@Denise I was one of her higher tier contributers. She responded occasionally but not consistently. But it amazed me that some of the comments (often quite inane) elicit lots of likes. Mine rarely did, so I don't know how it works. I think most of K's fans are American so I wondered if they were all friends and 'liked' one another's comments. I don't lose sleep over it but I didn't quite get how some people who write such daft stuff gets lots of likes and someone who tries to make a constructive contribution doesn't get any. I wasn't saying anything inflammatory so I can't imagine I was filtered, but this whole YouTube world is a bit of a mystery to me. It really doesn't matter. My arm wasn't twisted to give a contribution and I didn't bankrupt myself in the process, and when I decided it may not be a worthy cause, I stopped.Interesting to hear from the former patrons! I had noticed Kylie likes a bunch of comments, not all, and only the same few people tend to get responses. I had assumed they were higher tier contributers.
Well, when she first found our thread back in late March/April she did seem to be wildly responding to more comments than usual. Def trying to push her narrative that we were a lying troll groupand keep her control.
They could have been friends, or perhaps just as silly and superficial as the people that left such comments. The people who write their life stories boggle my mind. Last night I went down the rabbit hole....lol@Denise I was one of her higher tier contributers. She responded occasionally but not consistently.

It doesn’t sound Australian, for me it just sounds like how some people, myself included, over enunciate when they start teaching eflI could be wrong, but isn't that kind of how Australians pronounce the word idea?
I think maybe it sounds strange to you bc over time she's hidden her Australian accent more and more
You can hear it in this video, more so than now at least. Like at 7:30. That does not sound anything like the whispering ah si Kylie we hear today.
She definitely does hide finances, and it's now becoming clear that she always has. The kitchen thing still bothers me. Bompani gifted her the beautiful fridge and oven (and burner, right?), but she doesn't disclose that in the video. Not only does she not disclose that - she then goes on about how she doesn't have enough money for tiles, for X Y Z. I remember the first time I watched it when it came out and I was so confused how she had gotten that beautiful fridge and oven if she didn't have the money for tiles!
So glad I found you guys to decode all her deception. I used to look up to her because I wanted to move to Europe (Italy specifically) as an expat female, and I never understood how she made it work. I just feel disappointed in this fake fantasy she's showing off. The frustration of not understanding her for so many years is finally all adding up.
What is yoked?? That first comment is how I imagine a lot of her continuing supporters tbh. wonder how they feels about kylies best friend being gay.They could have been friends, or perhaps just as silly and superficial as the people that left such comments.

I was embarrassed to ask about yoked because I thought I just didn't know!It doesn’t sound Australian, for me it just sounds like how some people, myself included, over enunciate when they start teaching efl

the next two are really bizarre, is the second saying Tuscan men are bad?!
@emm ... a yoke is like a wooden crosspiece that is placed across the necks of two animals so they can plough a field in unison. A lot of Kylie's fans have 'got religion' and being equally yoked is, very simplistically stated, a biblical reference and metaphor for two people coming to a marriage being equal. You couldn't yoke an Ox with a chihuahua for instance (am being facetious and making a ridiculous comparison here).

I should be embarassed if it is a real word I teach EnglishI was embarrassed to ask about yoked because I thought I just didn't know!Glad to have company lol. Maybe like...in tune/connected? I wonder if it is a literal translation from another language?
And yes to me it seemed to say Tuscan men are bad, lol.
wow interesting, every day is a school day! had never heard anything remotely like this (and I went to christian school for most of my education@emm ... a yoke is like a wooden crosspiece that is placed across the necks of two animals so they can plough a field in unison.

In the Kylie/Guido match ... are they both oxen, or is one an ox and t'other a chihuahua or maybe a different creature?
Here is a Medieval illumination which includes some yoked oxen https://www.sciencephoto.com/media/524862/view/medieval-ploughing-luttrell-psalter
Australians don’t pronounce ‘idea’ with this extra rr ( more classic Aus would be io- deyahI could be wrong, but isn't that kind of how Australians pronounce the word idea?

I remember that post! She clearly just did this to make herself seem so amazing with the effort it takes to order a simple coffee, I speak Italian now but I remember when I first moved there and could say probably a handful of phrases and people were always so accomodating and helpful regardless, more so than they would be in the UK in a similar situation imo.This was one of my first comments to KyLIE on “How to Order Coffee in Italy”
Oh my goodness ! Just to order a coffee ?
First of all, if you are expecting Italians to be polite and to have manners, you will be sorely disappointed. However, they are generally friendly and helpful, so if you want a coffee, they will understand if you do your best, without a course in Italian grammar.
Italy is to relax, not to stress yourself out !
The cafe shown, Gigli, is the most expensive tourist cafe in Florence; €8 for a tea and the menu is in English !
“The experience of ordering coffee in Italy is not for the easily intimidated.”
Sorry; just relax, you’ll get your coffee with a little patience and a smile. As far as reserving your pastry a day in advance, you must be kidding !
What you show is Italy for tourists and the most expensive at that.
I go to bars, restaurants, grocery stores, etc. and get along just fine with a little Italian, my English and an open attitude. This is the joy of Italy
Yes, yoked is two animals locked together to do hard labour; NOT my idea of a good marriage !They could have been friends, or perhaps just as silly and superficial as the people that left such comments.

yeah it sounds like a very backward vision of marriage, imagine kylie doing hard labourYes, yoked is two animals locked together to do hard labour; NOT my idea of a good marriage !
I think you’ve run into some Born Again Evangecals here; I would stay clear ! You’ll get as much empathy and reason as you would from a Trump supporter. In fact, they are often one and the same.
KyLIE shares this in common in that she too promotes the BIG LIE. There’s money in it !
@Jerry, I think a lot of KyLIE's fans are born-again Evangelicals. Of course, each to his/her own, but this way of thinking isn't to my personal taste. I was raised by Welsh Baptists, long sermons, and fire and brimstone. It put me off God.Yes, yoked is two animals locked together to do hard labour; NOT my idea of a good marriage !

I hadn't heard of it either! But now it makes a lot of sense. Thanks! @PlinyinTorquayI should be embarassed if it is a real word I teach EnglishI wondered if it was a typo but had no idea what it could be
wow interesting, every day is a school day! had never heard anything remotely like this (and I went to christian school for most of my education)
By looking at her comments, I also get the impression that many of her fans are religious. It also wouldn't surprise me if many of her fans are into the "tradwife" movement@Jerry, I think a lot of KyLIE's fans are born-again Evangelicals.

All of Kylie’s “interviews“ are really bad @emm she never listens, she doesn’t seem to be prepared or have interesting questions ready, she is not a good journalist and that’s because she is not a journalist....The over-familiarity when she meets the poor souls that have to put with the manic laughter and hyped enthusiasm while she films them, is too much and part of the narcissistic cycle. One feels that once the camera has stopped rolling she will never see or think of these people again...I'm bored and watching her Conversation in Kenya video, she always does this insane ott thing when meeting anyone, as if they are best friends having met 2 minutes ago, like a kind of platonic lovebombing. Yet then when she is having a serious conversation with this woman she sounds really uninterested with just very non committal "ah yeh?" replies, only any kind of enthusiasm or emotion when she is dominating the conversation.
Her accent when talking to people in this video is so unbelievably patronising, she is speaking as if talking to a 3 year old or someone who speaks very little english which is not the case
The tears when talking to that woman in the kenya video, god knows what she thinks, this priveledged woman coming in and crying because she will "miss her so much" while this poor woman has been talking about not feeling safe to be outside after 6pm and the difficulties of being a single mother with children reliant on herAll of Kylie’s “interviews“ are really bad @emm she never listens, she doesn’t seem to be prepared or have interesting questions ready, she is not a good journalist and that’s because she is not a journalist....The over-familiarity when she meets the poor souls that have to put with the manic laughter and hyped enthusiasm while she films them, is too much and part of the narcissistic cycle.
