Jack Monroe #551 Careless Wispa

[hiyaaaacath]

I like to imagine the scene played out when the evil photographers / journos somehow convinced guest to pose a little bit nude in a bath full of money…

Evil media types “so, we’ve got this great angle yeh, it’s you…semi nude and get this…you’re in a bath full of cash, smirking”

Guest “Won’t that look kind of insane, greedy, stupid, rude, smug, devious, grabby, deviant, perverse, arrogant, narcissistic and totally bleeping mental given the fact that pretty much the whole of the internet has recently realised I’m a grifting, thieving, no good chancer who parts the poor from their cash and the entire purpose of this interview was to somehow recover from that and save my flabby, floundering joke of a career?”

Evil media types “as mentioned…you’d be semi nude…”

Guest “….’ere hold me knickers”

FIN

And she does sultry semi-nude so well…

The bath pic is one of my favourites. When you think of a woman in a bath, you imagine images like this. They could have totally put Jack in a pose like this, exuding femininity, warmth, relaxation. Just replace the water with pennies.

Instead they made her lie back with her arms and legs out like a simpleton and her head back surrounded by pennies. The overall effect I got was ‘this woman is a joke-a talentless, cheap chancer. Enjoy what a head we’ve made her look’.

Can someone point me to the start of this chaos please?

Hadn't thought of it before but you're absolutely right. Artistic choices were made.

I don't understand why the legs are akimbo.

I don't understand why the legs are akimbo.

It was supposed to be an homage to Annie Liebowitz’s iconic portrait of Whoopi Goldberg. The pennies were a sly artistic decision, the irony of which went completely over the smol pixie’s head.

The whole interview and photoshoot almost feel like they were set up to finish her career off.

Game, set and snatch.

The Grauniad in full ‘Red Wedding’ mode. Couldn’t happen to a nicer bleep.

And it worked! Well sort of. The credit must still go to guest

Lying in the bath of money and talking about what she spent the money on in the article was such bad taste. I can't believe her and her agent were ok with it when they saw it all put together.

She was so thrilled at getting her photo taken for the graun and simultaneously too stupid to realise the piece was a subtle hatchet job.
---
She was actually crowing about it.

CROWING.

 

[TrolleyParton]

How the not at all mighty have fallen.

To paraphrase Bono, she gave us nothing now that's all she's got.

Canal chats jacksflaps - Vlad promotes

Probably the right tool for the job of cutting guest’s flapjacks

I don't understand why the legs are akimbo.

Nobody wanted to be the one she could accuse of telling her to to keep her legs shut.

 

[Boogs]

I don't understand why the legs are akimbo.

She saw all the money in the room and it was like muscle memory.

 

[Livia Fantasy]

Set flaps to maximum
