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!

Sarah Nicole Landry has become a professional victim and she wants the world to know about it. I haven’t read the article yet but I’m going to assume it’s a woe is me story and how she’s going a great service for women everywhere by ‘showing up’ I’ll let you know if I’m right!
She loves to act like such a victim when she probably only got like 1 or 2 bad comments and then she acts like everyone is out to get her. For the most part all she gets is positive comments about her body. Even from us, the only thing we snark in regards to her body is how much she filters her body. She acts like she’s the only person out here with belly flab, an apron belly, cellulite, stretch marks, etc. when it is SO common. There’s far more things to judge about her than her body that’s for sure.
I think I find it most concerning her “friends” and family continue to foster these delusions. Acting as if she has paved the way for post babies bodies like Ashley Graham to have a place on the runway or something 🙄
I don’t think anyone truly loves her or they’d stop this tbh. They’re all just riding her coattails.
I was gonna go read it because I really do read a lot and love to stay informed, and then I realized that is in sports illustrated who also hosted the event, so like… The call is coming from inside the house;). Credibility is everything, So, although multiple media outlets will feature or post articles and attribute the writing to sports illustrated, the fact that it’s out on sports, illustrated, firstly lessens the impact of whatever is said. Even people who are snorkelers are not criticizing her body, because it literally just looks like a normal body of a 40-year-old! Like that’s it and there’s nothing wrong with that. People here are noticing how different photos that she posts look compared to things that are posted by other people who are not using multiple filters. Now I have not read the article, so maybe if I do, I’ll discover that somewhere along the lines it says something like “multiple trolls were asking her why she looks so different in photos taken by other people than the edited photos and videos she presents” but my well educated guess is that she’s upset that people who follow sports illustrated said she wasn’t up to their standard. Once again this is an extremely problematic, (at least historically problematic) publication that sexualizes people, and still looks for “pretty faces” on average or proportionally curvy plus sized bodies when they do feature them.
The most “conventionally beautiful” woman of recent time that you haven’t heard much from in a very long time (Angelina Jolie) , because she a humanitarian who literally devotes her life to important causes. She could’ve just rode the beauty thing forever but she didn’t. There are also average looking people with “pretty” faces working for humanitarian organizations, losing followers for speaking up about Sudan, Gaza, DRC. News articles and journalists from warring countries are being shadow banned. There are so many other important things to worry about than what people think about your body. Like literally, she was sponsored put up in expensive hotels given free food given free wardrobe given the glamour treatment (over and over again) and yet that’s not good enough?
So now we’ve seen SNL featured on a magazine for drastically losing weight, convincing people that she did it in a healthy way, NOW then we’re in the “I look like everybody so should be featured everywhere” era. So next we will either see “ I’m becoming plus sized, and I should be featured everywhere” era or we will see the reversion back to being “healthy skinny” that “deserves to be on every cover.”
Well said 👏🏻
Meanwhile she's in LA for no reason and super quiet. How many people realize she's likely getting some kind of work done.
Good call but would she risk that when she has the graduations this week?
Maybe just filler/ medical facial/ etc
She may not have turned the comments off but she sure did monitor and delete any she didn’t like.
This might be next level but I’m starting to wonder if she doesn’t plant some negativity in her own posts because she needs it to keep being relevant
I wouldn’t put it past the woman who buys hundreds (thousands? Idk I don’t watch the numbers closely) of bot followers every week.
She trolls herself, just like Alicia Mccarvell
This is 100% accurate!!
She has no problem having other pages shut down their comment sections for her though 😬
This too! 🤦🏻♀️
Canadian model lol
Is the Canadian model in the room with us?
omg I just died laughing 😂
Canadian model? Where?
No but she just deleted all the comments if they weren’t praising her ugh
"she didn't care"......enter in Reddit ban. Okay Jan
She cared that we put the puzzle pieces together and knew her spot on that runway was bought and paid for by her good friend Joanna with the Knix sponsorship and the launch of her bathing suit line. She cared that we knew the whole just got a phone call the week before story - was a lie.
Hilarious idea that backlash only comes from trolls 😂 and also hilarious that she pretends her message is for other people! No! It's for her own ego and nothing more.. what a fraud.
TBP comments are offensive to small-sized people. I HATE how obsessed she is with sizes! 😡 She's not helping anyone.
The thing I can’t understand is why people can’t see she highlights any negative comments to keep her in business. She probably got 50 to 100 positive comments for every one negative comment but that’s not what she talks about. She has to make herself a victim, say people are trolling her and her body because it’s how she makes her living. If there is societal don neutrality then Sarah Nicole Landry is out of work and showing her body is her only skill. It’s the same reason why she’s always talking about her insecurities and pushing them onto her followers.
👏
I was right!
"Most of it came within". Further proving that nobody is body shaming her, but herself. YET, she will blame it on "trolls" for content and attention. SHE is the one obsessed with her weight. Nobody else. Pick a lane.
