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!

Not the everyday skin texture that shows up in her IG stories

[–] GumboYaYa@lemmy.ca 6 points 9 hours ago

..and the cheek filler! She filters that way down.

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 8 points 17 hours ago

Dead, soulless eyes

[–] BirdsaLiar@lemmy.ca 9 points 18 hours ago

There’s some fantastic same day side by sides on Reddit. She clearly filters a ton. Pathetic liar.

[–] MoonChild@lemmy.ca 12 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

She just can’t help herself even when she knows someone else will be photographing her. It’s sick.

Side-by-side compliments of my Reddit pal

[–] facialSwelling@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 day ago

This is a good one! #fraud #thebirdspapaya

[–] Poofluencers@lemmy.ca 14 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (4 children)

Engagement low - pull out the mental health card, she is disgusting . As soon as she gets home she’ll be in her underwear.

I’m also surprised by this pairing. Bird is very obviously pursuing thinness but claiming it’s stress related. Bird is a huge problem, the kind Alex speaks out about. It’s kinda embarrassing for Alex.

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 12 points 1 day ago

I always wonder when people meet her for the first time in person if it’s a shock to them

I said on Reddit but I love how she doesn’t thank her family or at least her husband for taking on all the responsibility so she can do this stuff. Only thanks to her fake bot followers.

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

Endless travel on other people’s dime but hasn’t had the best last couple of years. Fuck right off.

[–] ThatOrangeBird@lemmy.ca 14 points 1 day ago

Also interestingly, those years she frames as not the best were very obviously her busiest, with the highest value collabs and opportunities, and multiple trips and adventures both alone and with family. They only sucked because it was the first time the truth about her having completely built her career on a fake, edited appearance came out very obviously. She's such a spoiled whiner.

[–] BirdsaLiar@lemmy.ca 14 points 1 day ago

You can really tell which posts she buys engagement for

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

She hasn’t had the best couple of years mentally? Is she talking about how she didn’t make good decisions? She played the mental health card briefly and then chose joy - what was it - 3 months - tops? She just yanks this out from her back pocket like her phone and throws it down when she’s feeling some heat. It’s deplorable.

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 11 points 1 day ago (5 children)

An opinion she doesn’t like = a crash out

[–] bunniculamonroe@lemmy.ca 12 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (4 children)

I agreed with him until the "women are so weak and emotionally unstable" part. It showed his misogyny and added nothing to the conversation. It actually weakened the point he was trying to make.

[–] Selfabsorbedbarbie@lemmy.ca 8 points 18 hours ago

I think he meant birdshit is weak on which he isn't wrong

[–] MoonChild@lemmy.ca 8 points 21 hours ago

The weak woman thing is bad!

[–] Whaaambulence@lemmy.ca 12 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Sounds like something a man with a racists back tattoo would say through a fake profile for engagement

[–] MoonChild@lemmy.ca 8 points 21 hours ago

He probably had stretch marks of his own!

[–] facialSwelling@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yup. Smells like Shane's balls.

[–] Whaaambulence@lemmy.ca 9 points 19 hours ago

All 17ml of sweat LOL

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 day ago

Ya he should have said some women instead alluding to all women.

[–] Uterusofsteel@lemmy.ca 14 points 1 day ago (1 children)

She made 3 more stories about it. She sure does seem bothered that man only finds the stretch marks on his wife attractive and not on her. She wants everyone's husbands to find her attractive, i guess. She's 41, it's time to decenter the male gaze. wtf do you even care? By trying to convince us she doesn't care, it's very obvious she does.

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

Super bothered. Turns everything into sex related.

[–] Selfabsorbedbarbie@lemmy.ca 9 points 18 hours ago

Sex with you???? What I nthe actual fuck. She went there? Ewwsss Why am I blocked? I'd love to call her out on that one.

[–] Richbynameonly@lemmy.ca 9 points 21 hours ago

Tagging Bekah Martinez, as if she gives a flying fuck about some random try-hard from Guelph Ontario. Loser

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 12 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

This is such a great take from the commenter, too bad she doesn’t realize that. Not everyone has to love everything or think everyone is beautiful/handsome, etc. She can never accept a reasonable take, she always thinks it’s hate.

And the person isn’t coming across as “crashing out” whatsoever. They actually seem pretty level headed 🤷🏻‍♀️

[–] Uhohla@lemmy.ca 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Besides the part about calling women “emotional “ and all?

She sucks. He sucks too.

But she will milk this for awhile.

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 7 points 17 hours ago

Yes that part was unnecessary I agree.

She’s far too wrapped up in someone not finding her sexually attractive though

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 11 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That’s what I thought. She is the one crashing out.

[–] BirdsaLiar@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 day ago

She’s so disgustingly self absorbed.

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

Looking for engagement! She’s sad her latest London post only got 150 comments. It’s really obvious she needs this trips and red carpets to hit well from an engagement perspective. She plans posts to come all at once. Poor birdshit and her hard years 🙄

[–] GumboYaYa@lemmy.ca 5 points 9 hours ago (2 children)

She treats trips like a company’s sending her on a vacation to play dress up. All of her after thoughts and even content is just about her, pictures of her or a croissant or some other gluten free shit she ate.

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 5 points 8 hours ago

Such a good point! I truly don’t know why companies keep sending her on free trips, she does NOTHING to showcase the reason she’s actually there. Like you said it’s all about hair and makeup and her new dress and the food she ate.

[–] facialSwelling@lemmy.ca 4 points 9 hours ago

True, I have no clue what the movie she went to see is about.

[–] MoonChild@lemmy.ca 11 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I like this take. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. It’s not new but Big Bird can’t wrap her mind around it

[–] BirdsaLiar@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 day ago

How dare anyone not put her on a purchased pedestal! (Insert affiliate link)

[–] MoonChild@lemmy.ca 15 points 1 day ago

Movie premier and Traitors - come on!
