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!

She dumped L off and was at the mall again with M before 10:45am this morning.
She’s still getting filmed at Nana’s but at least (?) she’s not getting camera strapped to her these days. That gadget must have gotten lost in the heaps of crap that had to be moved for the reno.
She really dropped that shtick quickly especially after creating a whole Instagram highlight for it. I like to hope that L got fussy about it.
Such a demanding career, how does she do it!!??
So demanding. She hit up mission thrift on the way home from the mall, I hope this is a knock off she over paid for. I had to do a double take when I saw her. She wouldn’t look up and make eye contact but M did so I couldn’t get a longer look.
I get so grossed out by how often she thrifts when she is so rich. She can afford a vintage YSL from Vestiaire or eBay at a higher price point but instead, she goes to the thrift stores and buys up all the good stuff that are the only affordable options in this economy for many people. She won't use this, it will be thrown on that chair in her room or on the floor never to be used again like everything she buys.
But she was LITERALLY looking for this bag!!!
I agree though especially when she’s at the value village or thrift stores snatching up all the Barbie’s, vintage toys, Disney stuff, clothes for L (especially when she gets so much sent to her). A lot of parents can’t afford to go buy these things at full price like she can yet there she is hoarding it all to never use and bragging about her finds on Instagram.
She doesn’t need to thrift with the amount of shit she’s gifted daily. Dear people of this planet: STOP BUYING SHIT. RIGHT FKN NOW. STOP.
You actually saw her????
Yes!
I’m a little jealous haha. Not surprised you had to do a double take! Sometimes I wonder if I’ve seen her and just don’t realize haha
So...were her proportions the same as online... 🤔😂
