Meghan’s birthday video

[Greenlittle]

I like the idea and I like the video. (Not that keen on the big desk) And I though MM looked...alive!

Not sure who the other woman was. But there was good chemistry.

I thought it was cringey too, and the idea completely useless.

The high priestess of wokedom.

It was vomit inducing.

Fitting that harry was outside juggling balls though, given that they are now nothing more than a circus act.

Made me cringe. How patronising. A phone call from some celeb in their mansion telling you to “go girl” and grab that minimum wage job while they go back to their yoga with Oprah and ponder how to spend their millions?

It’s the height of narcissism and total lack of self-awareness. Throwing some crumbs to the downtrodden to make yourself look woke, worthy and pious. They are all full of shit I’m afraid. Multi-millionaires who seek every day to become richer and richer than you.

Woke is not an insult unless you are an unpleasant person who belittles what others do in the name of injustice

I thought it was great and she came across well. Of course this is MN so we got posts like the above.

Hear hear, ApplyWithin.

Patronising is exactly the right word.

Smug as well

Thought it was so contrived. I think they both have an inflated sense of themselves

What?? That sounds like whacko conspiracy theory, the queen's a lizard type bollocks.

Mostly I'm embarrassed that someone has so little self-awareness. When you think of the platform they had and the good they could have done.

I agree.

You’ve nailed it. Meghan looked fab though and I like the table!

Wow @Caritas - what has she done to you. I know for a fact she has worked as an actress because I've watched her so you're wrong about the only work she's done and the rest as well no doubt.

I love MM threads. It’s great fun to see how a stranger makes some people so utterly mental I can’t ever imagine getting so worked up about someone I’d never met.

I think they must be doing something practical. Like putting you in touch with someone in their network or the network of the other 40.

We talk about the old boys network and I guess this is a way to build a girls network or use it to help others.

How will they identify whom to help?

@WeAreTheHeroes Yes, knowing someone and their background personally is indeed enlightening...

It's all a bit meaningless I think.

A better idea would be 40 friends donating $40k = $1.6m. Use that money to partner up with a company that can provide CV writing workshops and/or interview skills. I'm fairly sure that would be more beneficial than a 40 minute chat with a celeb, which does more to make said celebrity feel good than it does provide anything of any actual use to the recipient.

Just my opinion for what it's worth.

This or something similar where the women get tangible help ie cv writing, mock interview etc.

I don't see how a chat with a celeb/entrepreneur would help.

This . Absolutely.

Sorry meant to quote @StormzyinaTCup above

@Caritas I'm not a Meghan fan but I do like accuracy and from what I've read, the things you posted are dubious at best, with no credible evidence for them, or have been debunked as in the age theory. Overwhelming evidence shows she's the age she is known as.

I think there's plenty to legitimately criticise. No need to head into the realms of conspiracies
