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!

**all posts are alleged.

Lmao OF COURSE she makes up a story about kids thinking she was a movie star and they were asking her for pictures. I can’t with her 😂 if it was true, I hope they mistaked her for something terrible lol

[–] after_act@lemmy.ca 10 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Can they just stop inviting her to these movie premieres. It's so annoying

[–] lightweight@lemmy.ca 8 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

But she’s a professional movie reviewer now and she couldn’t have done it without US! Like seriously, I doubt this has anything to do with your lame reviews lol

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 8 points 19 hours ago* (last edited 19 hours ago)

I can’t believe she thinks she’s a professional movie reviewer now 😂 she legit writes a sentence about a movie and adds a emoji rating, wow great stuff!! I’d take her more seriously if she started a vlog/blog and actually wrote more thoughts then “this was very good, I liked the actors. Very funny, very cute 🔔🔔🔔🔔”

[–] Whaaambulence@lemmy.ca 9 points 21 hours ago (2 children)

So if it's the movie premiere that I am seeing, she's a piece of crap for not brining L because many other people brought their children that are her age to it and it seemed like a very family friendly event.

[–] bellaportuguesexo@lemmy.ca 8 points 17 hours ago

Let’s be real she didn’t want to take care of her child for once. Nana k wasn’t there

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 10 points 19 hours ago

The too young excuse seemed very weird. She just didn’t wanna have to deal with her, let’s be real.

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

It bothers me so much how she seems to feel no sadness for leaving L behind for all these “important” events she has. Like tonight she has all the family but L is “too young” and had to be left behind with NK as usual. And she still has more things coming up that I’m sure L is forgotten about during. How is she okay with being so absent to her little girl?? I’m glad she at least has her Nana because she sure doesn’t have a mom.

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 day ago

Too busy trying to perfect her Kardashian voice and R pronunciation at Rockefeller Center

[–] Poofluencers@lemmy.ca 14 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Influencers are all about driving consumerism (thank you for making it so hard for some people to live) and unrealistic standards for woman around hair and face. Sarah’s travel bag here was either gifted or a splurge after she shilled her own design to her followers - just to make money. I know it was a couple of years ago that she did the bag with Poppies and Peonies but she never used the bag herself. Idiot. She banks on woman spending their last 100$ on things she designs or recommends with out a care for their well being. She’s a snake.

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 11 points 2 days ago

I wonder why she’s not using Alicia’s bag she was just sent?? This one here looks like a Vera Bradley!? I can’t recall seeing it before.

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

Someone’s up working on a Sunday morning.

[–] Poofluencers@lemmy.ca 13 points 2 days ago

Yeah, when you create an account just to comment on Janette - not suspicious at all! I can’t comment on how Janette was going about her efforts to draw attention to the grossness that is influencer culture because I’m too afraid to even like her page. Most of us don’t want Sarah, or our many friends who follow her, to know who we are. She had the guts to say something and that’s big.

[–] Poofluencers@lemmy.ca 12 points 3 days ago (4 children)

Never the same way twice. Sarah’s insta looking like she always does, smooth skin, perfect, skinny neck.

On the make up artists site. Looking like she is wearing stage make up. Think and dry to protect the illusion she’s created.

[–] bellaportuguesexo@lemmy.ca 10 points 2 days ago (1 children)

That chin does not look good she looks like those scary wooden puppets

I was trying to put my finger on what this picture of her reminded me of and... It's this. Horrifying. Nightmare inducing.

[–] facialSwelling@lemmy.ca 11 points 3 days ago

The makeup artist must have been trying to make Sarah's eyes look like filtered eyes.

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 8 points 3 days ago

The makeup artists photo is horrifying. She looks HORRIBLE!!!!

[–] Whaaambulence@lemmy.ca 13 points 3 days ago (2 children)

same make up artist, almost a year ago to the exact date. Man. Time and filler are not helping her age well at all. Looks like she’s aged 5 years in one.

[–] BirdsaLiar@lemmy.ca 14 points 3 days ago

She needs to back off on the filler. Jesus.

[–] facialSwelling@lemmy.ca 6 points 3 days ago

It's shocking how fast her face is aging.

[–] outdatedavianfruit@lemmy.ca 9 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (1 children)

Sippy cup sales must STILL be stagnant. She’s now desperately buying her own merch ETA there have been Zero, Nada cups sold at my local store in the past 16 days. Still full price might I add. Oops another edit. I guess it was a fan that bought the cup… however she is still flogging a dead horse with her repeated posts about these dead end cups.

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 9 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Nanakimi was out at Homesense today. I will never understand why they need so much shit.

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 11 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Sarah was posting from winners this morning, they never stop. I legit didn’t go to a store all week until today yet she’s out shopping every single day, it’s ridiculous!

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 10 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Lmao…the moron picks up a French coffee press as if she would ever take the time to use one, she can’t even press a button on the nespresso ffs. She literally saw Paris and Pink Bows and had to take a picture. I wonder if she actually bought it 🤣

[–] outdatedavianfruit@lemmy.ca 7 points 4 days ago (1 children)

OMG. people that are actually serious about coffee and using a press would never buy this pink piece of fluff. It even looks like plastic. At that price point, it must be really great quality. Is she looking for a collab/ affiliate with Home Sense? Damn straight, she is.

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 6 points 4 days ago

That must be it because we all know this lazy ass only get coffee at the Tim’s drive thru.

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 6 points 4 days ago

I went to the winners today and saw it, there was 3 of them so not sure if she had bought one. But it was nothing special to tell people to run out and buy and I’m a pink girl too (unfortunately lol)

[–] Whaaambulence@lemmy.ca 9 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Her husband is retirement age, but is still working. He has a very good job. Ask yourself why he's still working......the answer is above. She can't afford him to

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 5 points 4 days ago

What’s he going to do if he retires? Hangout in the basement bar drinking beer.

[–] Uterusofsteel@lemmy.ca 11 points 5 days ago (1 children)

She made a 3 slide story talking manically about a Roots Wicked collab and how wild it was. READ THE FUCKING ROOM.

[–] Poofluencers@lemmy.ca 12 points 5 days ago

Thought the same - Shane must be away or out last night. Another sweater she’ll wear once and only cares about because it’s #trending. Go on your big girl boss trips Sarah that are all about you while creating absolutely nothing for the family you have and your children who actually deserve a sliver of your attention. Making cute videos playing with your toddler doesn’t fool me - it’s just for show.

[–] frosty_ad_3723@lemmy.ca 8 points 5 days ago (2 children)

She hasn’t mentioned it yet, but do you think she’ll be going to a Taylor Swift concert in Toronto next week? Surely yes, right??? I’m a big fan and could not get a ticket so I’ll be so envious!!

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 6 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Idk, she said she has 4 trips coming up so she may not even be home? But maybe she’ll go to the second week of shows, even though she isn’t even a fan.

[–] AlwaysMissing0@lemmy.ca 5 points 4 days ago (1 children)

That might be the surprise thing at the end of her super gruelling week of being a girl boss and travelling!

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

I was thinking that or she’s gonna go to an eagles game

[–] Lisamarie@lemmy.ca 4 points 4 days ago

Same, I really wanted to go!

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 15 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Her privilege is really showing today. While so many millions of people are terrified for their lives and future right now, here’s Birdie bragging about jetting off to 4 different places including two places in the States which she has shown ZERO concern for over the election.

She needs a reality check SO BAD. But she keeps getting everything handed to her and she’s so coddled she’ll never get that reality check at this rate. She just keeps skating by, not giving a shit about the world around her and getting everything she wants for free. It’s sickening to watch.

Also could her videos be any shittier quality? Jfc.

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 12 points 5 days ago

She’s so predictable. Happier than a pig in shit today after yesterday’s performance 🥹 I hope she ends up with Covid and the Flu 😷. Happy travels Birdshit.

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 16 points 6 days ago (4 children)

Not her acting today like she suddenly gives a shit about what is going on in the world. She didn’t once post about what is happening across the border so don’t act like today you suddenly care. She has a platform big enough to show that she gives a single shit but she chooses to ignore and act like the world is made of marshmallows and Disney castle's. Sorry but your fake ass concern today isn’t fooling me.

[–] curious_walriss_888@lemmy.ca 4 points 4 days ago

Here's the thing, someone mentioned on to Reddit sub that Shame is probably a T-bag supporter, and I mentioned the reason she probably hasn't said anything other than things feeling "weird" is because she shares those views. Shillian follows and supports HIH who is a major supporter of RJK, so I can imagine the reason all of those influencers who aren't speaking up are actually T-bag supporters, as well.

[–] 1hotpoetaytoe@lemmy.ca 17 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (3 children)

Oh no she didn’t 🤬 She can fuck right on off. As a middle aged female person of color in the US about to get fucked every which way she needs to NOT EVEN!!!! Excuse my strong language but I am feeling even my library card is being threatened right now!!!!

If anything, she will try to stand by "I didn't say anything because I am not American", but again, that will show her uneducated, white privilege. If she knew anything about anything, she would realize that the same rhetoric is seeping it's way into Canadian politics and we are in danger of far right taking cover the country, just because people don't like the leader we currently have. Many of the same things are at risk - including women's health care rights. She is a mother of daughters and she really needs to open her damn eyes. If you're going to have your phone in your face all day long, as least educate yourself with it.

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 12 points 6 days ago (1 children)

THIS!!! I’m sure she doesn’t even realize we have our own Trump like issues here because all she cares about in life is Disney and buying more crap to clutter her house with. I get sometimes people feel better just avoiding these things but I’m sorry when it’s as big as this you just can’t ignore it especially as a woman, a woman with daughters, if you care about the LGBTQ+ community, people of colour, etc. she literally stands for NOTHING except teens treat or treating rights and it’s pathetic. She doesn’t deserve her platform at all if she’ll never use it for good. I’d rather lose followers because I stood up for what I believed in instead of sitting on my hands afraid of what will happen when I show my support for people who need my support.

She’s a coward, that’s all that can be said. It was said on Reddit but maybe Shame and/or her are on the wrong side and that’s why she doesn’t speak up, not like she’s made us believe otherwise 🤷🏻‍♀️

[–] after_act@lemmy.ca 6 points 6 days ago

Her and Shillian won't say much of anything anymore. I think it's because MANY of their cult members are the same women who do support Trump and in Canada PP. They are white, middle class, probably very religious, lack critical thinking skills etc (I could do on). If either of them makes political statements that don't align with their base, they risk angering them, which could intern impact them doing things like stop buying the garbage they are constantly shilling.

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 12 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

She’s a spineless Tool who is more concerned with not losing followers and not compromising partners/future partnerships.
