1 00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:05,160 Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome to Outspoken. You're dose of the hottest 2 00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:09,040 Speaker 1: influencer and pop culture news twice a week. I'm Kate Torbert, 3 00:00:09,039 --> 00:00:12,360 Speaker 1: and I'm joined by my sisters and journalists Amy and Sophie. 4 00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:15,360 Speaker 1: On today's show, Sarah's Day is in hot water over 5 00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:19,720 Speaker 1: ads complaint, Math's tone deaf nude photo scandal, and Hannah 6 00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:24,720 Speaker 1: Auvil's surprising relationship update. The first on Monday, Sarah's Day 7 00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:27,800 Speaker 1: gave birth to her second son, whose name is yet 8 00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:30,520 Speaker 1: to be revealed. And it was quite a special day, 9 00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:33,560 Speaker 1: March the fourteenth. It was also our birthday. And Amy, 10 00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:36,280 Speaker 1: I know that you had a bet going that Sarah's 11 00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:38,559 Speaker 1: Day's baby would be born on our birthday, and you 12 00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:41,600 Speaker 1: were correct. I was saying to Sophie, I wish that 13 00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:44,080 Speaker 1: there were betting steaks on sports. Better about this because 14 00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:45,960 Speaker 1: I said, weeks ago, I had a feeling that she 15 00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:47,919 Speaker 1: was going to give birth to her second child on 16 00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:50,400 Speaker 1: our birthday, so it didn't surprise me when she went 17 00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:51,800 Speaker 1: into labor on Monday. 18 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:55,000 Speaker 2: Well, she has spent the last three days in hospital 19 00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:57,200 Speaker 2: with her newborn baby, and as you said, Kate, we 20 00:00:57,360 --> 00:00:59,960 Speaker 2: are yet to find out the name. However, it hasn't 21 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:04,200 Speaker 2: stop people from guessing. At the moment, the current guess 22 00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:07,559 Speaker 2: is Malachi, and I feel like followers might be onto 23 00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:10,959 Speaker 2: something because they did spot his name card on his 24 00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:15,000 Speaker 2: crib and a super sleuth they zoomed up because it 25 00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:17,480 Speaker 2: was quite blurry, but they believe it looks like it 26 00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:20,199 Speaker 2: spells out Malachi, and I feel like they are onto 27 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 2: something when you also look at the origins of the name, 28 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:26,440 Speaker 2: because it means messenger of God or my angel. And 29 00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:29,560 Speaker 2: when Sarah went into labor, she put up an Instagram 30 00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:31,680 Speaker 2: story that said she was on her way and she 31 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:34,760 Speaker 2: put a little angel emoji, so people are assuming she 32 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,080 Speaker 2: was dropping a couple of hints. When she was pregnant 33 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:40,120 Speaker 2: with Fox, she did some ocean little wave emojis, and 34 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:42,200 Speaker 2: that was in reference to his middle name, which is 35 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:43,120 Speaker 2: of course Ocean. 36 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:44,840 Speaker 1: And now, so when you say people we have to 37 00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 1: give credit. These are super slouths on tattle Life who 38 00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:49,840 Speaker 1: have been all over Sarah's Day's recent birth. 39 00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 2: They're fantastic investigators. 40 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:55,360 Speaker 1: The FBI needs them well. I have been feeling quite 41 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:58,560 Speaker 1: sorry for Sarah Curtin Fox because they were all struck 42 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 1: down with a flu. It's quite funny because they keep 43 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 1: talking about this illness that they have and how Sarah's 44 00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 1: having to stay in her room and be away from 45 00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 1: the nursery, and for a second I thought, shit, they've 46 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:13,600 Speaker 1: got COVID, but Sarah did confirm that they do not 47 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:15,800 Speaker 1: have COVID. It's a bad flu that seems to be 48 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,919 Speaker 1: hanging around. I personally could not think of anything worse 49 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 1: than having to give birth with a fluey type cold 50 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,480 Speaker 1: like that would be horrendous. I feel like there has 51 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 1: been increased interest around the birth, particularly because Sarah and 52 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,799 Speaker 1: Kurt did announce during their pregnancy that sadly, the baby 53 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:33,920 Speaker 1: does have some undisclosed health conditions, and because of that 54 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 1: undisclosed health issue, Sarah explained how she has had a 55 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 1: twenty four hour nurse with her that would usually be 56 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:43,080 Speaker 1: in the special care nursery. However, because Sarah is sick, 57 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:45,639 Speaker 1: they've given her this nurse in her room because they 58 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:47,519 Speaker 1: want her to be able to bond with the baby 59 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 1: and have skin on skin. I am really wondering where 60 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: it goes from here, because Sarah on her last announcement 61 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 1: said she's heading home and she's actually getting ready to 62 00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:59,120 Speaker 1: take the photo of the baby, and I'm assuming that 63 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:03,280 Speaker 1: would in the name announcement because this pregnancy has been 64 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 1: very different to her first. She's been very low key 65 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 1: about announcing her pregnancy first of all, and then also 66 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,359 Speaker 1: the gender. So I am wondering, do you guys think 67 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:13,240 Speaker 1: it's just going to be an Instagram post or do 68 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 1: you think she'll drag the name reveal out like she 69 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 1: did with fog Well, I heard on the Health Code 70 00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 1: Daily podcast she did say that they would be doing 71 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 1: a whole podcast episode dedicated to revealing the name. So 72 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 1: I don't know if this is some kind of deal 73 00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:29,079 Speaker 1: with Spotify that maybe she's announcing it this way. I'm 74 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:31,360 Speaker 1: assuming she's also going to do a name reveal vlog, 75 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:33,680 Speaker 1: so maybe she's going to time it that her vlog 76 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 1: and her podcast come out at the same time. Well, no, 77 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 1: I don't. I think she'll leave the name for the 78 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,839 Speaker 1: podcast and then do a birthvlog, I would assume, because 79 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 1: she explained that the room was too dark for her 80 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 1: vlog camera to pick up. However, her iPhone was better 81 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 1: at filming, so she's got everything on there. She said, 82 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 1: she's even got the baby coming out, but it's too 83 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 1: graphic to actually be allowed to put on YouTube. 84 00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 2: Now Sarah and Kurt have shared a couple of videos 85 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 2: of the baby on their Instagram story, but we haven't 86 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 2: yet seen his face, and this led to one follower 87 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 2: writing in a really awful message to Sarah, guessing what 88 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 2: the undisclosed health condition is and saying that she's too 89 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 2: ashamed to show the face because of this condition. It 90 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 2: was really appalling this message, and Sarah chose to share 91 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:20,039 Speaker 2: the person's message with their name attached, and she wrote, 92 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 2: what is actually wrong with some people? I'm sorry, but 93 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 2: this is disgusting. I'm sick of people thinking that because 94 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 2: I have a larger follower number than the average person, 95 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:31,240 Speaker 2: it's okay to speak to me like this. If this 96 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 2: is your attitude, please unfollow me, please. She did explain 97 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:37,279 Speaker 2: that she wanted to take a proper photo of the 98 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:40,040 Speaker 2: baby and reveal him when she had a nice photo 99 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 2: to share. 100 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:43,479 Speaker 1: Yeah, she wants to take that proper Instagram photo, she said, 101 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 1: and while the baby. 102 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 2: And while that might seem a little bit like she 103 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:49,320 Speaker 2: cares about the aesthetics of Instagram, You've got to think 104 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 2: a lot of parents do wait a couple of days 105 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 2: to share a nice photograph. 106 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 1: Well, Instagram is her business as well. So she's hardly 107 00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:59,360 Speaker 1: going to be like it's all about teasing and creating. 108 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 1: Let's be honest, influencers, this is a big payday for them. 109 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 1: As disgusting as it is in terms of Sarah sharing 110 00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 1: that woman's name, that obviously this person is going to 111 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 1: receive a lot of hate. Sarah said that this person 112 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:18,719 Speaker 1: is a nurse. And while I think that the message 113 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 1: was totally disgusting, I'm just so against people doxing people online, 114 00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 1: particularly when they've got over a million followers. I think 115 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 1: in this instance that she just needs to stay off 116 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 1: her phone because she's obviously going to be very emotional. 117 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,600 Speaker 1: As if I mean that comment would be offensive to anyone, 118 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 1: not when you consider that she's just come out of 119 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 1: labor and is feeling like shit with the cold, I 120 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:44,039 Speaker 1: just think, step away from your phone. I felt the 121 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,680 Speaker 1: same thing, Kate. I did think the comment was disgusting, 122 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 1: but I feel like you can still call comments out 123 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 1: like that and maybe just wipe out the person's name 124 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 1: because it takes away from what Sarah is saying in 125 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:56,400 Speaker 1: the first place. Because now I feel like a lot 126 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:57,919 Speaker 1: of people are going to focus on the fact that 127 00:05:57,960 --> 00:05:58,720 Speaker 1: she named in shame. 128 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,480 Speaker 2: See I completely disagree. I think that if you're happy 129 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:03,719 Speaker 2: to put that message out there to someone and send 130 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:05,800 Speaker 2: it in your own name, then you should have the 131 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:08,279 Speaker 2: consequences of that person sharing the message. 132 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:12,080 Speaker 1: I don't know where that has a whole ramification. I mean, 133 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:15,400 Speaker 1: what if this person we don't know what mental state 134 00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 1: that this person is, so this person could receive all 135 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 1: of these death threats and messages and you know, go 136 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 1: do something. 137 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 2: Terrible like you just never know. We don't know the 138 00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:28,160 Speaker 2: mental state of the person. For instance, the new mum 139 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 2: who's just given birth and their hormones are all over 140 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 2: the place. 141 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 1: Two wrongs don't make her right, do they? 142 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:38,680 Speaker 3: Two rights at times don't make it's not necessarily right, 143 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:46,719 Speaker 3: and she's forever pushing my intelligent intelligence. Two rights it 144 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:52,680 Speaker 3: don't necessarily mean it's right. Two wrongs sometimes don't make 145 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 3: her right either. 146 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:59,039 Speaker 1: At standards is dismissed complaints that Sarah's Day's controversial fitness 147 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:02,599 Speaker 1: program promotion breach the code of ethics. The self proclaimed 148 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 1: holistic health princess received backlash at the start of this 149 00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:09,080 Speaker 1: year when she was accused of specifically marketing to people 150 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:13,160 Speaker 1: who have or are at risk of developing eating disorders. Now, Kate. Firstly, 151 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 1: let's refresh everyone's memories with a flashback to Sarah's promotion. 152 00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:19,520 Speaker 4: To the girl who lays in bed every night and 153 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:22,760 Speaker 4: overthinks everything she ate that day, To the girl who 154 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:25,720 Speaker 4: forces herself to state the gym for over an hour, 155 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:29,080 Speaker 4: to the girl who dwells in guilt if she misses 156 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 4: a workout. 157 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 5: I was you. 158 00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 4: Getting myself to this point was far deeper than just 159 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:38,120 Speaker 4: the physical. It was about changing my mindset and creating 160 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 4: a lifestyle, nourishing my body, listening to my body, moving 161 00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 4: because I love my body, not because I'm trying to 162 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 4: fix it. So shout out to the girls who have 163 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 4: come full circle and can rest in balance, consistency over burnout, 164 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 4: balance over restriction, and finally listening to our bodies now. 165 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 1: Following this promotion, the backlash was with not only the 166 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 1: general public, but experts also labeling the promotion as unethical 167 00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 1: and if you recall, eating disorder recovery coach Mia Finlay 168 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:12,680 Speaker 1: shared an amazing sixteen minute video where she very eloquently 169 00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 1: explained to viewers just how damaging the marketing of Sarah's 170 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 1: program was to vulnerable people. In the video, Mia said 171 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 1: that it seemed like the marketing was directed at people 172 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 1: exhibiting signs of eating disorders, or at least those with 173 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 1: unhealthy relationships with movement and food. Now. Following the controversy, 174 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 1: AD Standards received several complaints accusing Sarah of breaching Section 175 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 1: two point six of the aaana's Code of Ethics, which 176 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:43,000 Speaker 1: states advertising or marketing communications shall not depict to material 177 00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 1: contrary to prevailing community standards on health and safety. The 178 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:51,600 Speaker 1: complaints outlined four key areas. Firstly, that Sarah is not 179 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 1: a fitness professional and does not have any qualifications. Secondly, 180 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:59,200 Speaker 1: that the advertisement targets people with behaviors consistent with someone 181 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:03,319 Speaker 1: who is suffering from an eating disorder or exercise addiction. Thirdly, 182 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 1: that the advertisement prays on and targets vulnerable members of 183 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:10,160 Speaker 1: the community, and lastly that the advertisers audience consists of 184 00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 1: teenage girls. 185 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 5: Now. 186 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 2: As part of the complaints process, Sarah was obligated to 187 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:17,960 Speaker 2: respond to the claims, and her response was published on 188 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:21,679 Speaker 2: the ad Standards website. This is what she said, as 189 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 2: I'm sure you're aware by now having a large presence 190 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:27,440 Speaker 2: on social media, issues like this keep happening from people 191 00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:31,079 Speaker 2: who simply don't like me. I don't appreciate that girls 192 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 2: who evidently don't like me try to twist my words 193 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 2: and misconstrue my intentions. It's exhausting trying to make my 194 00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:40,559 Speaker 2: haters happy. Of Course, I'm more than happy to discuss 195 00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:44,319 Speaker 2: any issues with my inspiration video. However, if you listen 196 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 2: to the voiceover, I'm sure you can appreciate this post 197 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:51,000 Speaker 2: was created to be inspiring, empowering, and motivating for women. 198 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:53,560 Speaker 2: I'm happy to help in any way i can with 199 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:57,440 Speaker 2: this case, or to get my lawyers involved if necessary. Unfortunately, 200 00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 2: with a large following, you cannot make everyone happy, and 201 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 2: this post was purely designed and created to inspire, empower 202 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:06,640 Speaker 2: and motivate women. As you can hear during the video, 203 00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 2: we have said listen to your body move because you 204 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 2: love your body, make it a lifestyle. This is exactly 205 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:15,280 Speaker 2: the opposite of what this complaint is insinuating. Also, I 206 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:18,400 Speaker 2: can confirm that my main demographic is not teenage girls, 207 00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 2: it's actually thirty year old women. Now, what did you 208 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:22,720 Speaker 2: guys think about this response? 209 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:25,880 Speaker 1: Well, it was a really interesting response from Sarah. It's 210 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:28,360 Speaker 1: pretty evident that she didn't get any legal help to 211 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 1: construct the email because it was riddle with typos, and 212 00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:34,719 Speaker 1: it kind of seemed like, you know at school, when 213 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:36,800 Speaker 1: you'd be like, oh, these girls are being mean to me, 214 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 1: and this is my excuse. It's just people who are 215 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:43,640 Speaker 1: being mean. She didn't take any responsibility for the video. Yeah, 216 00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 1: it was very strange to put the criticism down to 217 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:50,000 Speaker 1: just having haters and people don't like her, particularly because 218 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:52,040 Speaker 1: experts like me and Finlay did weigh in on the 219 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 1: video and provide their expert advice and recommendations on it. 220 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:57,360 Speaker 1: I wouldn't put that down to people being haters. I'd 221 00:10:57,360 --> 00:10:59,800 Speaker 1: put that down to people being genuinely concerned about the 222 00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:01,920 Speaker 1: message that is being put out there. And I'm so 223 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:03,840 Speaker 1: sick of people being like, oh, no, they're just a 224 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:06,600 Speaker 1: hater because they've complained. It's like, no, people actually have 225 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:09,800 Speaker 1: a genuine complaint. It's interesting because one of the complaints 226 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:13,360 Speaker 1: was that Sarah doesn't have any experience in the field, 227 00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:16,559 Speaker 1: and I was surprised that her response didn't include any 228 00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:20,800 Speaker 1: reference to experienced people that have helped put the program together, 229 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:24,559 Speaker 1: because it's like, we were there, experienced people helping there. 230 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 1: Because I feel like that would be a main point 231 00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:29,320 Speaker 1: to say we have had a nutritionist onboard. We have 232 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 1: a qualified personal trainer. There was none of that to 233 00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 1: rebut that comment regarding Sarah not having any professional qualifications. 234 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 1: She literally didn't acknowledge any of the points that were 235 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,360 Speaker 1: made by the complaint. She just put it down to 236 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:47,560 Speaker 1: that they're haters. That's literally all she said. And it 237 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 1: was quite clear that this isn't the first time she's 238 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:51,960 Speaker 1: had to respond to a complaint like this, because it's like, 239 00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:55,120 Speaker 1: as you must be aware by now, you know, this 240 00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:58,360 Speaker 1: is just a string of harassment going on directed at me. 241 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 1: And I think her reference to the lawyers was rather interesting. 242 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 1: It almost seemed a little bit threatening, you know, oh, well, 243 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,440 Speaker 1: I'm going to get my lawyers involved in this, you know, 244 00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:08,720 Speaker 1: an undertone there. 245 00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:11,880 Speaker 2: I also found it interesting that she referenced that her 246 00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:15,040 Speaker 2: key demographic isn't teenage girls, but it's in fact thirty 247 00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 2: year old women. As if thirty year old women can't 248 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 2: succumb to the pressures of social media and eating disorders. 249 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:23,719 Speaker 1: Is anyone actually buy that though, I would say her 250 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:27,079 Speaker 1: audience is young twenty year old women. Well, I would 251 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 1: like to know what sort of receipts she had to 252 00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:31,880 Speaker 1: provide to the ad Standards board, because do you think 253 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,520 Speaker 1: she provided a screenshot of a demographic, because surely she 254 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 1: would have to. But as I agree with you, Sophie, 255 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:40,319 Speaker 1: how a thirty year old women not a vulnerable demographic either. 256 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 1: I mean a lot of women go through pregnancies in 257 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:46,920 Speaker 1: their thirties, and if these women have had eating disorders before, 258 00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:48,959 Speaker 1: I feel like that would be very triggering to them 259 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 1: putting on weight with pregnancy. So I just think that 260 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:56,280 Speaker 1: her response was total bullshit, and I'm still in shock 261 00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 1: that the ad Standards Board dismissed the complaints. 262 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 2: We've got to go into their decisions. So after viewing 263 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:06,559 Speaker 2: the advertisement and considering the complaints and also Sarah's response, 264 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,960 Speaker 2: the ad Standards Community Panel dismissed the case. They said 265 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 2: the advertisement did not contain material contrary to prevailing community 266 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 2: standards on health and safety, and determine it did not 267 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:20,680 Speaker 2: breach Section two point six of the code. The panel 268 00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 2: agreed that while Sarah was not a qualified professional, they 269 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 2: deemed that that concern was not within the provision of 270 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:29,760 Speaker 2: the code. They also said that people making complaints could 271 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,960 Speaker 2: not know the demographic of Sarah's audience, and that Sarah 272 00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:35,960 Speaker 2: had said her main demographic is women in their thirties. 273 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:39,080 Speaker 1: I found it interesting that the panel noted that the 274 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:42,240 Speaker 1: women in the advertisement looked healthy and fit rather than 275 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:45,800 Speaker 1: skinny and malnourished, and that she is shown eating healthy 276 00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,520 Speaker 1: food and doing various exercises. I feel like this shows 277 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:52,280 Speaker 1: a complete misunderstanding about eating disorders in general, because you 278 00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 1: don't have to look malnourished to be suffering. Eating disorders 279 00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 1: are a mental health issue that you cannot always see, 280 00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:03,079 Speaker 1: and I just think that was absolutely disgusting and ridiculous. 281 00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:06,880 Speaker 2: The panel also concluded that the advertisement does not suggest 282 00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:11,000 Speaker 2: that following the program will cure an eating or exercise disorder, 283 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:15,520 Speaker 2: but rather details Sarah's experience of adjusting her mindset and 284 00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:18,800 Speaker 2: building a lifestyle that was about balance and happiness instead 285 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 2: of the numbers on the scale. It's really disturbing that 286 00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 2: this panel can't see how thinly veiled this dieting message 287 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:30,040 Speaker 2: is under all this crap about changing your mindset. It's 288 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:34,360 Speaker 2: quite clear with the wording that the advertisement was directed 289 00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 2: at people who have had disordered eating, and yes, it 290 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 2: might not have said. 291 00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 1: That it was going to cure your eating disorder, but 292 00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:45,480 Speaker 1: it was definitely targeting those people with an eating disorder, 293 00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 1: So you would assume that if those are the people 294 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:51,240 Speaker 1: you are targeting, you're providing a solution to their problem, 295 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:53,600 Speaker 1: which is curing but at eating disorder. 296 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:56,160 Speaker 2: But it also alluded that here's a space where all 297 00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:59,160 Speaker 2: of us like minded people who have experience and eating 298 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:02,760 Speaker 2: disorder can come together and share our experiences. I'm so 299 00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:04,360 Speaker 2: confused by this ruling. 300 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 1: Well, the panel also considered that most viewers would find 301 00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:10,640 Speaker 1: the advertisement to be promoting a fitness program, but would 302 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 1: not consider that the advertisement suggested that the program will 303 00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 1: fix mental health issues. I wouldn't have to know who 304 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:19,240 Speaker 1: was on this panel and how it was constructed, because 305 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:22,560 Speaker 1: it's really interesting when you reflect on the process of 306 00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:27,520 Speaker 1: this decision, because basically anyone can make a complaint, but 307 00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:30,880 Speaker 1: they are judged very differently depending on what section of 308 00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:33,720 Speaker 1: the code that they fall under. So people who want 309 00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:36,720 Speaker 1: to make a complaint under Section one actually have to 310 00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:39,640 Speaker 1: pay a fee because their complaint is assessed by an 311 00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:43,640 Speaker 1: industry jury and their job is to determine complaints involving 312 00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:48,080 Speaker 1: issues of truth, accuracy, and legalities of advertising. And this 313 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:51,000 Speaker 1: panel is made up of lawyers who have certified experience 314 00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:55,800 Speaker 1: and expertise in advertising as well as competitor and consumer law. However, 315 00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:59,080 Speaker 1: complaints under section two, which was the complaint made against Sarah, 316 00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:01,440 Speaker 1: are heard by a commmunity panel made up of a 317 00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:05,600 Speaker 1: body of independent members of the community. And with these complaints, 318 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:08,760 Speaker 1: the advertiser is notified and asked to provide a response 319 00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 1: and the complaint is then considered by the community panel 320 00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 1: and anyone who's made a complaint, as well as the 321 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:17,800 Speaker 1: person the complaint is made against, is updated on the 322 00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:22,080 Speaker 1: decision and then the case is published publicly. So it 323 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:25,640 Speaker 1: makes me think, well, how is this community panel put together? 324 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:28,520 Speaker 1: And I would really think moving forward, it would be 325 00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:31,480 Speaker 1: beneficial to have someone like if the complaint is around 326 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:35,360 Speaker 1: eating disorders, have someone like me and Finlay on the panel, 327 00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:38,840 Speaker 1: because how are these people commenting on something that they 328 00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:40,600 Speaker 1: may not be experts in the field. 329 00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:42,280 Speaker 2: Of the thing is? Though, there is a bigger picture 330 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 2: to this.

What's what's the photo? 366 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:49,960 Speaker 2: Now? As you can hear, the producers seem to have 367 00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:53,320 Speaker 2: caught the contestants off guard, pressuring them to comment about 368 00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:56,280 Speaker 2: the photo in question. How did you guys feel about 369 00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:59,359 Speaker 2: the way the producers were throwing contestants these questions? 370 00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 1: Well, it was pretty clear in Wednesday Night's episode that 371 00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:05,119 Speaker 1: a lot of them thought they weren't even allowed to 372 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 1: talk about the photo scandal. Tamara seemed really surprised that 373 00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:11,680 Speaker 1: the producer was even asking her about it, and they 374 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 1: didn't seem to even want to make it a thing. 375 00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 1: A few of them said no comment. 376 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:19,400 Speaker 2: Now, for the past couple of weeks, the show has 377 00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:23,040 Speaker 2: been pitting Dom and Olivia against one another. Last week 378 00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:27,280 Speaker 2: we saw Olivia criticize Dom's voice and Dom ultimately smashed 379 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:30,440 Speaker 2: a glass. Now on Wednesday night, it all did come 380 00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:34,159 Speaker 2: to a head at the dinner party where Olivia allegedly 381 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 2: circulated a naked photo of Dom from a secret OnlyFans 382 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:41,360 Speaker 2: page to the other contestants, and the photo was circulated 383 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:44,480 Speaker 2: without Dom's knowledge or consent, and it is believed to 384 00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:48,160 Speaker 2: have been an act of revenge by Olivia. Olivia said 385 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:51,000 Speaker 2: during the episode, when someone smashes a wine glass in 386 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:52,560 Speaker 2: your face, you google them. 387 00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:55,960 Speaker 1: So during the dinner party, Cody, who was married to Selena, 388 00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:58,719 Speaker 1: he brought up the photos and he did it in 389 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:02,920 Speaker 1: the most untapped He was heavily criticized for this, so 390 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:06,240 Speaker 1: he berated Dom, asking her if her husband, Jack knew 391 00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:09,200 Speaker 1: about her OnlyFans account and if he'd seen the photo 392 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:09,800 Speaker 1: in question. 393 00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:10,360 Speaker 5: Now. 394 00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:13,640 Speaker 2: Cody's questions came across as more of an accusation than 395 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:16,200 Speaker 2: anything else, as though Dom should be ashamed of her 396 00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:19,480 Speaker 2: OnlyFans account and that Jack's opinion of her will greatly 397 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:23,359 Speaker 2: change once he knows more about this supposed lifestyle that 398 00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:25,560 Speaker 2: she lives that's been exposed very much. 399 00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:27,960 Speaker 1: Was Dom, you have done the wrong thing, and we're 400 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:29,919 Speaker 1: going to call you out now and embarrass you in 401 00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:30,639 Speaker 1: front of the group. 402 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:30,880 Speaker 5: Now. 403 00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:33,920 Speaker 2: It was followed by a judgmental line of questioning from 404 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:37,040 Speaker 2: the majority of other contestants, and they really did turn 405 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:40,680 Speaker 2: on Dom over her financial choices. Now, Dom has since 406 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 2: explained that she was making money from OnlyFans to pay 407 00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:47,880 Speaker 2: her rent during lockdown. Now, whilst this was going on, 408 00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:51,560 Speaker 2: the so called experts behind the scenes were saying that 409 00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:56,240 Speaker 2: this really smelt like Olivia had a Van detta against Dom, 410 00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:58,520 Speaker 2: and they said the dinner party seemed to all be 411 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,840 Speaker 2: about payback. Now, in a disturbing twist, it appears that 412 00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:05,520 Speaker 2: the producers asked Dom to take down her OnlyFans account 413 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:09,280 Speaker 2: and allegedly convinced her that this controversial storyline would be 414 00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:12,760 Speaker 2: good for her on the show. Now, this incident did 415 00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:16,000 Speaker 2: cause Dom during the dinner party to walk out and 416 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 2: yell at the producers that she will literally get naked 417 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,199 Speaker 2: right then and there so the cameras would have to 418 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:23,960 Speaker 2: stop filming her. So she was clearly distressed by this 419 00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:24,760 Speaker 2: dinner party. 420 00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 1: I'm just really surprised that in twenty twenty two, we 421 00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:32,119 Speaker 1: are still seeing naked photos positioned as salacious scandals. I 422 00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:35,159 Speaker 1: thought as a society we had grown and moved past 423 00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:38,879 Speaker 1: this horrendous slut shaming and victim shaming because growing up 424 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:41,960 Speaker 1: in the early two thousand and twenty tens, we saw 425 00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:45,640 Speaker 1: so many young female celebrities being shamed about nude photos 426 00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:48,560 Speaker 1: that had either been leaked by their partner or photos 427 00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 1: that had been taken without their consent, and in these instances, 428 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 1: the media capitalized off the women's trauma. 429 00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:57,399 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right, okay. I remember in two thousand and 430 00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:00,640 Speaker 2: six when Lara Bingle, who's now Laura Worthing, was only 431 00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:03,879 Speaker 2: nineteen years old and she was dating football at Brendan 432 00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:06,600 Speaker 2: Favohla and he took a photo of her while she 433 00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:09,560 Speaker 2: was in the shower, and in the photo she looked 434 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:12,480 Speaker 2: visibly distressed, and it was clear that the photo was 435 00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:16,720 Speaker 2: taken without her consent. She looked really surprised, and Brendan 436 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:20,320 Speaker 2: allegedly sent that photo onto other players and it somehow 437 00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:23,639 Speaker 2: made its way into the mainstream media. And despite Lara 438 00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:26,879 Speaker 2: being a clear victim of revenge porn, A so called 439 00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:29,080 Speaker 2: expert in the field said at the time that it 440 00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:32,879 Speaker 2: was incredibly naive of celebrities like Lara to find themselves 441 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:36,439 Speaker 2: in such compromising situations and that people in the public 442 00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:39,160 Speaker 2: eye should be very careful and aware of the fact 443 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:41,640 Speaker 2: that photos taken of them in what could be an 444 00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:44,440 Speaker 2: embarrassing situation could pop up in the future. 445 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 1: Jeez, how rude of Lara Bingle to have been surprised 446 00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:51,639 Speaker 1: as she showered by a man that she was dating. Like, 447 00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:54,680 Speaker 1: it's so ridiculous that the onus was on Lara Bingle 448 00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:57,919 Speaker 1: not to find herself in any compromising positions. And I 449 00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:01,680 Speaker 1: do remember back in twenty fourteen disgusting slut shaming of 450 00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:04,960 Speaker 1: Jennifer Lawrence. So she was one of many victims of 451 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:08,880 Speaker 1: a nude photo leak that targeted female celebrities. So photos 452 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:12,200 Speaker 1: of her and other stars were shared online without their 453 00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:16,360 Speaker 1: consent after the perpetrator hacked into their iCloud accounts. Now, 454 00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:19,440 Speaker 1: I remember that this made me so scared to ever 455 00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:22,399 Speaker 1: upload any files to iCloud because I just thought, what 456 00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:26,240 Speaker 1: a complete invasion of privacy someone being up to see 457 00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:29,920 Speaker 1: like every photo that's on your phone. Now, Jennifer said 458 00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:33,080 Speaker 1: it was so unbelievably violating and that she feels like 459 00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:36,479 Speaker 1: she got gain banged by the fucking planet. Now, I 460 00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:41,080 Speaker 1: remember these photos circulating, and it's so bad because at 461 00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:44,560 Speaker 1: the time I think there was so much internalized misogyny 462 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:49,080 Speaker 1: and misunderstanding about women's sexuality that I judged her. I 463 00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:52,240 Speaker 1: remember being like, oh, these photos are disgusting, And now 464 00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:54,520 Speaker 1: I look back and think how ashamed I am that 465 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:57,639 Speaker 1: that was my response to the photos, and how absolutely 466 00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:01,720 Speaker 1: horrifying it is that she was somehow turned into the 467 00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:03,159 Speaker 1: villain in this piece. 468 00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:05,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, the mood really was at the time that it's 469 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:09,040 Speaker 2: the women's fault for putting themselves in this situation and 470 00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:12,679 Speaker 2: trusting their partners with these photos. The blame wasn't on 471 00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:15,959 Speaker 2: the person who maliciously leak the content or the media 472 00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:19,439 Speaker 2: who used these images to literally sell more papers and 473 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:22,359 Speaker 2: make more money through clicks. And I just still can't 474 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:26,679 Speaker 2: believe that, in twenty twenty two, on a primetime television show, 475 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:30,640 Speaker 2: we are seeing a woman's sexuality be weaponized against her 476 00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:34,880 Speaker 2: for pure entertainment, with the motive to humiliate her not 477 00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:37,000 Speaker 2: only in a room full of her peers, but to 478 00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:39,879 Speaker 2: the rest of the nation who were captivated by this show. 479 00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:42,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, the whole incident made me feel really grubby and 480 00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 1: really sick, to be honest. I mean, I felt like 481 00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:48,640 Speaker 1: as a society we'd reached a point where women were 482 00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:52,840 Speaker 1: embracing their sexuality and progressive steps were being taken in 483 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:56,160 Speaker 1: the perception of sex work and Only Fans, And there 484 00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:59,480 Speaker 1: is absolutely nothing wrong with a woman embracing her body 485 00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:03,200 Speaker 1: and choosing to take naked photos of herself. In this instance, 486 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:07,360 Speaker 1: the image has come from OnlyFans, a platform that allows 487 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:11,439 Speaker 1: creators to create content and willingly share images of themselves 488 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:14,399 Speaker 1: on their own terms and charge for it. And she 489 00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:18,040 Speaker 1: was trying to earn money to live and survive, which 490 00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:20,080 Speaker 1: is a lot of these women's stories on the platform. 491 00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:23,719 Speaker 1: I mean, there are many maths contestants that, once gaining 492 00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:26,680 Speaker 1: a following, go on OnlyFans like Jessica Powell and make 493 00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:28,720 Speaker 1: an absolute killing offer as well. 494 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:31,399 Speaker 2: And that's the thing, that's what's so ironic. There is 495 00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:35,960 Speaker 2: nothing really scandalous or controversial about Dom's photo, But what 496 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 2: is scandalous is the way it was passed around from 497 00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:42,960 Speaker 2: one cast member to the other in order to humiliate 498 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 2: and shame her and ultimately seek revenge on her. And 499 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:49,760 Speaker 2: even the way that the producers use this scandal to 500 00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:52,879 Speaker 2: product contestants into forcing them to make some sort of 501 00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:56,879 Speaker 2: comment about the photos and turn this into a scandalous storyline. 502 00:25:56,960 --> 00:25:59,119 Speaker 2: Is clear from day one that this was their motive 503 00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:01,320 Speaker 2: because they wanted something new they didn't just want a 504 00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:04,040 Speaker 2: cheating scandal, they wanted to take it to the next level. 505 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:06,720 Speaker 2: But they've really read the room completely wrong. 506 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:09,000 Speaker 1: Oh. I mean, all they've done is pitted two women 507 00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 1: against each other and it's just so gross. I'm so 508 00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:15,040 Speaker 1: sick of the media trying to have women versus women. 509 00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:18,000 Speaker 1: It's quite clear that the producers went out of their 510 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:21,920 Speaker 1: way to manufacture this storyline for ratings, and in my opinion, 511 00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:24,840 Speaker 1: the producers would have known before they signed Dom on 512 00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:27,280 Speaker 1: for the show that she had an OnlyFans account and 513 00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:30,439 Speaker 1: handed the information onto Olivia as a bit of an 514 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:33,399 Speaker 1: ace up her sleeve. Not only is this completely unfair 515 00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:35,679 Speaker 1: to dom, but I feel like the producers have also 516 00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:39,200 Speaker 1: played a part in manipulating Olivia to do their dirty work, 517 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:43,639 Speaker 1: because on a show like this, you actually want to 518 00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:45,720 Speaker 1: be a bit of a villain or you want storylines 519 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:49,480 Speaker 1: surrounding you, because you know how lucrative a career is 520 00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:53,320 Speaker 1: on social media if people know you. I mean, look 521 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:55,280 Speaker 1: at Jessica Powell. She turned out to be a villain, 522 00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:59,040 Speaker 1: but she is making bank on OnlyFans on her influencer career. 523 00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:01,920 Speaker 1: It's the testants that sort of float in the background 524 00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:03,560 Speaker 1: that don't really make much out. 525 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:05,080 Speaker 2: Of it in the end, and that's a thing we 526 00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:08,119 Speaker 2: really have to question the reality of how Olivia is 527 00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:11,120 Speaker 2: being presented to us. There is just so much rhetoric 528 00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:14,159 Speaker 2: around who's the good girl, who's the bad girl, and 529 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:16,800 Speaker 2: the women are just being turned into characters and given 530 00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:20,240 Speaker 2: roles to play because initially Olivia was the good girl 531 00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:23,639 Speaker 2: who's then turned into this mean girl's character. And it 532 00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:25,760 Speaker 2: is really hard to tell what is Olivia and what 533 00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:29,040 Speaker 2: is production because we all know by now that every 534 00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:32,800 Speaker 2: reality show needs a villain. We also know on reality 535 00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:37,280 Speaker 2: TV shows that people's traits and behaviors are always exaggerated 536 00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:40,679 Speaker 2: by the editing and the music, and sometimes storylines can 537 00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:43,280 Speaker 2: be completely fabricated. And this is a show where we 538 00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:47,119 Speaker 2: have so called experts who are doing psychological testing with 539 00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:50,399 Speaker 2: these contestants, so they literally know what buttons to push 540 00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 2: and what traits contestants have and the sort of behaviors 541 00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:55,960 Speaker 2: that they can encourage and manipulate. 542 00:27:56,320 --> 00:27:58,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, you can only see by the way 543 00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:00,679 Speaker 1: Olivia was portrayed at the start how how easy it 544 00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:04,920 Speaker 1: is to manipulate viewers impressions of people. And I mean 545 00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:08,960 Speaker 1: many people have questioned whether Olivia. Sharing the naked image 546 00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:13,040 Speaker 1: amongst the other contestants counts as revenge porn, which it's 547 00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:15,440 Speaker 1: important to note it is a criminal act. In Australia. 548 00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:19,480 Speaker 1: Sextortion laws announced in November twenty twenty one mean ex 549 00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:23,040 Speaker 1: partners and strangers posting or threatening to post revenge porn 550 00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:26,440 Speaker 1: images of people without their consent could face fines of 551 00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:30,360 Speaker 1: one hundred and eleven thousand dollars or jail time. Now 552 00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:34,160 Speaker 1: these tough fines are included in Australia's Online Safety Act, 553 00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:37,480 Speaker 1: which aims to better protect victims of image based abuse. 554 00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:39,520 Speaker 2: I think it will be really interesting to see if 555 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:42,120 Speaker 2: DOM does seek legal action over this, and whether Channel 556 00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:45,080 Speaker 2: nine is implicated in this. Now, taking a slightly different 557 00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:47,160 Speaker 2: look at this, Kate, do you think that this would 558 00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 2: have been posed as such as scandal if it had 559 00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:52,120 Speaker 2: been one of the grooms who was on only fans 560 00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:54,240 Speaker 2: or who had a nude photo circulating. 561 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:56,959 Speaker 1: Oh, definitely not. It would have been a little funny 562 00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:59,480 Speaker 1: storyline where they all had a bit of a laugh 563 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:02,480 Speaker 1: and the photo got passed around and they took the 564 00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:04,160 Speaker 1: piss out of the guy and he was seen as 565 00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:07,640 Speaker 1: a bit of a playboy. Women are treated so differently 566 00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:12,000 Speaker 1: in general, but also on reality TV. As we said before, 567 00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:16,360 Speaker 1: pitting women against women is a proven storyline that people 568 00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:18,560 Speaker 1: just want to keep coming back and watching. 569 00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:25,280 Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, causeise what to do? 570 00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:29,360 Speaker 3: Oh say less? 571 00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:30,840 Speaker 2: Actually I haven't had it in or what. 572 00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:34,760 Speaker 1: Eagle eyed followers have spotted signs that Hannah Orville and 573 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:38,640 Speaker 1: North Melbourne footballer Cameron A. Zaha maybe back together following 574 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:42,400 Speaker 1: their messy split. Sophie, can you tell us more so. 575 00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:45,240 Speaker 2: If you cast your minds back to February twenty twenty one, 576 00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:48,200 Speaker 2: Hannah revealed that she and Cameron had called a quits 577 00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:51,440 Speaker 2: after dating for over a year now. Hannah took to 578 00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:54,160 Speaker 2: her Instagram story to reveal she had received a number 579 00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:57,880 Speaker 2: of dms about Cameron being spotted out and about with girls. 580 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:01,840 Speaker 2: She wrote, for all the girl's messaging me overnight with photos, etc. 581 00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 2: Myself and Cam split up a couple of days ago. 582 00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:07,640 Speaker 2: Thanks for all of your support and letting me know 583 00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:10,520 Speaker 2: just in case, etc. It's nice to see that he's 584 00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:13,920 Speaker 2: moved on so nice and quick. Now A super sleuth 585 00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:17,360 Speaker 2: has sent us in some screenshots which show the pair 586 00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:21,320 Speaker 2: may have rekindled their romance over a year after they split. 587 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:24,680 Speaker 2: So on Wednesday, Hannah shared a photo to her Instagram 588 00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:28,480 Speaker 2: story of some delicious looking Japanese food at a restaurant 589 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:31,800 Speaker 2: called Bounty of the Sun in Melbourne. Now she captured 590 00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:36,720 Speaker 2: the insta story too Good. At the exact same time, 591 00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:40,560 Speaker 2: Cameron also shared an Instagram story to his cooking page 592 00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:43,920 Speaker 2: which is called bulls cooking with the same food but 593 00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:48,320 Speaker 2: from a slightly different angle. Okay, do you think that 594 00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:50,360 Speaker 2: this is a bit of a soft launch and they've 595 00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:51,760 Speaker 2: purposely done this? 596 00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:54,719 Speaker 1: Oh, I definitely think that there's some strategy behind this. 597 00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:57,320 Speaker 1: I mean, it gets people interested in their account. I'm 598 00:30:57,360 --> 00:31:00,520 Speaker 1: sure it would drive up engagement for them, and they 599 00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:03,880 Speaker 1: know that. I mean, mostly influencer couples have a lot 600 00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:07,440 Speaker 1: of crossover of followers because normally, if your favorite influencer 601 00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:10,200 Speaker 1: gets a partner, you go follow the partner and vice versa. 602 00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:13,080 Speaker 1: They've both got big public profiles. So I do think 603 00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:14,880 Speaker 1: it's a bit of a soft launch to kind of 604 00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:17,680 Speaker 1: test the waters see what the response is. 605 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:20,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the thing I reckon. Considering it was a 606 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 2: bit of a messy split, they probably want to kind 607 00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:27,440 Speaker 2: of ease their followers into it so people suddenly you know, oh, 608 00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:30,000 Speaker 2: I'm okay with the idea maybe he's changed. It's been 609 00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:30,480 Speaker 2: a year. 610 00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:33,360 Speaker 1: Well, we saw a similar incident play out with Madison 611 00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:36,840 Speaker 1: Wooley and Jonathan Sowers. So they made a public announcement 612 00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:39,760 Speaker 1: that they had broken up, and then they did the 613 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:41,800 Speaker 1: awkward thing where it was quite clear that they were 614 00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:44,440 Speaker 1: back together and they started sort of appearing in each 615 00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:48,960 Speaker 1: other's Instagram profiles, but then they split again. So I 616 00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:51,240 Speaker 1: feel like this is testing the waters. We're not really 617 00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:53,320 Speaker 1: sure if we're back together or not, so we'll put 618 00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:55,600 Speaker 1: it out there a little bit. But I just see 619 00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:58,040 Speaker 1: this trend and I think it's in normal life as 620 00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:01,680 Speaker 1: well as the influencer well that with these young couples, 621 00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 1: they usually have a period where they do get back 622 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:05,640 Speaker 1: together and it doesn't work out. So I don't really 623 00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:07,520 Speaker 1: have big hopes for this relationship. 624 00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:11,320 Speaker 2: Now talking about Madison Woolly and Jonathan's relationship, as our 625 00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:14,560 Speaker 2: listeners will know, they did officially break up a little 626 00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:17,760 Speaker 2: while ago, and Madison has confirmed on her podcast that 627 00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:21,000 Speaker 2: she is on celebrity dating app Raya. Now, this is 628 00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:23,440 Speaker 2: actually the same app where Brittany Hockley met her ex 629 00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:27,480 Speaker 2: boyfriend Jordan Thompson, who is an Australian tennis player. Now, 630 00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:30,120 Speaker 2: one of the reasons that Madison maybe on RAYA is 631 00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:32,920 Speaker 2: well one probably because there's a better standard of people 632 00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:35,960 Speaker 2: on there, but also two because apparently she has been 633 00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:39,160 Speaker 2: banned from Hinge because the people at Hinge thought that 634 00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:42,160 Speaker 2: she was impersonating herself that old chestnut. 635 00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:44,960 Speaker 1: I got banned from Hinge because I'm too famous. 636 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:46,600 Speaker 3: Now. 637 00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:49,680 Speaker 2: She did say that she's not looking for a serious 638 00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:52,880 Speaker 2: relationship and she's more on the apps for fun and 639 00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:56,360 Speaker 2: she can't wait to use it when she's on holiday overseas. 640 00:32:56,760 --> 00:32:59,200 Speaker 2: She also revealed that she has been hit up for 641 00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:03,440 Speaker 2: dates by war sounds like another male influencer now if 642 00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:06,520 Speaker 2: you will cast your minds back. There were rumors floating 643 00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:10,160 Speaker 2: around that she and Mitch Third had been talking, which 644 00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:12,560 Speaker 2: is interesting because she has been on a lot of 645 00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:15,960 Speaker 2: brand trips with Tarlia Scaines, who is, of course Mitch 646 00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:18,520 Speaker 2: Third's X. So I feel like we'll have to sit 647 00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:20,760 Speaker 2: and watch this space because they could be a really 648 00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:21,719 Speaker 2: interesting pairing. 649 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 1: M I wonder how that would go. Well. I think 650 00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:26,920 Speaker 1: that's all we've got time for today. Thank you so 651 00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:29,720 Speaker 1: much for joining us for another episode of Outspoken, and 652 00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:31,840 Speaker 1: if you did enjoy the episode.
