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 woman is TOO much! She’s at a family gathering for her grandpas bday and she’s busy on the phone trying to buy a goddamn goose. She legit can’t stop shopping no matter what.

Also her sitting stance is so contorted because she knows she’s being filmed. She’s ridiculous. Someone get her help.

[–] Selfabsorbedbarbie@lemmy.ca 15 points 1 month ago (3 children)

She's so selfish she can't even give her grandfather undivided attention. She's shallow. I would do anything to have my wonderful grandparents in my life. She makes me absolutely sick.

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

THIS! I’d give anything to spend a beautiful afternoon with my Nana and then there’s Sarah celebrating a 90th bday looking for a goose.

Unfortunately I feel the whole family enables this behaviour.

[–] outdatedavianfruit@lemmy.ca 11 points 1 month ago

Who even knew she had a grandfather ! Guess he doesn’t figure large in her celebrity life ! Sad.

[–] ladybonerforjustice@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 month ago

This is such a good point. My last remaining grandmother died a couple of years ago and I miss her so much. Sarah is incredibly lucky to still have grandparents as she approaches middle age; most of us don’t.

[–] SilpionGold@lemmy.ca 15 points 1 month ago (1 children)

This story resulted in me unfollowing her. Her mass consumerism and NEED for more items, only to be forgotten about the next day, is gross and unhealthy.

[–] Poofluencers@lemmy.ca 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

She does this “forgetting” about stupid stuff like geese and watch rings but she also does it for important things like breast heath and creating a charity to send woman to Disney too. She is so shallow.

[–] Selfabsorbedbarbie@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 month ago

Also running...

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 13 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

I don’t understand the obsession. Also why does this tool need to have her pathetic performative over consuming ass filmed for this.

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 12 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Seriously I don’t get where this sudden goose obsession came from?? And imagine her making someone else film her on the phone so she could post it, loser behaviour from the whole family.

[–] outdatedavianfruit@lemmy.ca 13 points 1 month ago

This person will obsess over anything. A sure sign she has way too much idle time on her hands, no real life goals, and needs to actually grow up and live in the real adult world. She lives in an arrested state of development… like a spoiled child

[–] Poofluencers@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 month ago

I mentioned up above that Briony has the giant skeleton. I’m sure Sarah was having lawn ornament envy and had to do it better than her bestie!

[–] outdatedavianfruit@lemmy.ca 13 points 1 month ago

How ignorant and rude. To her grandfather and her mother who hosted. This woman has NO MANNERS or consideration for others.. just all about her and her petty needs. Thought she could go no lower, but once again she is reaching the pit of decency.

[–] Glowpop@lemmy.ca 11 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Speaking on the phone looking for a cement porch goose as your social media content. Oof.

[–] Poofluencers@lemmy.ca 15 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I’d imagine the goal is to get a goose for free, like everything else.

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

Yupp, I’m sure many geese will end up on her porch after this

[–] Poofluencers@lemmy.ca 14 points 1 month ago

Yep, a follower will see it and drive 5hrs to bring her a goose her mom had in the 80s.

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I’m starting to think she likes to be annoying af

[–] cupidslazydart@lemmy.ca 17 points 1 month ago (1 children)

She's just desperate to always hop on whatever's trending, especially with Gen Z because she so badly wants to teenagers to think she's cool when she's just a boring middle aged mom (I say this as a boring 31-year-old mom 🤣). Beetlejuice is huge on TikTok with Gen Z right now, so that's probably going to be her new personality this month.

[–] crownofgold6@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 month ago

She tried making it her personality a couple weeks ago when she went to the movie premiere in LA. But she’s forgotten it mostly already.

[–] Glowpop@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 month ago

My god cringe. I can already see the video of her showing Shane and he doesn’t care/makes her feel stupid and she’s crying/laughing and making that face

[–] Selfabsorbedbarbie@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 month ago

Ew. Totally covering everything. Her arms are big again and her stomach looks like it's usual self. She's such a fraud.

[–] VirgoSnarker@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I shared the same screenshot in the thread below.. she posted a cement looking goose yesterday while she was “nostalgia shopping”. Did she not buy it? Does she need more? Does this lady ever obsess over anything she can’t eventually monetize with an affiliate link?

[–] VirgoSnarker@lemmy.ca 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)
[–] Selfabsorbedbarbie@lemmy.ca 12 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Like who actually gives a fuck? Seriously?

[–] FraudulentFruit1@lemmy.ca 14 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

How does she not feel like a complete loser posting an affiliate link for this bs 🤣 as if people are remotely interested in buying this.

[–] Poofluencers@lemmy.ca 13 points 1 month ago

Briony made a cool video with her giant skeleton so Sarah was feeling the envy - I bet this is why the lawn ornament was obsessively on her brain yesterday when she was thrifting. She is such a jealous empty person.

[–] Glowpop@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 month ago

For real, I’m so embarrassed. “Update” because people are waiting with bated breath to hear about the useless decoration. Just typing this out I’m embarrassed. Lol

[–] Selfabsorbedbarbie@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 month ago

Also, imagine your tight ass belt digging into your belly like this. It makes me uncomfortable seeing it.
