I always thought it strange that she worked for Nuts magazine. It was a tacky competitor to Zoo magazine, and both posted countless photos of topless and scantily-clad ‘babes’ (that was pretty much ALL they did) before they - thankfully - closed. For a self-proclaimed feminist, it jarred somewhat.

I understand she was responsible for Nuts’ social media content during her stint there. I’d love to see that account now! 🤔

She was there for the shortest time until she took a few months off sick to travel abroad to meet Greg. She was so proud telling that story, so happy to have left get employer in the lurch and lied to them.

Oh, of course. I suppose, you’ve seen one pair of boobs, you’ve seen ‘em all...

It was a rather short-lived journalist career, it seems. I was going to say something about ‘over-egging the pudding’ on her writing career but I don’t want people thinking I only have egg-based jokes up my sleeve.

I really respect the posts you have made in this discussion, you have raised some interesting points. I really think that your point about Susie‘s instinct to do nothing is particularly of interest. (This is referring to the situation discussed about, not the tweets)

I don’t think Susie is alone in this instinct. There are multiple posts across the website where people have contacted influencers about posts they have made and the general response is block/delete. There appears to be an arrogance level based on followers that means these influencers are untouchable or unquestionable.

Pictures of children naked in the bath are posted regularly if questioned...block/delete.
One influencers children were apparently found on a porn site in their swimming costumes, someone contacted them...guess what? Block/delete and then she posted pictures that day in their swim suits.

There is an influencer accepting paypal payments that she claims she is using to fund work with DV victims, people have asked for a newsletter or information about where that money they have given goes...guess what...block/delete.

I agree with your comments earlier on about cancel culture, people do make mistakes and conversations about changing behaviour should happen, I understand your link to the olden days about people being put in the stocks and mocked however there are very few influencers who will ever accept they make mistakes.

They seem to be living on a level of self importance, where they can do no wrong and will be fluffed up their followers if any one dares question their behaviour. That can’t be good for society as a whole. A lot of people come to tattle who were originally fans of the people they now discuss, because when they questioned any behaviour they got deleted and then realised through this site they weren’t alone.

As soon as anyone on Social Media is questioned they simplify it down to ‘troll’.

There needs to be an understanding that asking questions about stories, posts, advice shared, adverts etc, questions that might be uncomfortable aren’t trolling. This discussion just isn’t happening in Instagram, actually it might be there probably are a small number of influencers who will have it but I just haven’t seem it.

I think the simplicity of the situation at the moment is you are either a fan or a troll has led to the cancel culture being more prominent. I should be able to follow someone on Instagram and ask them a question without being deleted, in the same way that they should be able to make a mistake without worrying about instant cancellation.

This leads to influencers who are nervous about being caught out. There is almost an unhealthy level of emotion on each side, and it does feel like sides when really there should be discussion happening somewhere in the middle.

I hope this makes sense and is obviously a wider discussion that just SV, I’d be interested in what you think.

*Id also be interested in what any of the 2170 guests think...I reckon there are a few influencers hiding in that number. You can stay anonymous but are welcome to join the debate.

Comment on Wee Slice’s Insta stories. I think it might have been someone on here that sent her a message to question her liking Susie’s initial post?..

Surprised Wee Slice didn't lay low. She had her own racism/cultural appropriation issue when she wrapped a dress around her head. 2019??

I’ve found Alison to be fairly unapologetic in her own way too. A lot of the mark your Ad as an actual Ad hasn’t been adhered to that well by her at times and she hasn’t seemed to care about feedback that isn’t positive regarding that. It really switched me off. If I can flick past an obvious ad in a magazine at least extend the same courtesy to your followers.

Just remembered their first son has the middle name ‘Nugget’. Now, I’m no Hetty Wainthrop but I’m going to stick my neck out and say, given what we know about how Greg likes to occupy himself, that was his idea.

Could’ve been worse. Could’ve been Goujon.

Sorry to compare this to other influencers and I absolutely condemn what MOD said but this is way way worse. I don’t care if she’s apologised. This wasn’t when she was a teenager. She was a fully grown woman who said multiple racist and offensive things.

She was the first to tear down MOD. Why isn’t she being pulled up by all the other ‘influencers’?

What did she say about MOD? Can’t find it on here
