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!

How pathetic, "celebrating" a milestone birthday with a bunch of people who aren't really friends. She has NO long-term friends or "known since school/childhood" people around her. Not one, and this is a woman who has basically lived in the same place her entire fucking life. They've all washed their hands of her. It's wild.
Does Guelph dislike her? You’re right, she only seems to have her group of fake grifting Instagram bitches rather than core friends who she’s known since school. She must have lost everyone once she became the entitled bitch that she is…
It’s interesting how many of the photos are Ariana/Renee or Ashley/Alicia hamming it up together - I know a group of 14 would be hard to keep together but I bet it annoys Sarah that they aren’t following her around like a puppy. Also - did they have dinner last night or are they just eating park food on the go? Girl dinner might be fun on day 1 but what kind of a weirdo thinks a group of grown woman need to go on rides all day with out taking a nice break and getting changed for dinner? It’s all so weird.
Also interesting that a lot of the trip involves drinking and bars, for somebody who “doesn’t drink”
She’s got her $10 bottle of Diet Coke keeping her satisfied.
I figured they might do an epic last night performative dinner. TBH I think it would be difficult to get a table for 14 at Disney. Table service is expensive and a waste of time imo.
It says a lot about her. Her buddy from Tampa couldn’t even make the 2 hr drive to Orlando? What happened to her American bestie that was at her wedding?
And the gal with the other ship tatoo?
The most random one is Elena Davies. I feel she’s prob never talked to her since lol
Oh ya how many of them got that tatt? 3 or 4? I only see her still talking with Bailey, who she is planning Disneyland with because she lives in LA
I can’t. At this point I wonder if she is related to the Disney family lol
