah is probably mad that she didn't get mentioned.
