I’m Amber from influencer updates on
Instagram and tonight I’m going to be
talking about three Australian
influencer things that have happened
this week that have been the biggest
news stories the first one being Karina
Herby accidentally buying a house the
second one being Vero assault getting
into a feud with her removalist and the
third one
being Lucy Jackson she has responded to
rumors that she was rejected by Jack
steel all right so I’ll get started on
the Karina Herby one so I’m sure you’ve
all heard this one this has been all
over the news sites this week outspoken
have spoken about it the podcast and yes
so this week Karina Herby she released a
reel of her celebrating that she had
just bought an investment property seems
legitimate seems okay however
controversially in the real she started
it off saying that she accidentally
bought an investment property and this
investment property is a waterfront unit
two-bedroom unit in caran which is on
the go Coast Georgie Stevenson also
lives in caran as does Karina Irby the
apartment is $1.2 million plus plus plus
like plus stamp Duty plus you know all
the other fees that you have to pay so
she accidentally bought a $1.2 million
Waterfront unit in caran in front of her
house so she showed that she was sitting
in her Lounge room which looks
incredible by the way she has like 180°
ocean views and she showed that she
could see the unit out her window so
very very lucky not lucky I suppose it’s
not luck that she’s bought this but it
looks incredible it looks like an
absolutely amazing place to
live she also noted in her caption
cheers O So as you may or may not know
she does do only fans and so she’s
saying cheers o as in cheers only fans
for the money that she has made to buy
this investment property I don’t know if
that’s I don’t know why she said that I
just don’t know what that achieves like
she also has many businesses like she
has a bikini business she has Mo smile
club which is an active way business I
believe or maybe that is the bikini
business but she has multiple businesses
and it’s yeah it’s weird for her to say
cheers o because then when people
clapped back at her saying you know this
is so tone deaf like people can’t even
afford groceries at the moment and
you’re bragging about accidentally
buying a $1.2 million property she did
end up explaining that you know she’s
been doing her businesses for 13 to 14
years people can unfollow her like she’s
worked really hard all of this time but
in the original caption she wrote cheers
o and I think she’s only been doing only
fans for a few years and yeah kind of
just yeah I don’t know it’s kind of
contradictory like it doesn’t seem that
she worked hard like she’s then saying
in her
response although I do admit only if F
work would be really hard I can’t even
imagine that would be something I could
never
do um and then okay what else the
comment
saying oh yeah she also bought a brand
new BMW recently and I also read
somewhere that she gifted a friend a
brand new BMW recently so she’s
definitely got plenty of money she also
mentioned in her response that she’s not
rich she’s far from Rich she actually
mentioned so I think that she is a
little bit very out of touch like she is
Rich by anyone’s standards so yeah it
just hasn’t gone down down very well and
I
suppose probably about a year ago that
she was called out for photoshopping her
photos and she ended up admitting that
yes that was true and I think that that
got a lot of people offside because
she’d always been about body body
positivity and showing off like
cellulite and things so that got a lot
of people offside and I think that this
is like another round of controversy
that’s getting a lot of people offside
with her
all right that was a long update next
one is Vera salt so Vera salt is also an
only fans Creator Creator is that the
word that I would use I’m not sure but
um she recently publicly shamed sorry
I’m just reading my own notes here she
recently publicly shamed her furniture
removal list so she was moving houses
and she posted a picture of the person
who was doing the job and said like you
know is this your man he’s a terrible
person like publicly shaming him posting
his photo to her I think she’s got like
you know half a million followers on
Instagram probably more close to a
million I would say she did a 5 and a
half minute story explaining that this
removalist had been like swearing at her
she had been told in advance that she
needed to pack like whatever she wanted
taken in the removal van had to be
packed in boxes so she had said to them
like she was trying to show them like
these are the boxes that that I need
packed and they kept running away from
her whenever she was trying to show them
what needed packing and then saying they
don’t know what to pack and she also
mentioned that they asked for tools to
uninstall her fridge because it had like
the plumbing going to it and she told
them they said when did you last when
did you actually install this fridge and
she said two weeks ago and they said
they don’t believe her which is kind of
a strange story she then said they asked
for a popsicle like a zup duper I assume
out of her fridge which she was laughing
she was saying this is just so
Random anyway after all this swearing
and stuff she also mentioned in a story
that was then deleted saying that they
were homophobic so I’m not sure why she
thought that because that was quickly
deleted she also then shamed the wrong
business and then had to delete that
story and shame the correct business I
suppose she mentioned that she emailed
the office of the removal company
complaining and then the guy they said
they were going to call him so she
watched him reject the call but he knew
what had happened cuz she told them
and so he unpacked the truck all the
stuff that he packed he then unpacked
the truck and left and then she ended up
getting a different removal company to
come and pick up all of our stuff later
that day so it was just a big
ordeal of removing stuff and yeah she
obviously just I don’t know it’s really
hard to know what happened here because
the story was just so random but
obviously they were speaking very poorly
to her she felt uncomfortable she told
them so and then they ended up leaving
so she is not going to be paying for the
service she said but yeah I mean that’s
a horrible experience if people were in
my house treating me that way I would be
extremely uncomfortable and I think that
she did the right thing by complaining a
lot of people have said that she
probably shouldn’t publicly be shaming
the business on her platform being that
she does have such a big platform but I
don’t know like if they were
intimidating her fair enough that
they’re getting blasted but yeah I’m not
sure this is just all her version of the
story of course there’s always three
sides to a story story her version their
version and the truth so yeah think what
you will of that one the third update
I’ve got for this week is Lucy Jackson
so unfortunately Lucy Jackson has
blocked me I know why she’s blocked me
like I get it she actually blocked me
back when I was talking about her and
olle frost feuding so yeah I totally get
that she’s blocked me and it sucks like
I listen to her podcast every episode
because I just think she’s so hilarious
I get that she’s Politically Incorrect
in a lot of things and she does say
offensive things but I find that that’s
kind of refreshing from an influencer in
some ways
like
obviously this is controversial for me
to say that you know that sort of
stuff’s funny but yeah I think that they
all try to be so prim and proper and
it’s nice that she’s still the same
person she was when she started like
Olivia Molly Rogers she’s prim and
proper she’s at the opposite end of the
scale as Lucy Jackson I find her
hilarious she’s just so funny and anyway
I did a blind item last week and said
that um apparently Lucy Jackson was keen
on Jack so Jack steel from um what’s it
called The Inspired unemployed and he
rejected her advances so obviously this
is unverified but I thought oh that
actually does sound quite true like you
know I don’t want to get sued but the
truth defense would Prevail if it was
true anyway she’s saying that it is not
true I also mentioned on the blind item
that it’s possible that this happened
but I don’t believe it would ever work
because I think that they’re both very
main character energy in a good way like
that to me is a compliment to be main
character energy and also I said they’re
both too funny and by too funny I just
mean like they’re both so hilariously
funny I don’t mean it as a bad thing I
mean they’re too funny it’s they’re so
funny but anyway she obviously took
offense to that and then she posted in
her happy hour with Lucy and Nikki
Facebook group and she wrote just wanted
to put this in here punters and say this
is so untrue hahaa Jack’s a work friend
we have the same manager this page gives
me the ick so yeah my page gives her the
ick which yeah really
sucks um I just found it a really weird
defense to say that he’s a work friend
and they have the same manager and it’s
like that makes it untrue whereas I
don’t believe that does make it untrue
people hook up with their colleagues all
the time and all she did was crack on
and he rejected her I mean potentially
this she’s saying it’s not true but yeah
I just thought it was quite defensive
over something that was quite
minor but also I get that she’s entitled
to have her defense so I’m glad that she
posted in her group because I thought it
was a really good promotion for my page
like she actually left the name of my
page on the screenshot so yeah that was
pretty lucky for me I guess all right
well I am going to get into your
questions just have to scroll back to
the
top all right oh people are studying
this weekend oh this weekend doesn’t
really seem very fun for people does it
thoughts on Emy Lou being in the US I
think it is so cool I love her Vegas
content I love Vegas I think that it’s
really cool that she’s obviously got
like a boyfriend over there or some sort
of romantic relationship whether it be
for Media or whether it be genuine I’m
not sure but either way I think it’s
really cool that she’s over
there did you listen to outspoken
podcast Matt Sakowski breaks his silence
podcast excellent take on his very weak
excuses yes I did listen and I feel that
what they said is very similar to the
same thoughts I had which I reiterated
on my live last week so I agree that
like him saying that he was in the hotel
with Tammy at 3:00 a.m. drunk and
texting this person for his friend but
his friend clearly wasn’t even there
it’s very random like he previously said
no to texting the person why would he
just randomly decide when he’s drunk and
I also thought they didn’t mention this
but yeah I mentioned last week I thought
it was really weird maybe I mentioned it
two weeks ago but it was really weird
that he was saying he didn’t remember
texting the girl and it’s like well you
then kept texting the girl like it looks
like the next day I think he said the
next day that he texts the girl saying
oh you know this was for a friend and
yeah like outspoken said he hasn’t shown
a screenshot of that text exchange so I
guess we’ve just got to take his word
for it I don’t know in the if him as a
character in a TV show like I see
influences as like entertainment like to
me they’re like home and away like a
dramatic TV show and as a character in
this Australian influencer TV show I’m
so mad at him like I don’t like his
character in the show if you know what I
mean but I do I have to remember he is a
person they they are real people in a
real relationship Tammy’s sister Emily
has come to his defense this week in the
comments because you know he’s still
getting slandered in comments like
people are very much not happy with him
and I do find it a bit weird that
Tammy’s not showing him like I find that
really awkward like she’s not putting up
a united front with him not that she’s
to blame for any of this like you know
she can do whatever she wants by in my
books but um yeah I just find that an
interesting sign I also got the ick this
week oh this bothered me a lot that she
released her book and his posts about
the book was just posting the cover and
saying by now like it wasn’t like you
know congratulations to my fiance or so
proud of you it was just by now and then
the next one was about him having ADHD
and this will have to be the first book
he ever reads since high school or
something and I thought what but I feel
like I even posted nicer stuff about
Tammy releasing her book I just found
that really really
strange but yes not sure
there your thoughts on the Morgan
Waterhouse and Justin mck and pick um
when I opened it I just thought it was
hilarious like it’s so awkward for
Olivia Molly Rogers to see that I
suppose but they are in the same circles
they’re both Melbourne male influencers
and they’re both into like the party
scene and I suppose Justin he goes to
Bar Ambi a lot like just as a client
maybe he knows Nick Russian the owner
and then Morgan Waterhouse he works in
like event management or something some
sort of event sort of thing so it makes
sense that they would cross path but
yeah I did find a it very
funny what else I got to say the thing
about Lucy was so untrue she said
numerous times she would never get with
Jack he’s like a brother to her very off
theark there yeah well I guess that is
one opinion and yeah maybe she changed
her mind I don’t know it’s very possible
that it’s not true but oh sorry there
was dust there um yeah maybe he is like
a brother to her but but I don’t know I
think they could be great friends maybe
that’s what she means by brother like
why can’t she just say friend brother’s
random I just think it it’s just she’s
screaming guilty like why is she
overcompensating with excuses as to why
they could not be together something
just seems suspicious to
me this is just my opinion though like
I’m making I’m making my opinion up like
you don’t have to believe it that’s all
good
what are your thoughts on Gypsy lust
getting back with her ex and now
pregnant yeah no one really asks about
Gypsy L very much so her name is Lauren
Bullen and her fiance I think he is or
maybe just boyfriend his name is Liam
Liam something with B I’m pretty sure
Liam something okay sorry um yeah so
they did break up for a while and then
they have now got back together and
having a baby and I mean stranger things
haveen happened like I personally don’t
believe in ever getting back with ex’s I
believe you break up for a reason and
it’s just best not to go there but I’ve
noticed that every time influencers are
single or in a relationship that people
don’t agree with like Matt and Tammy for
example everyone always says oh they
should get back with their ex so maybe
it’s not that uncommon like everybody’s
saying oh you know Tammy should get back
with Matt Paul or when she was hanging
out with ree one time everyone’s like oh
I’d love to see them back together but I
don’t think it’s a good thing to be back
with your ex but obviously Lauren and
Liam are happy and yeah they’re having a
baby so that’s really exciting for them
of
course people are saying that veruka
thrives on drama I do agree I feel like
she reminds me a lot of Michaela tester
her and Vera and Michaela tester are
just there’s a lot of drama that
surrounds those
women someone’s saying I have too much
time on my hand
I
mean if anyone who works has time on
their hands to work maybe it’s too much
time not
sure are you watching I’m a celebrity I
have never watched before and I’m loving
it yes I am watching it I’m only up to
the second elimination though I’m quite
behind so I’ve just watched Candace be
eliminated and I did go online tonight
and vote so I do know who the top three
are only because I went to the voting
thing kind of on purpose kind of
accidental but I wanted to vote for sky
so I was like oh I’m just going to have
to see who’s still there but yeah I hope
she wins I know Abby Chatfield won a few
years ago so maybe like our generation
of people are voting for people on I’m a
celebrity so yeah it’d be really cool if
she won I think that she’d just be so
proud of herself and yeah it would be so
so
great oh yeah Tammy spoke on red hot the
Pod this week so that was Lily Brown’s
podcast um yes she did speak on that and
that this person saying that her and
Matt seemed happy as Larry okay I think
that might have been pre-recorded that
podcast I’m sure they are happy as Larry
but I don’t know what the timeline was
for the recording of that podcast but a
lot of people messaging me saying they
can’t listen to Lily Brown’s podcast
because she speaks really loud she
speaks over the top of her guests and
doesn’t let them speak and I actually
really like that about her I like that
she’s high energy and she like really
brings out a fun side of her guests like
it’s not a serious interview it’s oh she
did interview M Davies one time and I
found that interview was just really
boring it was like a whole heap of
inside jokes that just weren’t funny to
someone who is not inside I guess but
I’ve really liked her interview with
Tammy I highly recommend it much better
than the Mia fredman
one someone was late tuning into my live
because they were listening to the new
Taylor Swift albums
too two
surprises yeah someone saying the Lily
Brown podcast was recorded over over a
month
ago do you think Indie Clinton is okay I
noticed she is at a retreat and everyone
commenting on her latest Tik Tok how sad
she looks she looks like she’s lost a
bit of weight I hope she is okay H I
assume she was okay like she’s there
with her mom and she’s very much
pitching it as like you know a fun thing
to do with her mom and just like a
really nice thing to do with her mom I
was assuming that she was sponsored by
The Retreat company and that’s why she’s
going there to like promote it but yeah
maybe she’s sad and that’s why she’s on
the retreat but I haven’t heard
that and I think that she’s lost a bit
of weight because um she’s been doing
one of those challenges lately she’s
been promoting it a lot it’s their fit
as FK Challenge and yeah I think she has
openly lost weight doing that
challenge thoughts on people worried
about Starlet suffering from religious
Psych pis I haven’t heard of anybody
worried about Starlet suffering from
religious psychosis so Starlet is Tammy
hambros younger
sister interesting I know she is quite
religious and a lot of her posts are
religious but I actually don’t even know
what religious psychosis is but religion
actually really freaks me
out what else
Matt Z seems really pissed off that
Tammy’s not showing him well I would be
like if my fiance wasn’t showing me on
social media I’d be seriously concerned
but also he can’t be concerned because
he knows why like he’s the one
who has done the wrong
thing you should start a podcast on this
stuff I love your speaking Style thank
you I have been told a lot over the
years that I should do a podcast but I
just I would would prefer to put my time
into the account that I’m doing I think
that the outspoken they do a really good
job of the podcast stuff and my
specialty is the daily updates to
Instagram on my subscription
thing I also used to have a lot more
time so the reason why I started this
account was because I had so much time I
had a six-month old or eight six or
seven Monon old baby and they do nothing
they just lay there do you know what I
mean like you tickle them a bit or
whatever but um I had a lot of time when
I had a very young baby and now I have a
one and a three-year-old and they are
hectic absolutely hectic so I prefer I
can only sort of focus my time on one
thing and the subscription is that one
thing Harrison Boon trying to start the
unmar bles and Abby Chatfield going to
Absolute town on him yeah I loved that
so much I think that Abby Chatfield she
just brings ideas to the table that I
never would have thought of like I
really like following her her just for
like worldly knowledge if you know what
I mean Harrison Boone is just a woman
hater basically he just wants everyone
to bow down to him and just be
submissive and he was saying that people
who were like basically 30 and single
and successful unmarriable essentially
and Abby Chatfield clapped back to that
and was just like if you don’t want to
marry me that is a good thing but she
obviously said a lot of like really good
points as well
Sophie wearing a wedding band and
posting comments with her partner
implying their marriage yes yes she is
so I think that pretty much confirms
what I said last week it does seem that
she is
married breaking
news dedicated and her husband are they
still together Kate Jones and her
husband I assum so I haven’t heard
anything but she doesn’t really show him
much on her Instagram that’s for sure
I’ll have to look into that one do you
think Toby Pierce and Rachel will last
after the wedding yes I actually think
that they are very well suited I think
that they’re both very like goals
oriented oriented is that the word I
just think yes definitely and they are
saying they want to have children
together and I definitely think they
will
last Kate Jones’s husband follows heaps
of thirst tra
accounts okay well don’t know what to
say about that can’t be confirmed I
don’t know if that is definitely true
but yeah
okay I love how you’re so supportive of
women thank you I do try to be I’m
always on the woman’s side like yeah
just with everything I think that women
generally don’t lie I think that men men
are cheats and liar they’re such a big
disgrace if you know you know
Tammy is bad at keeping her moods quiet
yes I definitely agree with that it was
the same when she was breaking up with
Matt PA and for about a year she was
posting like passive sort of stuff and
all these Clues and yeah I think that
she is bad at keeping quiet but I also
love that that is really makes her very
interesting to
follow are you going to do any more
bland items this week no I’m not I did
post a few bonus ones into the
subscriber area and I haven’t done my
subscriber Q&A yet this week so that’s
probably what I’ll be focusing on this
weekend but it has been 24 minutes and
I’m going to sign off now thank you all
so much for your questions and if I
didn’t answer yours definitely DM me
after this because I run this account
because I love talking about influencers
so I would love to talk about whatever
question you might have all right I will
talk to you soon bye
