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!

Sure is funny how she’s shared ZERO content of actual Brazil. I know it’s likely for safety reasons but she hasn’t shared that whatsoever, I feel like she’s embarrassed and doesn’t want to actually discuss why they’ve done no exploring when she could discuss it and actually look like she knows something about her surroundings. Like yesterday when she said “oh we’re just taking the time to actually chill for once”, but I feel like they were forced to “chill” because they were just holed up in the hotel with no choice.
The whole thing is pretty embarrassing honestly. I can’t believe nfl canada wasted money to send her to Brazil just so she could film multiple half naked videos in her hotel room. What a waste.
It’s also just a REALLY bad look imo after all the discussion about carbon emissions and its impact on the planet. She should have stayed home and the NFL shouldn’t have flown people to Brazil unnecessarily.
Agreed!!!! There was honestly NO need to send her to brazil for this game. It’s not like she was some special correspondent sharing game day experiences or interviews with the players etc. They legit flew her there to sit in a hotel and film videos of dumb outfits and eating banana snacks. Honestly such a waste all around.
Also agree! She shouldn't have accepted this hosted opportunity and the NFL needs to do better.
Do you think this was an offer or something she sought out for a free anniversary getaway?
This is my question too. I think her and Shine pitched it and because NFL Canada is trying for engagement they said yes? Otherwise it looks like the NFL Canada actually believes Sarah does so much for the world (🤯🤮) that she deserves this gift? I’m baffled.
Her one talent is she’s an excellent grifter.
NFL Canada is with Narrative PR. They are pals with Shine and obviously lazy when it comes to strategy. NFL Canada needs a new PR team.
Her reel about how Shane got all rowdy at his first NFL game. Like she’s been to…two? and she fan girl followed the eagles and now she’s like a Philly girl? It’s so insulting as embarrassing
Lmao seriously. She’s acting like she’s this lifelong Eagles fan who’s been going to games for ages and she finally got her husband to a game to experience what’s she’s known all along. She’s been a fan like all of 8 games lol. I hate people like her, if she ever gets into hockey idk what I’ll do with myself because that’s my main passion.
Yes that’ll piss me off too! Stay in your melty rubbery fake ass lane birdy!
Female hockey fans already get such a bad rap, someone like her would only make it worse. Someone in her comments told her to take Shane to an nhl game and I’m like PLEASE GOD NO!!
It’s so annoying because women liking sports shouldn’t be such a big deal (or “liking” in her case). It’s giving pick me/NLOG vibes. Just…enjoy the sport like everyone else?! lol.
