The PJs and knickers thing is just so weird

That Pandy and Bella interview is so weird. It’s a bit TMI.

"what is your first knicker memory"

I guess a paycheck's a paycheck!

Wonder how much the graphic designer got paid to knock that out. Such a gross shade of pink too.

It’s a garish shade of pink. The pjs are the same horrible shade, and they cost £95

I can't stop refreshing their Twitter waiting for an update! The replies are so funny even though everyone is raging!

Indeed. And thongs all the time, so bad for you!

 

[skyehigh]

I wonder if it's a deliberate ploy for publicity as SURELY they knew it was an awful idea?

No one will want to touch the Women's Prize. I haven't seen any big authors, PRs or publishers talking about it. Only one I've seen mention it is Otegha (OF COURSE lol)

Not being paid by Stripe & Stare to talk to Pandora about her UNDERCRACKERS then?! And no, Panda, absolutely no one has used that term since about 2001.

 

[Love_hate_small_town]

What a load of word salad.

I can translate that for you-

It will go to a rich girl start up and they’ll do a book talk lunch. Fin

She has a thread but Candice bloody Brathwaite can join

 

[jenmarks]

Jesus H

 

[BanditHealer]

She didn't come up with hungry bum, I feel like they've said that to increase engagement so people correct them. It's such a commonly used phrase.

Well she didn’t invent hungry bum for a start, I’ve heard that many times about underwear that keeps riding up

At least bloody Hannah isn’t piggybacking on it we’d have to hear about all her vintage pairs, the pair she lost her virginity in and pairs with loads of rambling back stories

1. They can’t even spell Pandora Sykes- so much for a feted ambassador, the team obvs don’t care enough to do their research
2. So the four pairs that define these ‘inspirational’ women are the same plain pairs in different colours? Think I’ll give the blog a miss..
