Retro Flame #4 Kurry to New Yark; The Great Covid Escape.

[BadaboomBadabing]

“A brand reached out to her! I’ve been testing it out before continuing the conversation! Need to test it myself to be sure” Highly doubt it It’s like when she promoted mercari, I’ve sold lots on here but in actual fact she hadn’t it was 6 items listed! Her engagement and growth is dire, A crock of bull as per usual with her! Trying to play the transparency card!

 

[not_influenced]

Not one thing that comes out of her mouth relating to brands is true!

She's the most sneeky when it comes to #ad #sp #pr and when challenged about it she says that it's not required in US and that she doesn't need to do XYZ!

And if you ask a question on why she's no longer using rimmel after her collab last year or what she's no longer wearing a certain brand or why she's selling items on depop you're blocked!

Why can she just not recognize and share that going home was a pretty selfish move and not their greatest decision. I live in the US and haven’t been home since December 2019, the Irish Community are all in this together and I will not be traveling home until Ireland is in a safer place. I’ve always liked her, but I think this is the final straw - just own it Erica, you behaved liked a 21 year old on a J1 who hasn’t seen their parents in 12 weeks. Just show an ounce of acknowledgment and what you’ve learnt and majority of people will move on.

 

[not_influenced]

She won't come on and acknowledge it!!who are we kidding!! Erika will continue to be an ostrich with her head in the sand.

The youtube video is definitely coming....when I say it's definitely coming it will be "we need to talk" or "something i need to tell you". The usually click bait. With the hidden collaboration in the text box with farfetched or some moving company or furniture place. And she will not mention coming home to ireland at all! But she'll have the views and make her money.

**Edited** spotlight so video up "I'm back in NYC". ERIKA YOURE SO bleeping PREDICTABLE

Did she say how. They got back

 

[not_influenced]

No from her "serious chat" is don't come at me if I'm out socialising things are different in nyc things are starting to reopen gyms restaurants etc. Doesn't want controversy on her channel and ppl giving out to her if she's doing things that ppl need to understand restrictions are different in each country. Also says from April 12th age 18+ can get vaccine!

Honestly. I'm speechless. Comments are the usual licks- welcome back missed your vlog. No mention of how did you get back/explanation.

Hey Erika so as you stated on your video that people are jealous you are back in New York and that you aren’t jealous of people in Australia so why would people in Ireland be jealous. To catch you up on the key difference - the Irish government advised everyone living abroad to stay away from Ireland at Christmas. They advised. Yes legally they couldn’t force people to not return but they strongly advised. You ignored it and I remember you said you contacted the airline and they said it was fine for you to travel. Of course a privately owned airline who is losing money wanted your money.

If you stayed in New York and showed lockdown life there, people would’ve respected the fact it was difficult for you and that you were doing what’s good for everyone.

just to let you know, living in Ireland we can’t travel beyond 5k. We haven’t seen our families in Ireland, in the same country. But you were able to travel from New York, and via Dublin most likely and then to Kerry. So wondering how you were able to break beyond the 5k no problem. Are we all fools in Ireland? Or maybe we just are in it together trying to get through it and it’s difficult to see you fly around and do whatever you want. It’s just the lack of respect you .

you will try to justify it over and over again. But you were not supposed to travel to Ireland in the first place. But sure, you have shown you will do what you want so that’s grand!

By the way, we aren’t jealous, we are frustrated! If all of Ireland did what you did, well who knows

Why are her hands always so orange? She's been tanning for years, can't she see how bad it looks on camera? She talks with her hands and all I see is her orange hands that constantly look dirty.

Just watched some of her vlog:-
Says they had to quarantine in another country but doesn’t say which and says she didn’t want to say anything until they were back ‘safely and tested negatively’ - how stupid does she think people are, she didn’t mention it as she knew there was a chance they’d be refused at the border, if that wasn’t the case then why not just say where they went?
Also the trying to be mindful of others but we need to understand she lives in a different country and life is getting back to normal there. Think about this Erika - no one would care about life getting back to normal in New York and you therefore carrying on as normal if you had STAYED THERE which was the government advice. It’s the fact you deliberately ignored it to go to Ireland for Christmas and then have swanned off back to New York thinking you can pull the wool over everyone’s eyes about how you got back, clearly you knew it was a dodgy risk you were taking otherwise you would be more open.

She’s so disingenuous about this, the looking up into the side of her eyes when talking is a big giveaway. She literally must think her followers are dumb to just take what she says and not question her further.
Completely shady.

 

[Emmas83]

Does she think we live in some sort of backward country uk and Ireland are also starting to open up in the next few weeks! We don’t think your a dick because you are in New York and it’s opening up we think you are a dock for traveling unnecessarily!!

 

[Hotchips]

Some epic strops and tantrums must have been thrown when she was hoping tommy would come home too and he didnt. Of course he misses his family, we all do.tommy could of course have travelled to ireland if he wanted to, noone would have stopped him but clearly he has a sensible head on him and showed some maturity and said no. Fair play tommy, stay strong and i hope you get a closet in your next apartment. You deserve it. She stayed offline so much hoping people would forget she travelled for non essential reasons. After subjecting us to the non stop borefest of rossbeigh beach, her riviting contint so far has been 2 photos of almost identical beige bedrooms, pasta with tomato sauce and pics of the bridge again from her window. Oh also loved how she said tommy enjoyed the break from the camera...you can bet your ass he did. And after spending almost 4 months at home with kaelin id have thought she might have been dying to catch up with other friends she hasnt seen....oh forgot in 7 years in NY and all the contacts and events and whatnot she has done she has not made a single american friend but no..idk weirdest people ive come across.

Just spotted she deleted a question from her youtube that was posted v late last night...its gone now. She was asked what route she flew to enter the US...gone!!

 

[I got up at 5am]

Dear Erika. Nobody is jealous of you. We are all disgusted with you. You are selfish, you and all others living abroad were advised not to travel home at Christmas but you did it anyway. Those of us who have been making sacrifices upon sacrifices since March 2020 have paid the price for your behaviour. It’s not April 8th and we are still on level 5 restrictions. Deaths, job losses, long Covid and don’t even start me on the mental health crisis this country is experiencing but hey don’t let any of that get in the way of you making it home to Kerry and sloping off back to NYC on the quiet. You will reap what you sow. I hope this is your last year of influencing. You won’t get much in the way of sympathy when you crawl back here with your tail between your legs you spoiled brat.

 

[irishgirlo]

What the hell is wrong with her....has she somehow twisted it in her head that any negative comments she's getting are regarding her being able to do things in New York, rather than that she travelled during a pandemic? And continually broke the 5km limit? And then wasn't transparent about how she got back? And don't forget, the dog somehow sitting on the plane home, rather than in the hold?

Jesus christ, she was clearly dragged up.
No amount of money can account for class.
She's actual trash, with her carry on.

 

[Julesffs]

She’s flat out blocking people and deleting comments, so only the distorted positive comments are left

 

[Peekaboo1234]

Eegit with a v big ego.
But I am waiting for the 4th of July weekend away content.

 

[Wheretonext]

She’s “trying to mindful” about how everyone is feeling because things are very different in NYC than Ireland. Pity she wasn’t so mindful when she up sticks and fecked off back to Ireland when the government asked people not to. She wasn’t worried about people’s feelings then. I messaged her back in December asking about the dog and why she ignored the advice of the government. explained I lived abroad and made the decision not to.... and she replied and told me I should be ashamed of myself

Ashamed of yourself for what?! Asking a question?!

Response to a comment on her latest video about getting back

 

[starryeyed10]

"It's possible to travel safely" - so why isn't everyone flying off on holidays??

She travelled all the way from NYC to a country where the people can't go further than 5 km.... and she thinks it's totally fine and "safe"?

She is super selfish. If everybody travelled and ignored government advice it would have been a total shitshow, even if everyone did it "safely" and "followed the rules". It's more down to how many people do it not if people follow rules or not, it's an infectious disease like hello . "Following rules" still means there could be a few hundred people sitting together on a plane or thousands in a super busy airport.

It was only "safe" for her because most other people chose not to travel. Idiot.

Hmm she's stocking rigidly to the "it's not my area of expertise" line - so are we to take it that she considers herself an expert on shopping, cooking, chic saucepan sets, fashion, style, hair, beauty, interiors, relationships, travel, walking, bridges...
It's a flawed defence but quite a convincing one from the point of view of her less cynical followers I suppose.
Shady as ever.
Edited to add, for all her talk of following the rules to the letter, didn't someone report seeing them in a shop in Kerry a few days after they arrived home? And wasn't her sister seen with her boyfriend without social distancing after he finished their alleged quarantine period and went to stay elsewhere? On a dog walk outside of their 5k?
Cos none of that is following rules to the letter is it - all sounds a bit a la carte to me.
