What irritates me is not that she won’t admit outright she was rubbish (I mean, who would?), but that she keeps repeating this line, which she started iterating when she was in the thick of it and wasn’t getting cast, about how difficult and how much of a hustle it is, as though that’s why she couldn’t make it. Don’t get me wrong, it absolutely is prohibitively difficult to make it as an actor, but we all know that is not, actually, the primary reason why she didn’t make it. It’s incredibly disingenuous for her to have ever presented herself as a struggling aspiring actor. Unless I missed something, she has never, ever acknowledged the incredible leg up she had over actual struggling aspiring actors having to ‘hustle’ out there—the money to buy parts, the connections, the ‘fame’ to get stunt-cast as a lead in the play. In fact, when she was getting panned in ‘Confidence’, she had the gall to make out that it was because of who she is (not classically trained), as though she was not, in fact, cast in the first place simply for who she is. She can ignore as much as she wants to how rubbish she was, but it irritates the flake out of me when she pretends to have been just another struggling actor, who couldn’t make it because of ‘how the industry is.’
It's the continued lack of honesty for me. Like there's zero shame in saying "I've had a baby and realized that I'd rather be with my son than in the labor market."Plenty of women do it and it's as valid an opinion as the opposite. But aside from a jokey admission that her IMDB page wasn't great, there's no recognition of "I was no good at it so I was never going to amount to much and I'd rather not waste time I could spend with my son in silly plays where I have flakes up me fanny." Or something like that. Instead she keeps lying about her career now inflating her producer role and talking about writing and producing a short film and having loads of meetings with charities. Like who would meet with her and why? Who outside of Tattle even knows what a Tanya Burr is?
the way Jim went to EVERY SINGLE ONE of her Confidence shows freaked me out - he even went to the q&a
Agreed. Her smiley, warm persona suits her much better than her cool, smelling shit persona.
I remember someone commenting “where’s the K9?”This reminded me of when Jim and Tanya blocked words dog & Martha, so people started commenting “where’s the hound?”. Just made me laugh remembering that
' and then putting his arm round her and leading her away
This is the type of spiteful attitude I’ve got too when it comes to JimGuys am I okay? Because a part of me wants her to succeed just so Jim could be mad
For most people yes!

I hate that they have done this to their children. Sarah did that article about feeling it was her duty to share photos/info about the children to show empathy with other mums or some such bullshit. But it's obvious they've got bugger all going on in their lives so use the children as content.
