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!

Poor birdshit. A slew of people calling you out because you’re a fuckin phony grifting fraud
This comment sums her up. All these body-positive brands and influencers ever wanted was to be the hot girl. They couldn't compete, so they attacked the beauty industry and barreled their way in. Birdie wouldn't be at this party without tens of thousands of dollars worth of procedures done to her face, without her extensions and a professionally made-up face—such a farce.
Right! She's the fakest!
I love this take!!
For someone who doesn’t care about the comments she always has to post about the comments 🙄
With “real life friends” lol what a dumb thing to say, what is she 12?
It shows they aren't her real friends. Lauren didn't post her. SI didn't post her. Lol
I don’t understand her obsession with saying she’s collecting stories for when she’s a much older woman. It’s quite presumptuous to think she’s going to reach old age but even more presumptuous to think people want to listen to her talk about herself all the time! Such a narc!
And that somehow she is doing this living thing so much better than the rest of us. Wonder if in her older years she’s going to be raising her grandchild holding on to all her memories.
She'll never raise a child or grandchild; she's not capable.
It’s just a women “empowering” schtick! Live your life so you have memories for the future. Okay, Nostradamus! Okay, Yogananda!
Lol she's not so tiny eh. What a loooooser! People don't like you Birdshit. Your "career" is over!
I feel like she only posted the Getty image to be like see, I’m much smaller than usual and don’t filter! The thing is, she still looks bigger here than the size 2/4 she filters herself into on her own page AND she’s still lying about losing weight. We all know you’re on Ozempic like every other fraudulent “body positive” influencer so own up to it.
The vanity is busting out of the seems with her. She acts like being done up and having pictures taken of yourself is the top moment of life and what everyone should strive for. She makes me feel ill
I’d much rather have pictures where I’m genuinely happy in normal every day clothes making memories with my family or just enjoying simple things in life than photos where I’m way overdone on a red carpet and faking it for the cameras. The little moments with family or friends should be more memorable than one picture like this but we all know it isn’t to her. She’d rather have the red carpet photo than a candid with her daughter, unfortunately all the photos with her daughter are manufactured too and not even authentic.
Seriously though. Her life goals are twisted.
and check the low brows, smaller eyes and larger neck on the getty image.
She definitely looks like a size 10 easily. She's a fraud.
Now they are using this photo as the worst dressed bwhahaha
Hahahahaha I love it 😂
