Not the one who looks petrified - the one who is growling!!
shudder

Just ignore.

It was Meghan's podcast, and no I do not think it was self centred. I am saying someone like him, also a grifter and someone who has had a string of public spats and made slanderous comments about others, while also having a problem with employing black people, while actually pretending publicly he's some kind of hero for employing so many, is not someone whose opinion should be given much weight. Especially as he's clearly trying to deflect attention from Spotify itself having to let go hundreds of people and not having ever made a profit, including on podcasts while he is actually head of Podcast innovation and monetising . They're currently running at a loss of millions. He's picking up his cheque and is not delivering. He knew making awful comments about them would deflect from this. He is unbelievably unprofessional.

@Iwantcakeeveryday - wow they're almost the same person then!
I personally thought the podcasts were self centred, solipsistic garbage ... much like everything else they do and say

right

Could posters please leave the children out of it.

the grifting probably refers to the fact that her staff did most of the work - guests mentioned they were interviewed by staff not Meghan and an ex Archwell member posted some comments to that effect too with some choice comments

I never know any of this kind of detail. I can quite believe though the fashion world is cutthroat and weird. A lot of its values seem very damaging to women and girls.

Rebecca Sananes complained about this Hollywood Reporter article

Her complaint is about the article and how the power players are the celebrities, executives and agents and there is no mentions of producers who Sananes believes (and rightly so) do the hard work. Because of the podcasts she said she created (she mentioned 2) - it was spun by many as an attack on Meghan (not mentioned in the article) and strangely not on Kara Swisher - who was actually mentioned in the article. Meghan indeed interviewed the celebrities in her podcast and the producers interviewed the contributing guests - this is pretty much standard for these kinds of things and would surpirse many in the podcast industry that they would be considered grifters for doing this.

It really doesn't matter to some people who Bill Simmons is or the context in which he said what he said. All that matters is that someone high profile has said something negative about H&M and feeds into their narrative of things going wrong for them.

@skullbabe of course

@skullbabe and yes of course standard for producers to interview guests too but of course when Meghan's podcast does what everyone else's does, shes lazy.

While also collapsed on the floor perhaps???

The Telegraph are saying Dior are denying it.

Will be interesting to see what develops - she may not be an official "brand ambassador", but maybe it will just be a more informal arrangement??

The article details the long connection Dior has with the Royals.

Oh how embarrassing! The Law Of Attraction has it's limitations, obviously,

And I think the Mail already has a whole lot more on this, as predicted over the weekend.

'Duchess of Disappointment' here we come ...

God that’s so embarrassing for them if it’s true . They didn’t even deny it, waited for Dior to do it

Their PR company are shaming them with pieces like these. They’ll be a laughing stock unless they can pull something out of the bag now

Exactly.

The Telegraph article says the Sussexes' spokesman also denied the tie-up, tbf

They’d better hope these things don’t happen in threes and Netflix give them the heave ho

How do you know she is? She could say you know what I am going to take the next 3 years or whatever to spend most of my time with my children. I don't need to be in the public eye. I don't need the money. I'm never going to have this time again. It's not unusual for people to decide this - men or women.

and not in line with their ethical work? Clothing etc consumed by a small % of the world's population.

The original Mail article (was it only yesterday?!) quoted a source from WME, amongst many.
