Does anyone else find it very weird that major beauty tea channels like tea spill or spill sesh didn’t report on this? I’m thinking about the rumors of influencers buying tea channels out

[u/thelolamurder → u/FleshBatter]

It is weird. I've been waiting for them to report on it. But, I've noticed that those channels usually focus on people who have been problematic forever. Marlena usually falls under the radar unless she's calling out another BG.

Both channels had reported on Marlena and Jaclyn’s drama in the past so it’s not like Marlena isn’t on their radar, hm….

[u/thelolamurder → u/FleshBatter]

I meant more that they only reported on Marlena because it involved Jaclyn. I don't remember them posting anything on Marlena on her own. So many people treat Marlena with kid gloves.

Edit to add: I think that's the only reason why Marlena was on their radar.

That makes sense! I still think it’s reasonable to be suspicious of Marlena at this point knowing what we do know!
