Thinking About Tiffany Pollard Today

Tiffany "New York" Pollard. I know that a lot of people have a lot of opinions about her, but I, for one, feel like we "came up" together. I watched her from the time she was just some girl fighting for Flavor Fav through many twists and turns, some of which happened for all of us to see.

I remember whenever she was facing backlash for her transphobic statements and how taken aback she was by it while everyone pounced on her, and whenever I saw the interaction, I immediately thought, "Oh. She thinks that this is just part of the gig, because of how she was handled when she arrived on the scene." And. Ultimately, I wound up being right, like I usually am (TS Madison confirmed for me basically everything that I had said about the situation).

Tiffany was frequently called a man, a tranny, transvestite, and a drag queen, and it was something that I remember her embracing and never getting mad or upset, saying that these people are fabulous, just like me, etc. So, whenever she's asking that woman about being a man and having certain genitals, she quite literally thought that this is just part of people thinking/saying that you are or look like a man.

Maddie had to explain to her that the people who were speaking about her in those ways were also being transphobic, to which Tiffany was confused, because 'How can somebody be being transphobic to you if you aren't trans?' They are conversations that she didn't seem to have had before, and her trans friends got her together about it and she was able to learn moving forward. (As of now, I don't think that since then she has ever had a similar incident and she still seems to have the support and following of her trans friends and loved ones).

But, one thing that I think about every time Tiffany makes her way back into the spotlight is the fact that we are essentially the same age, but when I was spending my first semester in college, not realizing that I was wasting my time and money, she was getting started on her tract to becoming a "problematic fave" and resetting the course of reality tv.

She did so much that SHE was the star of Flavor of Love, and these were the days before they even CONSIDERED mental health or support. This woman, my age. Early 20s, getting into one of the most exploitative tv situations in history for a man twice her age, who embarrassed her on national tv TWICE, by loving all over her and then selecting someone else in the end.

The years following this debut as the HBIC of reality tv, we got to see a lot of her mom and their shaky relationship, we got to see her attempt to find love multiple times, and do various jobs. We got to see this woman who entered the business in the reality genre sort of stay in that arena for 2 decades. She has so many iconic moments, lines, reactions. There are people who have no idea what her voice sounds like, but they know things she's said because her face has been popular for memes for all this time. She even gets paid to do all of this.

But, she also always plays the villain role. She's always seen as a foe or an antagonist, because she was a hotheaded 23 year old when she first got on camera (maybe younger if it took them a while to record the show). And, I have seen over the years people trash her up and down. Yes, she has a very large fan base, as well, but she's gotten a lot of hate from then up until now, and I don't know if people actually think about the fact that she was in her early 20s whenever VH1 found her willing to pimp herself out to Flavor motherfucking Flav, who once again, is twice her age.

Even her moments of supposed healing (VH1's Family Therapy With Dr. Jenn) was put on TV for our entertainment. This woman really had a weird adulthood, because reality stars simply were not famous whenever she became a famous reality star, and reality tv was not as big or important as it is today. She didn't become rich from her Flavor of Love fame. She has what she has now specifically because she's always out there hustling and loaning out her personality/persona for her fame and fortune.

She set the bar for a lot of the reality tv tropes that we see today. Many of the girlies do not even realize that when they get on camera and they're tryna fit a certain reality role to get screen time, that they are simply emulating a woman who was just herself in her early 20s and was used as a formula that an industry was built upon. There were not many reality tv shows back then, but there were some and even though she wasn't the first, she is one of the first people who others after her decided that they would pick up characteristics from. She hasn't been able to be a full person in front of us and the moment she messes up, she is either met with people laughing at her pain or dragging her to hell for her mistakes.

Happy Birthday to that lady. She ain't perfect, but she has given us a lot and none of our asses ever really seem to want what's best for her. She's a character to most people. An avatar of reality that they watch to see what wild shit she'll do or say next. When, I know that there's a human woman there who I hope does have some grace in her life. Ionknow, Man. I just think Black women deserve some grace, even if they are imperfect people, but especially when their imperfections have been fodder for national audiences to laugh and chatter about, and for almost half of her life now.

No doubt seeing your dreams come true is wonderful. a well spent night has passed after very long time of waiting for this moment.

I finally could be able to see the stars in darkness with no single piece of light. Although no words or pictures can describe the whole scene, but this lead us to a very particular far point. And the point is (everything happened for a reason). - Alhamdullah.

Gia Giudice: Melissa Gorga blocked me on social media amid family drama

Gia Giudice claimed that her aunt, Melissa Gorga, has blocked her on Instagram amid their continued family feud. During Wednesday’s episode of her mother Teresa Giudice’s podcast, “Namaste B$tches,” Gia claimed, “It was simply bizarre. One day, I assume, any individual advised me she posted one thing about me, so I went to go look, and I used to be like, ‘I’m blocked on all the pieces,’ so I’m…

Indagamos en lo que más nos hace daño, pero y ¿en lo bueno?.

En efecto, lo dejamos olvidado, escrutamos en lo malo y olvidamos lo hermoso.

Son formas rebuscadas de hacernos infelices sin validar los hechos, la deforma.

Buscamos sanar remarcando las heridas, cuando solo se necesita realidad y aceptación, ninguna de las otras dos.

Lo bueno no opaca a lo malo, ni viceversa; es un complemento uniforme.

Dejemos las emociones, dejemos los rencores, las heridas y el pasado, actuemos con lo que tenemos, con la realidad, desresponsabilicemos a los demás y hagamos cargo, ya no hay retrospectiva que influya el futuro, todo depende de ti.

я - этo я. и у меня еcть выбoр. я мoгу принять cебя или прoдoлжaть ненaвидеть. я мoгу любить cебя и делaть вcё вoзмoжнoе, чтобы pазвиватьcя или cтоять на меcте и винить cебя за вcе пpошлые ошибки. и я выбиpаю. выбиpаю любовь и уважение к cебе.

Так как я не могу увидеть звёзды над городом, в котором я живу, значит звёзды будут жить у меня в квартире.
