Sunbeamsjess #5 never consistent, always disappears, renovates a house for 4+ years

There's something so insidious about a free blowdry for a children's cancer fundraiser. I hope she made her own donation.

I thought that! Did she not need to declare it was PR gifted? Etc

She's always terrible at declaring at ads/PR but this one in particular has really annoyed me!

I don’t understand this campaign. How is a child with cancer supposed to understand that an influencer/celeb posing with their bouncy blow dry is to raise awareness about the illness? There are so many cancer patients and survivors who post their journey on Insta, TikTok etc. why not work with them & wig installation specialists?

Edit: I also see Jess’ second post is hashtagged #chopchop ??? Is this the official hashtag of the campaign, I can’t see anything when I click in. But she hasn’t ‘chopped’ her hair she’s been treated to a blowdry. This has rubbed me up so wrong.

It's almost like they're rubbing it in the poor children's faces. Vile.

I understood that she paid for the blow dry and the money goes to the charity, but reading the comments seems that she was paid with a blow dry for an AD to promote the charity campain? I'm confused

I really don't think she'd be coming onto Instagram to thank them if she paid herself. This is the same Jess who said a haircut wasn't in her budget

 

[eelaii]

Isn't a glamorous blowdry kind of tactless for cancer charity? A haircut if you do a massive chop to make into a wig makes more sense.

Also, Jess would need five hours to prepare if she ever would volunteer to read to kids. With a shower, makeup, choosing an outfit, accessorizing, getting Zak to fetch her coffee just to read for 15 minutes because kids' attention span only lasts that long. Then there is the trek back home, taking off the makeup, accessories, second shower and making herself another cup ramen, her day would be gone for 15 minutes of work!

Sorry to go back to old comments but the nanny thing completely stopped me in my tracks. I used to be able to gloss over the privilege because I do really enjoy the book content but this really just confirmed to me that these people are on another planet and no matter how hard they try they cannot be relatable. Such a shame because she’s such a smart woman with loads of potential but this is just too weird

It’s actually getting mildly concerning tbh - all she does is talk about how tired she is, how out of a routine she is, how if she does x, y and z (which usually includes buying more stuff), she will be “back on track”. It’s actually exhausting to watch. it’s just mindless consuming, consumption consumption consumption, stuff stuff stuff. So bizarre that she waxes lyrical about all these radical, anticapitalist works, and tells us she voted for Jeremy Corbyn etc, meanwhile she’s trapped in her own little late stage capitalist hell of stuff and more stuff, making a career out of flogging this lifestyle to others. Very insidious and very bleak.

The comment about her not having a buget for haircut sounds to me like she is fishing for more sponsors and now she does an ad for that campaign!?

This comment totally nailed it. She makes it sound like she's training for an IronMan and actually she's just trying to convince herself to go up ALLLLLL THE STAIRSSSSSSSS and sit on an exercise bike for 20 minutes. Moving those books could definitely be a task that takes most of a day or a good chunk of a couple days, but to her it's an overwhelming "project" for the entire month. I think for her next book club she should do The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up.

She is too busy doing WHAT that she didn’t upload anymore? Why announce she will do vlogtober and then procedes to disappoint her audience every single year since she moves back to London???? I’m really frustrated, should not expect this much of her

 

[Lola123]

She stated in the first one she was going to upload 5 times during the week so we’ll see if she sticks to that at all

 

[Pew]

The week is over, she did only three videos. She would have to upload saturday AND sunday to reach the five videos mark never!

Exactly, she hasn’t seemed to twig just how meaningless her life is…. convincing herself walking up STAIRS in her MANSION is arduous and limiting, while moving books from one floor to the another is a piece of taxing, important work that can only be achieved through full time childcare. Just waiting for “it’s been another one of *those* weeks, guys”. Please find purpose x

Wonder if she'll ever upload a September books video. Probably shouldn't hold my breath.

I can’t with this girl. It’s officially the 7th of October and she’s posted a whopping THREE vlogtobers. She even claimed she was getting a head start by pre filming before October - what a load of bull.

There is just no excuse, she even has a nanny for the child for gods sake despite her and Zac being at home and him supposedly being unemployed anyway. And anyway, pre Ines she was the same. She wouldn’t know consistency if it slapped her in the face

It’s very bizarre to be this sloth like especially as she’s now turning 30 and doesn’t appear to have any major mental or chronic illnesses. I know her family has money but it really does pain me to see somebody similar to my age who does the absolute bare minimum getting to sit back for years whilst her million pound london house gets renovated to the lavish taste she desires. I’m sure I’m not the only one here who has been working demanding 9-5 jobs all through their 20’s yet are still nowhere near able to purchase a nice home.

 

[Elyezabeth]

I actually do think she has some mental illness going on (and she's even hinted at suspecting the same for herself) but I don't think it fully explains how underachieving she is. She certainly has the means to ask her family for support and try to do something about it. I don't think it's insurmountable, she's just never been in a position where she was forced to work through it.

Honestly I have M.E and I would think it was that, except M.E (and any other chronic illness or mental illness) doesn’t pick and choose when you’re unwell. She acts like doing minor things is a big task, which it can be to us, but then she seems to have plenty energy for doing the nice things in life and spending most of her days reading. I’ve spent entire holidays and mini-breaks stuck in bed in the hotel room.
I’m sorry but she doesn’t have a chronic illness, or any mental illness beyond the fact that she has no purpose in her life and that’s probably slightly depressing.

Saying that, I actually did enjoy the most recent vlog lol.

Was the Hamnet event gifted?

If so, what a wasted opportunity giving it to someone who couldn't even be bothered to read the book.

Also side-eyeing the fact that she didn't know whether Shakespeare had lost any children.
