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!

This makes me angry. Does she really think it helps people to know how great things are for her? She has no idea the struggles people face.

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 8 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 13 hours ago) (1 children)

I wish she did quit. Basically things getting better to her is getting more trips and freebies 🤷🏻‍♀️

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 6 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

I don’t believe for a second she was serious about quitting.

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 4 points 12 hours ago

Me neither. She loves the validation she gets too much and all the free crap. Plus even if she did come on one day and say “hey guys, I think I’m done with this life” she’d have DM’s telling her how much she’s needed and that’d be enough reason for her to stay.

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 14 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Lmaoooooo sure. After getting flirty with other men at the SI party just a few days ago.

It’s still amazes me how she doesn’t feel bad at all for leaving L for the 4th time in a week. She has left that little girl SO MANY times this year and doesn’t care at all because Sarah’s living the life. NK is becoming her mom more and more by the day.

[–] Whaaambulence@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 day ago

Far enough away he can still check his Only Fans girls subscriptions without S seeing

[–] Uterusofsteel@lemmy.ca 13 points 1 day ago (1 children)

So she's going to Hawaii for some Aulani Disney Resort Moana shit. I wouldn't expect her to care about what the indigenous Hawaiians think. Even my 14 yr old said she wanted to go to Hawaii, but we aren't wanted, so we went elsewhere. The islands and the people have a lot of healing to do. Not even going to get into her leaving her kids AGAIN.

[–] Whaaambulence@lemmy.ca 17 points 1 day ago (1 children)

This women deserves none of this, expects everything and appreciates nothing. At this rate, her kids are better off without her. Imagine this clown being somebody they're supposed to look up to? The carbon footprint she's leaving on this world for her own stunted "joys" will destroy the world for them anyways

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

Well said! Her own “joys” - because she’s really just searching for wholeness in on the wrong places. I just watched Dopesick and I don’t want to water down the disgusting impact of addictive painkillers and the slimy people who sold them but it made me think of influencers and the sickness of never being good enough they are creating in our day. Just because you get paid, get free trips, someone needs you make them even more money and puts you on a pedestal it does not = good. Glamor might be fun for spectators but it comes at a cost to others but the lowest people like Sarah don’t care.

[–] Poofluencers@lemmy.ca 13 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Lazy hobby mom says good morning from her bed when she’s been away for a week and everyone else cares for the kids and home. She’s hardly seen L but still lays in bed posting for her career job and making more content instead of cherishing some special time with her. Shane’s been putting her to bed every night and this morning instead of letting him rest she plunks back in bed. She is so selfish. My bet on their big fun day is heading to the mall to buy L’s love.

It really makes you wonder if she bursts into tears or gets violent when someone tries to ask for more support at home. Nothing bad has ever happened to Sarah, why is she so catered to? Shane has to have zero gumption to live this kind of life - money or not. I come from a very large family so many in-laws and from the in-law side there is always a hesitation to use the grandparent in-laws. I don’t think much of any of them but Shane has to feel like an ass passing of his kid while his wife is away playing.

[–] facialSwelling@lemmy.ca 15 points 2 days ago (3 children)

It's shocking how she treats L. She's not a mother. She birthed a kid for attention and fame and then discarded the child. Anyone who questions her is attacked with a barrage of guilt; SHE never got to do "this" before. Sadly, she isn't leaving L for a career or work. Attending movie premieres, parties, and football games isn't work. She's not paid to post about these activities. She's given these activities in exchange for posts. That's not work; that's fun and partying. She's not a CEO; she's never been one. The only thing she's built is a massive lie that pays. The most significant payment that enabled her to live this life came from Knix. This payment gave her a lot of money and access. Knix bought her a reputation as an empowered woman. Brands that need more marketing intellect followed suit. The result has been more power and prestige for Sarah and more landfill garbage for humanity: shelves stocked with merchandise that doesn't sell, events that no one attends, photoshoots for vanity purposes only, BS parties. Sarah is an empty vessel who churns out garbage content in exchange for attention and perceived superiority. L is just another prop. The kid doesn't even rate as high as Sarah's skinny Walmart mirror.

[–] outdatedavianfruit@lemmy.ca 13 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Clearly stymied as to why she had a fourth, as her motherhood days were obviously over and done with… she is a mere token, hobby mother just as she wished. Her main priority is herself and her career goals. I feel judgmental writing this, but there are women in this world who desperately want a child to nurture and 100% be involved in raising them. This is not the picture I see here and it is very sad.

[–] Kar@lemmy.ca 9 points 2 days ago (1 children)

The thing wearing on me is that this isn’t how a career oriented parent is parenting today. Maybe a 1950s dad? But even executive level dads today are home more and not laying in bed in a house with a preschooler who’s awake and they’ve hardly seen for weeks. Career moms still carry a lot of the mental load of families but many times I’ve had calls with even career dads cancelled because they’re home with a sick kid.

Career dads with stay at home wives aren’t this disengaged.

It’s not a career vs parenthood thing at all despite her efforts to sell it as that - I think you hit the nail on the head that she is done with motherhood.

[–] outdatedavianfruit@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 days ago

Wow you have made such a valid statement here !

[–] Whaaambulence@lemmy.ca 12 points 2 days ago

This woman values nothing but herself. Ever. Sarah is the main character in her story and the rest are just side bars and props.

[–] BirdsaLiar@lemmy.ca 5 points 2 days ago

Well said!!!

[–] frosty_ad_3723@lemmy.ca 13 points 3 days ago (4 children)

I knew she’d be going to Taylor Swift. I’m a big fan and could not get tickets. So jealous! Of course, someone gave her a presale code. Quite the charmed week she’s had!

[–] 1hotpoetaytoe@lemmy.ca 7 points 2 days ago

I had similar rage when she got those amazingly close seats for Beyoncé and was like eh, it was cool, I guess. I paid a lot a lot in LA and was VERY NOT close. Even if you are not a true Beyoncé fan that show was a captivating work of art. That experience was wasted on her!

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 13 points 3 days ago

I hate it as a fan too who couldn’t even get a sniff at tickets. The fact someone gave her a code when she isn’t even a fan is so ridiculous. She always gets everything.

Poor L being totally forgotten about this whole week though.

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 12 points 3 days ago

Whatever BirdShit wants BirdShit gets. It’s actually unreal.

[–] Poofluencers@lemmy.ca 9 points 3 days ago (1 children)

And she’s leaving again next week. I wonder how L feels in her little heart. Her mother must feel so distant right now. Sarah could have stayed home. She’s hoping to get attention as J clearly hasn’t want to be her sidekick recently. It’s just not a good look!

[–] Poofluencers@lemmy.ca 8 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Yep - so predictable - there she is getting all the attention. I cut if off but this wonderful fan even posted J in the photo who clearly doesn’t want to be shared. Her fans are bs. And Sarah sharing it w/o the edit is her selfishness to the max.

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

I look forward to seeing this clown next year if she plans on showing up for her son’s high school things! Unless he’s at College Heights?? She hasn’t really divulged what learning issues he has..because why offer advice to people in similar situations right?

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

CH is being revamped next year and there’s no grade 9/10 there anymore.

[–] AlwaysMissing0@lemmy.ca 15 points 3 days ago (1 children)

She woke her kid up when she got home late at night to make content and post so she can show her followers she’s a good mom that loves the kid she barely parents. I’m so convinced she’s a great mom!

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

I thought the same. If she’s missing her toddler so much she has to disrupt her sleep she could maybe…just choose her daughter over her career job things everyone and a while. I bet she craves a grand welcome when she comes home from trips and they probably all prefer it when she’s not home.

Sarah isn’t only impacting her kids lives but her “angel” mother is tied down because L needs her. What if Sarah’s sister needed some help or just wanted a visit with her mum but she can’t because everyone serves Sarah. How sad is that? She is so incredibly selfish.

[–] Uterusofsteel@lemmy.ca 15 points 4 days ago

Every outfit she tried on was more hideous than the next. She has zero zero zero fashion sense. Nothing was chic or sexy. She looked like a reject Mad Max extra. Goes to show how people around her treat her with baby gloves, too cause Bailey was way too nice about all that lol I definitely appreciate my friends being more brutally honest. I don't think she could handle that though.

[–] outdatedavianfruit@lemmy.ca 12 points 4 days ago

The body makeup ? Someone gave her really bad advice on that one and she got sucked in. All I can see is orange and grease. So natural/s Once again she falls into the hard and trashy vibe. No classic naturally beautiful look to see here. So sad when you have to fake it, to make it.

[–] Uterusofsteel@lemmy.ca 15 points 4 days ago (1 children)

There's a video from one of the other attendees where they start moving around and making silly poses. SNL never moves. She keeps her stupid pose like a statue. With her arms firmly by her side and her leg jutting forward. She has her "slimming" poses down pat, and she is definitely not gonna break them. What a sad existence for a 40 year old woman. Imagine not being able to ever fully let go and be in motion or have fun because of some delusion you have created for yourself online?

[–] Poofluencers@lemmy.ca 10 points 4 days ago

Her statue poses on the red carpet are so stiff. She is never just living. The other girls are just so free and it truly shows on their faces.

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 11 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (2 children)

Why does she do this weird mouth shit?

[–] Uterusofsteel@lemmy.ca 11 points 4 days ago

She's an awkward weirdo

[–] Whaaambulence@lemmy.ca 8 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Probably because she's high again

So is she Just Bailey’s guest for this event then? 😏

[–] Poofluencers@lemmy.ca 10 points 4 days ago

I feel like she wakes up, reads our posts, and tries to convince us we’ve got it all wrong. Her post has her on the red carpet sucking up to other models and the unfiltered photos from the make up artist. She’s always just going to be adjacent - most of us can be okay with that and live our best lives. Sarah has such a sad existence.

[–] Poofluencers@lemmy.ca 9 points 4 days ago (6 children)

Makeup artist photo vs. Sarah’s photo. I guess my iPhone is still filtering Sarah’s photos. I know it’s subtle but still. She can’t stop herself.

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

This is more makeup than I wore in my wedding lol and that’s a lot.

[–] AlwaysMissing0@lemmy.ca 9 points 4 days ago

At what point does bronzer count as brown face? Asking for a friend…

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 10 points 4 days ago

Lmao how is this a good look. Why is she so orange lol

[–] Whaaambulence@lemmy.ca 9 points 4 days ago (1 children)
[–] Uterusofsteel@lemmy.ca 10 points 4 days ago (1 children)

That makeup is so outdated too, and makes her look older. She can't help it because she must look like a sex vixen at all times but she would look so much better in an understated look with a focus on glowing (NOT ORANGE) skin.

[–] facialSwelling@lemmy.ca 10 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Her entire look is screaming 2010 edgy Pinterest girl. She's brought back a version of beige-goth Sarah. We all know what happened when she beige goth'd last time. Shane better get ready for divorce. Sarah is in man-hunt mode. Perhaps this is why she's renovated the house to be entirely her style???

[–] Whaaambulence@lemmy.ca 8 points 4 days ago

She literally looks like Isabel Clancy's satire TT account about getting ready in 2000's....but Birdie seriously thinks she's hot stuff

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

Damn the MUA contoured the shit outta her face
