TLDR from last thread, please add anything I missed:
- Niomi traveled home from London (a Covid hotspot where the new strain was detected) just before London went into Tier 4, even though travel between cities was still not allowed under Tier 3 and she had been bubbling with multiple people in London (Charlotte, Sarah Ann, possible hookups). She also didn’t isolate when she got to Sussex, potentially exposing innocent people to the new strain
- She also posted a sustainable wrapping video with an undisclosed ad for a £800 vegan leather bag. The wrapping suggestions were actually quite unsustainable (she bought holly/decorations/cloth and used disposable tape, when she could have used newspaper or gift bags from previous seasons), and vegan leather is not necessarily more sustainable than real leather since it contains plastic.
- The above resulted in some genuine criticism from her usual robot followers, telling her she shouldn’t have broken the rules and gloated about how lucky she was to have gotten to see her family for Christmas while others are forced to be alone. She also received some criticism for advertising a luxury bag to followers who may have lost jobs this year and be in financial hardship, as well as for advertising a vegan bag when she just bought a leather bag from Mulberry.
- The backlash was so much that she turned off comments on her video announcing she was home for Christmas and she deleted constructive criticism from her Instagram comments, none of which were hateful or rude in any way.
- Vlogmas absolutely flopped this year, she made 8 videos in the whole month, and only a couple were actual vlogs.
- She seems to be laying low after the backlash she received, sticking to posting thirst traps on Instagram. Comments seem to be back to usual robotic adoring fans.
- Edit: wanted to add that Tattle may have some imposters in our midst, we’ve seen an influx of Niomi defenders (for things that are indefensible like traveling a bunch during Covid). Be on the lookout
