I went into this highly skeptical. I’ve probably at some point made a derogatory comment about Gwyneth Paltrow. Now I’m wondering if we should all be steaming our vaginas.
Edit: You guys are a hoot. Thanks to those who saw my point. If you didn’t, then that’s cool too. I’ll check back later.
Meh, host lost it after people found out he was dating a porn star… real classy.
What’s wrong with dating a porn star?
Nothing, thats my point that he’s a jackass for dumping her when their relationship went public
Disappointed in Hot Ones for hosting this psycho
Psycho? Really? Isn’t that a little harsh my friend?
Edit: Don’t downvote me. Use your words! I’m curious.
Edit #2: OK it’s on me. Saying “Don’t downvote me” is like wearing a “kick me” sign. I don’t care about the karma. I’d prefer comments. Or downvote and then comment. 😆
Not harsh enough. I originally called her something different but wasn’t sure if I was breaking any rules and didn’t want to get banned.
Yes yes it’s snake oil, obviously. But why go after her? People have been selling snake oil for a bajillion years.
LMAO WTF is wrong with you. People have murdered each other for a bajillion years too, I guess that means you’re okay with them?
I’m not a fan of Paltro, but… Really?
Do you honestly expect a YouTube channel that makes mid to moderately famous people eat spicy food to be a paragon of journalistic integrity? That’s just silly.
Also, yes she is parody of herself, but personally I reserve that level of vitriol for the Bezeoss and Rumsfelds of the world.
Scamming people who need real medical help into thinking bullshit products will cure them of issues, when in reality they could even cause them harm, is definitely deserving of vitriol.
Hot Ones used to have interesting guests and interesting, deep dive, questions. This season really feels like it jumped the shark. Just PR for people who don’t need it or deserve it.
Interesting how the reaction is split so far. It occurs to me that lots of celebrities have sold sketchy shit, but female celebrities get grief over it. Did Matt Damon get cancelled over his crypto Superbowl ad? Food for thought, guys.
You’ve just tapped into the lemmyverse hatred hive mind. It’s easy to do. Other than a vagina candle I don’t know a whole lot about her. Hating someone for being a hustler and making $$$ is wild.
My man/woman/person! 🫸🫷

Dr. Oz seems like a great example in line with her. They both made bogus claims about snake oil products that don’t provide the benefits claimed.

Damon did an ad as a spokesperson. Crypto is inherently risky; it’s a currency based on nothing that people just made up. Unless I’m missing something, I don’t even know how they’re comparable.
I strongly dislike Matt Damon now, so for me, this has nothing to do with gender.
I’m sure that’s true. Can you see my point, though? How’d Gwyneth Paltrow get to be Super Hitler? 😆
Why even have her on hot wings? She doesn’t act, is barely in the Hollywood/pop culture landscape and now runs a company selling bullshit to people. Is old mate that hard up for people to go on the show?
On hot wings? Are you 65 years old by chance?
Old for mistyping wings instead of ones. Not old, replying to a two day old post. Totally checks out.
What? Only old people reply to old posts? You have absolutely no logic. I was already in here when it was first posted. I always come back to these buzzword hive mind lemmy hatred posts to observe the ignorance. Did you forget the E in CTE in your username?
Oof what a retort. What? Only old people misspell things? I’ve been on reddit for longer than I care to admit and almost never has anyone replied after 24 hours. That and you opening with an age based sting just led me to guess you were projecting. The username zinger certainly didn’t help either.
Sure, but everybody is hustling somebody. That’s the world we live in. What about her hustle makes her worse than others?
No, not everyone is hustling someone. What a wrong, depressing view of the world. I don’t think even the majority are.
Not saying it’s right. Just asking how it makes her Space Hitler.
everybody is hustling somebody
Sounds like an excuse for acting like an asshole.
Admitting you have a problem is the first step. 👍
