When they first announced the title, FF there were a lot of people, including me who said, “who does she think she is! Nelson Mandela?“.................no surprise here then!

The use of the phrase Finding Freedom is reminiscent of The Long Walk to Freedom autobiography of revolutionary, political leader and philanthropist Nelson Mandela, and it is clear that Meghan believes that there are similarities between her and the former South African President. She sees herself as an inspirational guru, single-handedly responsible for lecturing on equality concerning race and gender issues as well as climate-change and how we should live our lives. She loves to speak in clichés and phrases more akin to an inspirational Instagram post. Yet to me, I cannot see why she is suddenly such an expert in life. She has earned her position not through hard work and battling against many odds, but through marrying into royalty.

Who do we see about making her a Saint? :rolleyes:

She'd fit right in among the Scientologists as Operating Thetan Level 8. But I bet that's too low level for her, she'll probably found her own church soon and declare herself Chairmeghan of the Board or Meghai Lama.

????? What exactly is this meant to tell me?

The pictures were worth 14 million Dollars. What Ms Jolie did or didn't do with the money is not relevant. I mentioned her because it just happens to be a sum I accidentally know of to illustrate the point I made, which is: Celebrities get a lot of money for exclusive pictures of their children.

Those pics are worth a lot of money and M has said before she doesn't like it when others make money with pictures she sees as her personal property, while she can't.

There is a reason why she takes her own photografer with her when she goes to one of her 'charitable' outings. Look at the trademarks underneath the pics. The birthday video outtakes were trademarked with Royal Sussex, even though they weren't allowed to use it at the time. I was baffeled why seemingly no one else noticed. Now they are trademarked Duke of Sussex/Save the Children. My best guess is, BP saw it and made them donate any profits.

I like that's he's won the "Freedom Medal of Valor" (at 9:28)

I think what they may have been saying is that Ms Jolie is truly humanitarian, whereas Meghan would be doing it for her gain. I don’t think that @Campagne was in any way trying to undermine your point, rather to amplify it.

Don't look at me. I'm persona non grata at my local church since I suggested blinging up Mary when we were having the big crib figures repainted last year. All I suggested was a teeny-weeny itsy-bitsy band of something sparkly around her nice new blue cloak, not doing her like something straight outta Compton with hoop earrings and an "I ❤ Jesus" tattoo on her hand.:rolleyes: Anyway two priests loved the idea and thought Mary deserves a subtle bit of shiny stuff, her being the mother of Jesus and having just given birth in a dingy stable and all. But the boss priest said no and now glares at me every chance he gets.
Anyway I think she needs to be a "Blessed"(as in Blessed Meghan) before being considered for Sainthood. Oh and she needs a few miracles attributed to her. I don't think turning jolly old haz into a sour bitter bleep overnight counts, amazing as it is.

I’ve a friend in bookselling and they tell me that FF is no 1 bestseller this week.

The only consolation is just because everyone bought it, doesn’t mean they suddenly like them. It means more people know what fuckwits they are.

I had/have no intention of buying it but I gotta say it sounds like comic genius so I'll be watching out for it second hand and might buy it that way for some shits n giggles.
I think the scorching reviews on how awful it is will drum up interest. As you say, it's no indication of their popularity.
