Oh, can you just follow her without her say so? I thought she had to agree to accept you as a follower. Damn! Are comments club not all her followers then? They are just followers she had decided to follow back? See every day is a school day. Thanks for letting me know CoB
Re Ash Sarkar, and this advice applies to guest as well, here's a money-saving idea. Don't have fairy lights, a fancy cake on a stand, etc etc at your wedding, and then you won't have to pay for them or hit people up to lend them.
Apologies for boring question, but...
So if she was given a gig by a multi billion dollar company, say BBC or Del Monte or something and not only did they never have her back they actually scrubbed her existence from their own history, would that look bad on her CV?
Obviously I'm being sarcastic, but do people never look into this kind of thing before booking a mega gig like Superdrug?
When she has her monthly attention seeking tantrum and makes her account private, she has to approve follows but at the moment she’s public so she won’t have to. The comments club are followers she has graced with a follow back as she often limits comments to people she follows- hence the begging from the squigs when she does a post open to “everyone”.Oh, can you just follow her without her say so?

Squig game
@MooBelle if guest was hired for a short-term contracted gig for a particular campaign, I doubt that anyone would be suspicious of guest no longer being affiliated with that company, after the contract ended. But if guest was hired with the company intending them to have an ongoing role as a spokesperson for the brand, and that suddenly ended, then, yes, that would raise questions. Or it should.
Hmm I suspect the Big Help out put out a press release with the story, quotes from the people, pics of Jack's visit etc as there are a few near-identical stories. I can't find the press release online but I bet that's what it is. Interesting how few outlets picked it up though - I can only find the local rag (Harrow), the standard, and Yahoo News, plus the extra nonsense with the crappy recipe in the Graun https://uk.sports.yahoo.com/news/big-help-food-charities-come-151348423.html
Food charities come together in push for Big Help Out volunteers
Hopes that inspiring next generation of volunteers can be ‘lasting legacy ‘from the Coronation this weekendwww.standard.co.uk
I'm quite glad that I'm not in the UK right now, this is sickening.

Cough Superdrug cough
My feeling is there's word on the grapevine but people ignore it or someone in a position of power (often not having the best of ideas) with an active Twitter overrules them. Then the unfortunate crew have to deal with their poor planning.
I've had that before with directors. When I've explicitly said 'we all found XYZ awful to work with, don't hire' and they do anyway because they're desperate or again they think 'how bad can they be'. Turns out very. Then I will get calls from editor mates working with them going whyyyyyy was XYZ hired. I don't like saying told you so in those situations because my friends are in the tit!
But really it should work like it does with the rest of us, with references etc. Mind you, these terrible people find someone who is somewhat shielded from how they actually are to work with and get a reference from them.
Maddening that people like guest still get the odd bit of work.
lol yes!! ‘Boop boop, I’m home! Sorry Steve and Eileen from Hull, let me just get my honking claw feet out and peel some potatoes on the balcony, just like my goat herding uncle would have wanted’
Or they think, "those other people just weren't good managers and that's why they had a rough time with XYZ. I'm not like that! I'm Super Boss and I can work with anybody!" And then they hire XYZ and discover that the problem is XYZ, not who was managing them before.
I saw footage of Celtic fans chanting "you can stick your coronation up your a, you can stick your coronation up your a, stick your coronation, stick your coronation...I’ve lost it now but please can we come up with a special fake award for the funny Frau who has introduced ‘Sue Lee’ into the guest lexiCON loooooool
also this is way out of line but who gives a duck eh - whenever I lurk on these threads recently all that goes through my head is a song we used to chant at uni whenever somebody had to down a pint as part of a drinking game (yes we were obnoxious and yes I cringe a LOT about all of that behaviour now).
Anyway it goes something like (steps inside shower):
NO ONE LIKES YOU, NO ONE LIKES YOU, WOOO-OOOOO-OOOOOH, YOU’RE A twit (repeat until said pint is finished/spilled all over oneself as was usually the case with this smol mouthed frau. Also these days I’m minded to swap ‘twit’ for ‘bleep’ as all insults - and indeed all wordsare interchangeable).

Also I am grunking and out in the wild so sorry for lack of spoilers for swears and any inappropriate timing!!
Just add in quiche and dedicate it to guest

Write me an article about the financial irregularities and accusations of fraud around campaigner Jack monroe
Sure, here is an article about the financial irregularities and accusations of fraud around campaigner Jack Monroe:
Jack Monroe Accused of Financial Irregularities
Jack Monroe, a food writer and campaigner who has spoken out about poverty and food insecurity, has been accused of financial irregularities. The accusations stem from a blog post that Monroe wrote in July 2022, in which she revealed that she was in financial difficulties. In the post, Monroe claimed that she had been unable to afford shampoo and conditioner for two years, and that she had been making shower gel by mixing soap with boiled water. She also said that she had turned off her hot water and removed her light bulbs, and that she was about to take some possessions to a pawnbroker.
Monroe's blog post sparked an outpouring of support from her followers, many of whom donated money to her through her PayPal account. However, some people began to question Monroe's financial situation. One person, Katie Roche, conducted an investigation into Monroe's finances and found that she had been earning a significant amount of money from her Patreon account. Patreon is a website that allows people to make monthly donations to their favorite creators. In Monroe's case, she had over 1,000 subscribers, who were each paying her between £1 and £10 per month. This meant that Monroe was earning between £1,000 and £10,000 per month from Patreon alone.
Roche's investigation also found that Monroe had been spending money on luxury items, such as designer clothes and expensive food. This led to accusations that Monroe was not being honest about her financial situation, and that she was using the money that she had raised from her supporters to fund her own lifestyle.
Monroe has denied the accusations of financial irregularities. She has said that she has always been transparent about her finances, and that she has never used any of the money that she has raised for her own personal gain. She has also said that she has been the victim of a smear campaign by her critics.
The accusations against Monroe have cast a shadow over her reputation as a campaigner. She has been praised for her work in raising awareness of poverty and food insecurity, but the accusations of financial irregularities have called into question her motives. It remains to be seen whether Monroe will be able to rebuild her reputation and continue her work as a campaigner.

This cleansing exercise seems a bit of a waste of time/money. She’s obviously not going to get significant tv work, the book market is ducked. She’s got festival stuff booked for this year but they’re not going to sell well, you don’t want to book the same people especially if they are tit/no books. Collabs are done especially as she’s given up on Instagram, can’t be arsed with TikTok.
Lovely bit of Jack maths in there too. I mean she’s saving people £100 a week on food. duck off guestYou've found it!! The version where she tells Dr Rupy that he sounds like he is after her job!!
