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!

Sarah (The Birds Papaya) expects people to believe that she gained more followers (organically) than Celine Dion in the last 30 days. I think The Birds Papaya is bleeding followers and is buying bots.

Let's compare the two women to see why The Birds Papaya's numbers don't add up.

Sarah Nicole Landry is a 39.5 year old mother of four who lives in Guelph Ontario with her husband (who we suspect doesn't work). Sarah is known for taking nearly naked videos in her bathroom (she claims she is an underwear model and body confidence activist). In her bathroom Sarah (in underwear) will often slap her fupa, jiggle her skin folds and dance in her videos. In the last 30 days, Sarah also known as The Birds Papaya had one feature on yahoostyle.ca, the feature was pay for play. In the last 30 days Sarah had a paid article in Sports Illustrated. The article is about menstrual blood absorbing swimwear and how Sarah is being bullied. Sarah was featured in a press release for period panties and swimwear. No major outlets ran a story from the press release. Sarah's walk in the SI Miami swim show runway was over a month ago. For her appearance on the SI runway Sarah (The Birds Papaya) received no organic press coverage, wasn't mentioned on reddit, tiktok, she barely was mentioned on Instagram. Mainstream TV in Canada didn't mention Sarah's SI appearance. Have the Canadian media finally had enough with Sarah and her lies? The period underwear company- Essity paid for Sarah to walk the SI runway. Essity is a global hygiene company. Essity make period underwear, adult diapers and paper towel for commercial bathrooms.

Now let's take a look at Celine DIon who had had one of the busiest months of promotion in her LIFE.

Celine Dion is a Canadian born signer who has sold over 200 million albums worldwide. Celine is the best selling Canadian recording artist of all time. In the USA, Celine is the sixth best selling recording artist of all time. Globally Celine Dion is the second best selling female artist of all time. Celine comes second to legend Whitney Houston. Celine has a deep admiration for the late Whitney Houston, calling her an immense inspiration and the greatest. (Unlike Sarah, Celine does not have to be the best or the only). In the past 30 days Celine Dion has been featured on over 30+ magazine covers globally, including People Magazine in the USA. She's been featured on EVERY SINGLE North American media outlet. She has guested on the Today show and last night she surprised the NHL draft and announced the Montreal Canadians first round draft pick. Her new documentary- the top documentary holds a very rare 100% approval rate on Rotton Tomatoes. Her new single a remix of "I'm alive" sits 6 on on the charts. Celine is EVERYWHERE in the news.

On social media. Celine Dion is trending on X (USA and Canada), Celine Dion has 945,000 hash tagged posts on Instagram. When you search Celine Dion on Instagram she comes up as popular. On instagram, The Birds Papaya has 5000 tagged posts (mostly naked women or women in lingerie, string bikinis, tagging Sarah), her youngest child as a baby is reposted and tagged in many of the tagged images). When you search Celine Dion on Instagram she comes up as popular. The Birds Papaya does not. The Birds Papaya has almost no presence on the popular news and conversation platform Reddit. If no one is talking about you on Reddit it usually means no one is talking about you. As one can imagine Celine Dion's presence on Reddit is massive. There is too much to count. Celine Dion is trending on TikTok. The most serach Tiktok for The Birds Papaya is "the birds papaya snark".

Celine Dion remains incredibly popular globally. In Ghana and Nigeria she never stopped trending in the last 15 years, the combined population of these two countries is 251 million. Musical talents in both countries always remix Celine Dion. Celine is massively popular in Russia (population 142 million and yes Russians are on Instagram). Celine is LOVED in France and was just on not one but two covers of French Vogue (population of France 67 million). Celine is loved in the UK and all over the news in England (population 66.9 million). Celine is one of the most played music singer on YouTube in India. Celine Dion is most known faces of international music in India. (population 1.47 BILLION). Celine is on the cover of the India Express today. She was on the cover of Tribute India on June 19th she's also been on the cover of the Times of India, India Today, HELLO! India, and RollingStone India (in the last 30 days). This is worth noting as India and the United States have the greatest number of Instagram users. Much like other platforms, India leads the way even when it comes to Instagram. The country has 229.5 million Instagram users. The United States comes next with 149.35 million users. (source sprout social). When Celine debuts a song it always goes direct to no. 1 in 17 countries (source wikipedia).

Sarah is has a few real followers from northern states and in parts of Canada. Quebec don't know Sarah. When Sarah was on Breakfast Television many comments asked "who is this".

Sarah Nicole Landry the birds papaya is no where in the news online, in print, in social, on TV. Sarah wasn't invited to ONE TV show to discuss her SI appearance. Without Essity (the adult diaper and period underwear company) paying Sports Illustrated to feature The Birds Papaya, Sarah wouldn't have had any appearances in the past 40 days. When you google "Celine Dion" last 24 hours you get 67,200 results. When you google "The Birds Papaya" last 24 hours, you get 10 results. One result for Sarah is an article rerun about a belly falling over her panties, the rest of the results are her facebook etc. No news. No news in a banner like Celine.

WTF??? The Birds Papaya has gained 7,000 more followers than Celine Dion in the past 30 days. Sure Jan, sure.

*WHEN searching the last 24 hours I put both ladies names in quotations to obtain finite search results.

This is laughable. The Birds Papaya continues to somehow get more followers (90,000 in the last 30 days) than Alix Earle. As if!! Google Alix Earle "past 30 days" and see what you find. From features in Elle Magazine and Rolling Stone to USA Today, to being the star of the hottest summer music video, Alix Earle is everywhere and trending. Sarah, the birds papaya should be embarrassed. I wonder what Sarah's real follower count is and how many comments she would get without Shine Talent Management or her engagement pods?
