I have listened to Jo’s radio show for years, on and off. But not when my OH was around, he could not abide her. When she said she was starting a blog I was interested as there aren’t that many women of her age doing them. Although she has always been a show off, she was amusing, and her content was not just about clothes and how she looks. There were cultural things. I know covid has put the kibosh on a lot of her normal content, but even before covid she started to piss me off.
The blatant pushing of stuff, the pleading poverty, the name dropping, the vanity. In the last year I have found her insufferable. I don’t subscribe anymore but dip in every now and then. I no longer listen to her radio show. She is the epitome of those BBC types who think that London is the centre of the universe. I was brought up in central London, lived there most of my life (but not now) and she winds me up with her “this is why we live in London” and being disparaging about other places. I have left a few caustic comments on her comments about her disingenuousness about being poor whilst spending hundreds of pounds on clothes.
She is a blagger, not a blogger, and not a very good one. I do not believe most of what she says, she talks utter tripe at time. If I see her up on the roof kicking up her legs one more time like a 1970s dolly bird ......I cringe for her, she just looks daft.
She looks absolutely dreadful at the moment. She has aged so much in a year, it is quite marked. She has lost loads of weight from her face. She looks frail, and the oversized clothes are not helping. She could be quite an inspirational person to follow, woman of a certain age, engaged in life, the arts, books, and fashion but she is just a vain person now who only cares about her neck, her hair, the freebies she gets. Basically she is just your average vlogger, just an older one.
I think her radio team suffer her because she is “the talent”. Interesting to read about her adding false praise about herself in emails and reading them out. I think she is terrified she will be let go. Eddie Nestor gives off the same vibes about that.
I am glad this thread exists. The world of influencers bothers me. The endless consumerist push. I though MAM was different, but no, same as all the others, but worse somehow because of her age. You kind of hope that when you get to your 60s there is more to you than vanity and narcissism, but it seems not.
