I love how she she said she adopted a āsurfer styleā because it was all that would fit herā¦ Iām a similar age and Roxy (the brand sheās wearing) wasnāt cheap and was what the āpopular girlsā wore soā¦ another lie.

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 hereās a very brief introduction which hopefully will clear a few things up.
The woman weāre 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 (Iād argue worse) from the likes of Jay Shetty (google him if you donāt know who he is or what he did). Sheās 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 sheās Canadian. Our laws around social media and advertising arenāt as clear (and where they are sheās disobeyed them), add to that, our mainstream media has protected her from those whoāve tried to expose her grift and silenced/intimidated anyone whoās 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 weāre just āshitting on herā 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 sheās 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.
Weāre grateful to have been welcomed so kindly by so many of you, and to those sticking around to watch the drama unfold, weāre glad to have you!

Yeah, she would have been wearing guys Billabong instead of Roxy if size was the issue. She wore it straight up because it was trendy back then.
It fits small imo too!
She wasnāt overweight. She was always average size before she had her kids. She made up a whole fairy tale. I do believe her sister had an ED
Her sister had jaw surgery in high school and had her jaw wired shut. She developed an ED from that. When TBP started IG with her weightloss and people started noting she had an ED, she threw her sister under the bus and told her story as a deflection because she could "never" have an ED because her sister had one. Then, many years later - shock and awe...she cops to having one because she was literally starving herself. YET had no problem making a platform, getting on the cover of Heidi Powells mag, etc, claiming it was all "fitness". She's always has been and always will be a liar, especially when it comes to making a "story" that will fit the current trend
Itās just incredible she has the platform she does. Sheās always telling stories that donāt belong to her. She adopts the characteristics of those around her and makes them her own. She outright steals other peopleās work and claims it as hers. Youāre right - sheās always been a liar and she continues to be a liar and a manipulator. Sheās the kind of liar to will tell a tiny bit of the truth and then make up the rest of the story. Why do people follow her and look up to her? She represents everything something should NOT want to emulate. Sheās the cautionary tale.
I honestly wonder how her sister feels about that. One: to share something so private about a sibling. Two: to take something so personal for her sister and use it as her own "trauma". The depths she goes is so despicable. And that's only one thing on a long list of gross misdeeds.
I'm sure its very intentional that her sister lives further away from them all and keeps to herself.
Oh absolutely!
And, of course, Sarah took her sisterās illness and made it her own. She can't have her sister getting all the attention now, right?
Her oldest looks so much like her sister in this picture!!
