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!

#news I think The Birds Papaya, a cast member of Traitors Canada, may have lied about not using filters and Photoshop. Look at her #Traitors photo from today. Compare today's image with images ThebirdsPapaya posted over the past few years. (The images are at the bottom of this comment.) Her entire facial structure is different. Look at the eyes and the brow placement. Her head shape!! My phone only makes these changes when a beauty filter is on. No matter the angle, the lens or the makeup, I can't get my eyes, brow or jawline to change shape this dramatically. Did this body-positivity, "authentic" influencer lie about not filtering? /s I wonder why the women in Canadian media positions didn't speak out about this filtering when they had their "real women" conversations on morning shows and in magazines. What if these body-positive, "authentic" women also filter? For those who are new here, TheBirdsPapaya is an influencer who uses @thebirdspapaya as her handle. She's also known as Sarah Nicole Landry. I feel very let down by a woman who claimed to be a warrior for all women. She was supposed to be fighting against people who manipulate their appearance with beauty filters, Botox and fillers. She stated in many publications that she stopped using filters and filler in 2018.
If people can’t see it now then they’re never going to acknowledging this woman is addicted to filters and doesn’t like the way she looks irl - she doesn’t even share a passing resemblance to many of the shots you attached. She creates an entirely different face for herself and gets on her IG and tells everyone to choose joy. Thanks for including the pics of one of her co-conspirators. It’s quite the cone of silence that surrounds and protects this Bird and I’ve ever understood why.
Her husband or parents should be getting her a mental health assessment. She's not right in the head.
I’d give anything to know what Shane really thinks of her and all her lies because he can’t be blind to it that’s for sure.
Yes! I don’t think the hypnotherapy did much! 😆 Unfortunately, in Canada, someone has to agree to be assessed; unless something very major happens and they get a 72-hour order
This post should be on reddit too. So good. Shes cooked.
One great thing about lemmy is that we show her stupid face!
Her short bulge-y forehead, small eyes and protruding lips - what does she actually look like?! I’d love to see her IRL.
Her forehead is sooo buldgey
Fucken fraud.
Her blurry filtered chin
This is amazing. How does she have everyone protecting her, it makes me sick because we CANT be the only ones who see it but nobody else speaks up. Guess they don’t want their lies exposed either.
Imagine making yourself look like some kind of vintage hobgoblin ghost ON PURPOSE! 😆! Lightbulb headed, googly-eyed, weak chinned weirdo is certainly a choice.
Bwhahah
