| Oh geez, I finally watched it. I generally do t care for her, because she seems so dang phony and self-important, but this didn’t actually bother me at all. I found it sweet, and genuine and fun. She seemed like a real human, for a change. |
Yeah, a cheery act. Otherwise she would not have let the video out of her clutches. So sad, fake princess. |
One thing that can bring both sides together. |
| Saw some post on Reddit that was basically like only black/biracial celebrities get accused of faking their pregnancies. Examples were Meghan Markle, Serena Williams, Beyonce, and Michelle Obama. |
Do you realize how unhinged you sound? |
What about Sarah Palin and Katie Holmes? Back on topic, my guess is H&M’s new PR team combed through videos looking for something they could release to garner attention and make them look like they’re in love. |
DP. Race and ethnicity are not the same thing. It is not unfair to say that MM is more than half-White. That doesn’t make her “less Black”. A lot of older people in my family have 60-75% European ancestry, grew up under Jim Crow, attended HBCUs, fought in the Civil Rights movement, and are unapologetically Black. |

The parallelism between MAGA and Markle-haters is striking.
I am not even talking about her haters being conservative (because I don’t think that’s a factor for the most part), but it’s the cult-like irrationality. It’s the hypocrisy and blind loyalty to hating her. It’s the rabid behavior. If you’re reading this as a Markle hater, I ask that you take two minutes to self reflect. [NP] |
Sarah Palin |
Sorry I agree with the thread above. MM unites republicans and democrats in their dislike. Hate is a strong word. She triggers me, because I can see my sister-in-law doing so many things from blaming to being fake sweet to spreading false stories. The dance video itself is pretty inoffensive. However, if my sister-in-law did it, it would be for attention-getting purposes, and I would mute it. |
I am just surprised that she didn't have to run to pee when she did that drop bounce thing with her knees apart. |
As opposed to other celebrities, who do not exhibit attention-seeking?
|
NP. This is weird and unintentionally a good example of what precisely what the other PP is talking about. I suspect that the reason there is so much crossover between MAGA and the Markle-haters is that it’s an easy transfer of core behaviors that are similar. Essentially it’s an extension of MAGA. |
Nah. Lots of celebrities do stuff. Meghan is the only one whose IL relationship is her central story and so invites emotional transfer. |
Fair, but Meghan doesn’t have much…. Talent to me. It is like she is seeking a title in most talented at marketing liberal causes culture in the POC SAHM with preschoolers category. And yes, I purposefully made that clunky because she has rebranded herself so many times, it is hard to know who she is. I know that she is good at calligraphy and being at the top of the good cause pyramid. The dance video is fine- good for her. I just don’t get the rest of her. |
