Since we are going down memory lane on “how did all this happen?”...
Here is Minky’s origin story for those who missed it. Just one example of how it all came to be. Photos below.
She never gave credit to CleanQueen25, though she did share her account in early days when she was growing her account off the back of more popular ones.
When she was called out for the Minky thing here before her first book came out (which could have had the working title “Lies and Manipulations Explained”...) she included a blurb in her book about how she got the idea from someone else. Yet still didn’t credit CleanQueen25 by name. And imo she only addressed it because the evidence remained on CleanQueen25’s page which she couldn’t scrub clean and delete to save face. Much like the “I’m never changing my kitchen” post that has conveniently disappeared off her own grid.
This is just one small example of how it all came to be. We have since seen other instances of her taking ideas and profiting off them. I would say fair play, but then it’s not is it? Not when you don’t credit your sources. When you brush other people under the rug to market yourself as a cleaning guru.
Her first book seems nothing more than an exercise in damage limitation. At the time before her book came out everyone believed the narrative of her being “just” a hairdresser because she had never mentioned her sales past. Which is fine. Until Tattlers found her LinkedIn profile which painted another entirely different story than the one she was telling/selling. Soon after came the explanation. Anyone else recall the passive-aggressive story saying “So what I was in sales? I’m not hiding anything! It’s all in my book.”
Why so defensive? I believe that’s when the neck clawing really began.
