One minute posting about not being able to eat because of the stress cankers, next minute “reso” at one of the most expensive restaurants SPACE 220!
  • 🥰Anytime. Influencers who accept a ton of stuff might be in for a surprise with the CRA. The CRA is shifting its focus to social media. I was audited for broadcast expenses and event styling expenses a while back. It was a nightmare. Once you are in the media, the CRA will look closely at your business. I return stuff I shows on TV, unless I pay for it. It's not worth the tax bill. It pisses me off that some influencers go on TV shows and brag about what they make. Many content creators and editorial people don't make the kind of money influencers brag about. The CRA is going to think those who don't make big money are lying. 😖

  • It's highly unlikely that TBP or her family are paying for their Disney vacation. Flights probably. Park stuff, food I doubt it. As a features editor at House and Home magazine I was sent to Disney to cover the Epcot Flower and Garden show. H&H paid my flights and I was given and editorial pass to the show. Disney also covered the hotel, food and dining. Back then I had a million articles on the go so didn't explore the park other than the garden festival and a parade. The trip was work. And not influencer style work. I was interviewing garden experts, managing photo shoots and etc. I worked with Disney again from 2012 to 2015 with Pandora Jewelry. Disney and Pandora are partners. I was sent to Disney World to style Pandora bracelets at the Pandora Disney World store. I was always given a very nice hotel room and a Disney bracelet thing. I could have (but didn't) charged souvineers and shopping to the bracelet. I charged food to it. I never saw a bill. I was offered a golf cart to travel the park and had access to rides, no line. In 2018 I went to DW with an ex. He was an actor-- OMG they kissed his 🍑we didn't pay for anything-- I hated it because it wasn't work related. We ate at Club 33, had a golf cart, skipped lines, our hotel room was always getting gifts sent over. I hated this experience. We both could afford to pay for Disney. The ex set all this up. It felt gross and tacky. I'd see families sweltering with little ones waiting in line for rides. Meanwhile a 60 year old toddler born with a silver spoon was complaining when service wasn't fast enough. I would see the prices of things and gag. When I was a kid Disney was way more accessible. Families could drive down camp affordably and go to the park. (I ended the relationship soon after or trip to Disney. He was mad as I refused to post about Disney). I chuckled the ex's new partner (who seems genuinely lovely but new to this freebee world) go to Disney all the time, take Disney cruises. 🤔This is the thing-- there will always be people who take take take. And now anyone can flash their bits, buy-followers, cause a stir- go viral and go to Disney for free. 😵‍💫 For me the frequency of these influencers trips is alarming, the greed!! And they don't disclose. I noticed a Canadian TV show host do this with Sunwing Vacations. She takes her family on a couple trips a year. To me they all end up losing. Some of my best adventures have been on a dime and spontaneous-- "free or gifted" takes that joy away. 🌸One fun Disney story- when I worked with Pandora I attended Disney employee training. Did you know only Minnie is allowed to wear black tights? And I had to learn the princesses so I could greet little ones with hello princess or hello queen Elsa. The BTS stuff was pretty neat. I also spent an afternoon stocking shelves at the Pandora store before I told them I was their special guest. 😄.

  • She does for sure! When I followed the Reddit someone caught her forgetting to switch accounts. She was commenting on her own account from her own account as Scott. I had to step away from even observing her or her Reddit because it confused me so much 🤣

  • Thank you so much for your note ❤️🥹you just made me feel so much better. I really admire all of you! And I love Botox and Dysport. Personally I don't think people have to disclose anything- unless they are someone like Sarah who is claiming to NOT get injections. I disclose stuff because I write about beauty and health. I think it's important if I'm reviewing a face product or even a sports bra to explain I've had work done. I've learned it's fair to manage expectations. ❤️thanks again for being kind.

  • ❤️40 is still young adult 😁I'll post soon about what I found really worked. A lot of things just made me look bloated and old. I wasted a lot of money on junk I now see MLM's selling. But I also think I found some good stuff that is not too expensive. At 40 I did start using glycolic acid daily -- I'm almost 50 and I everyday I am really happy I started that habit. Neostrata is an amazing line (not sponsored or affiliated). For the longest time in the USA, 10% or higher glycolic acid required a prescription and was 3x more expensive than what we pay in Canada. I'd smuggle Neostrata to Los Angeles for friends, including many facialists. I use the Neostrata glycolic renewal on my body and face every day. It's not created for faces but heck. I love it. You may need to start with every few days and work up to daily. At 40 I was getting very noticeable aging on my décolleté- this changed that. Also-- sorry I realize you aren't looking for advice but I figured-- why not share 🥰🥰 https://www.neostrata.ca/products/glycolic-renewal-smoothing-ltn-200ml/F30133XA.html?cgid=ingredients-glycolic-acid&tilePosition=5

  • I'm not a fan of Alicia but I'm 99.9% sure the accounts sending her nasty comments belong to her or to someone in camp Papaya. 🤔 I can't see any of these accounts as they've already blocked me. BTW, my names J (Janette). Have we chatted before?

  • Come on! Where's the other half?
  • Hi I'm a journalist (lifestyle) working on a story about the subject. The people on this page and the Reddit have helped, and continue to help uncover a the wake of damage this person may have caused. This wake may include plagiarism of BIPOC artists and writers, body dysmorphia triggering, taking opportunities from others via potentially deceitful practices. The posts here and mainly on Reddit have also led me to research a period panty brand that the subject is very involved with. I'm specifically looking into PFAS and the language brands use in their content to possibly justify levels of forever chemicals in their menstral products. A very recent study illustrates how PFAS (including short strand PFAS) can be absorbed by skin. PFAS can also cause more harm during hormonal periods for women. The EPA (under Trump) made significant changes to PFAS reporting. These changes are now getting looked at. I can imagine we will all hear a great deal about PFAS in the near future. I'm looking into why ALL of this ⬆️was overlooked by Canadian media. I'm also possibly presenting the information to a member of parliament to see if they can some how have menstral products regulated in Canada. *California is enforcing regulation law on menstrual products. If it weren't for this group or their close examination of the subjects behaviors, I would have never looked into the behaviors of the subjects brand partners. I've received threats for discussing this on Instagram. I've received demand letters from lawyers and I've also may have received "what do you need to shut up" phone calls. Before YOU also try to shame and silence this group may I suggest you take a step back and understand often people gossip when something doesn't feel right. (This is all my opinion and for education and entertainment purposes). Here is an article from this weekend. I can send you a copy of the full study if you have interest.

  • Hi 🙂you just made me blush. 🙏🏼One thing to note: TBP downplays medical procedures she gets because they are non surgical. Over a year ago TBP mentioned getting a fancy facial--the medical procedure she was gifted- Sofwave- is not a facial. Sofwave is laser mixed with intense ultrasound- technology that had to get FDA approval. It's not a facial at all. I also had Sofwave, I was told it takes a long time to see the difference. When the treatment finally took, the difference on my jawline and jowels is pretty amazing. I had invasive jawline tightening surgery in 2019 (EmbraceRF) and Sofwave out performed EmbraceRF! TBP always pushes how "real" she is. I think that's part of what can make her followers depressed. My estimate is that TBP has had equal if not more non-evasive medical procedures and injections than I have. I've had a lot. *This isn't a promotion for Sofwave. It's great procedure but it's expensive and requires yearly maintenance. That's why I'm saving for a facelift. Note: *I'd trade all the treatments in the world for kids and a partner. TBH it's kinda sad why I still care about this stuff. I have no retirement plan and basically started over in 2023. I need to make up time. In my 30's I was straight up vain and trying to cover up a life of excess with fillers and Botox. It wasn't a good look. I'd love to say looks don't matter in the industry I work but sadly they do. People like Sarah make it even harder. This isn't my before and after for Sofwave but it will give you an idea.

  • I'm happy to send you a full resume of my past and current volunteer work and activism. It's extensive. You can also visit the orange hearts 🧡 on my stories archive. My current focus is on women's health, supporting small business and Tyre Nichols. I'm sure you are following the current trials it seems everything is being done to further hurt his family. My volunteer time for that has been spent on producing short videos, campaigning on behalf of the family, supporting his friends and pushing press releases to the media on the list I was asked to handle. If you would like to chat about the Middle East, the war, the horrific human tragedies let's set up a call. I warn you it may require hours, especially with all the countries and powers at play. I'd love your thoughts on the Wagner Group. This talk can be overwhelming. If you aren't up for it I'll send you the link of a great organization. They support refugees in a hands on way. We are expecting more Palistinian refugees. One small thing I'd like to do is to study art therapy. I feel useless most of the time. What can we do? Perhaps that's one thing I can learn. Help in a tiny way. Below is an image of the stories archive you can find more. The skateboard tab is for Tyre. 🧡

    If you are looking to cancel me, maybe say I have stuffed toys?? Or something like that. If you want to shut me up. That might be harder.

  • You seem in a tizzy! I am a reporter. A lifestyle reporter. Would you like to speak to my editors? Have you heard of LinkedIn? Thanks for sending the bossbabe article. Yes there is repetition of copy. I will send it to the plagaisrm expert this week. In my opinion there are portions that are plagiarized. It's not enough of a match to come up in an search. Sar*h's copy matched exactly to Cloud Tailors copy so it came up in a search. BTW. One person plagiarizing doesn't erase another person doing it.

    You seem panicky. Are you ok? If it's upsetting to be on this page don't be here. Once I get the plagiarism results I'll post them on Instagram. With a few other samples. My question still holds if S*rah "bought" the article, then why the texts messages that state she agrees it's plagiarism and blames her staff. Will you ask her next time you see her? I'll dig away to try to find the OG article. I'll get to that search in the next two weeks.

    I'll also speak to Dyson's agency. I've worked with them over the years. Don't worry I won't mention names. I'll just get their thoughts on ... what did you call them, private label articles-- we used another term at Chatelaine and the Globe and Mail. I checked my most recent contract from Dyson, for me, Dyson and their agency required custom content that hadn't been used previously. No pre-existing rights, intellectual property/ content... blah blah blah.

    FYI- we aren't the bad guys. The the list of lies tied to person you are desperately protecting is long. The DM's I am getting with receipts, I can't keep up with. There are that many. As for the filtering. I won't back down on that. I have eyes. Your friend can produce original files if she wants. Those can be read for adjustments. The people here aren't looking to hurt anyone, we want honesty. Also who cares if people filter. No one. But when you preach that you don't. You can shift a whole industry and push people unfairly out. When media starts covering for influencers who lie. And LIE to their viewers and readers, I'm invested. That's a story. You see I care about what's going to be around for the next generation. Totalitarism sucks.

    Lastly a question for you, how's your cat? 🐈‍⬛
