Out of the hundreds of videos I've done in my little internet life, this is still my absolute, number one favorite.
Funny she chose to Tweet this, filmed by [REDACTED], that poor bastard, after putting up iJustine's little music video a few hours earlier. "SEE EVERYONE!! I CAN'T DO IT TOO!!! AND I AM HOTTER!!! I AM SO SKINNY AND HOT HERE!!!!"
EDS note: I have tried many times to watch this through to the end. It is so cringingly embarrassing, so painful to watch for even one minute, that I have never been able to get there.
If this is supposed to compare to Justine, then it's an epic FAIL.
ReplyDeleteI'm not all that familiar with Justine, but from what I do know, she is smart, likable, doesn't plaster on the makeup, acts age-appropriate and actually provides a useful service.
Julia's favorite video of herself (aren't they all her favorite, as long as she's in them?) is actually quite sad. I see a very insecure woman who is desperately trying to cling onto her youth, but instead highlights that she's aging poorly.
I actually really liked this video when I first saw it over a year ago. Julia seemed silly yet fun, looked beautiful, and the setting was amazing. But her comparing HER style of goofy amatuerish home videos to iJustine's slick professional ones is ridiculous; like apples and oranges.
ReplyDeleteJustine is famous online for obvious reasons: she's stylish, cute, and just goofy enough to be interesting and relatable without being over the top a'la Julia. Plus, she works hard and keeps her audiance engaged with her research on various products and adventures that prove she has some pretty good connections. I think it's pretty brilliant how she manages to somehow keep her persona and her website extremely professional yet still maintains a good personality that shines through, even when she's obviously whoring out great products.
And get this: iJustine gets PAID extremely well to market those products, unlike JA who seems to act as though she's somehow so above being paid to market products. She'll just never learn the "business" of this career she wants so desperately, will she?
What is that weird bump in the lower abdomen region she's trying to cover with that child's float toy? Some monstrous belly button ring? Remote switch? Battery pack?
ReplyDeletelmao She's silly to even try to act like she's above above it. She's said in interviews HERSELF that her plan for ns was for them to be promoting products and things (events, as an excuse to borrow dresses and photograph herself) they liked through deals with companies. There's nothing wrong with what Justine does. If Julia envys you she'll either suck up to you or, particularly in the case of competition as with Justine, she'll get nasty in a not-so-cleverly underhanded way. Think about her foolishness with Obama girl who, surprise surprise, she's in a photo with not too long after her tirade.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, Justine's gig is just like a customer who enjoys a product or line of products and decides to start selling stuff for the company, assuming they have a program like that. Since you actually use and have faith in the product, you have no problem spreading the word about it and can do so without feeling ashamed about it or even being too pushy because you genuinely enjoy it. As a bonus, becoming a salesperson means product you might even use is just a business expense or you can arrange the benefits of purchasing it to come back to you. It's actually a smart and not entirely hard thing to do, Julia just sucks at it and is trying to do it on a huge scale with big name companies but failing miserably. Someone brought up the Kodak CES sponsorship and her twittering and blogging about losing her Canon camera. Smart things like this, really. Also, I don't think Justine has a trail of her entire history strewn far and wide on the net with which anyone could deny her an opportunity. With Julia, I'm surprised she still keeps up her old blog entries from years ago. Not smart if this is the gig she's seriously striving for.
has it been noted here that mary misspelled "jules" as "jues" in the exrecise trainer post?
ReplyDeleteJUES LIVES.
For Julia - this is what Heaven looks like. With all the angels just watching her, her, HER.
ReplyDelete"Maybe he's right. Maybe there is something the matter with me.".
ReplyDeleteStay with that thought Julia, think it through ...
Talk about ruining a childhood memory. There's something vaguely obscene about Julia Baugher impersonating Ariel, taking a sweet character and trying to turn her into a kiddie porn fantasy. Pass the vomit bag!
ReplyDeleteTo give credit where it's due, she looks goregous here. Her swimsuit was flattering, and her hair and makeup actually looked natural. It's so sad to see how she destroyed her looks in such a short time.
ReplyDeleteThat being said, for someone who allegedly danced for years, Julia has about as much physical grace as an elephant. She has no concept of how to use her body effectively, and seems to think that unnatural arm flailing constitutes actual presence.
She has gained about 30 pounds in her legs alone since this was shot.
ReplyDeleteAnd she wonders why she breaks and loses her gadgets so often. Water = bad for ipods, cell phones, laptops, etc. She has absolutely no regard for her gadgets. She knows someone will either give her or buy her a new one.
ReplyDeleteJustine plasters on plenty of makeup.
ReplyDeleteI'll never understand these lip dubs. She looks like a jackass. I still don't get how anyone takes this person seriously.
ReplyDeleteWhy she didn't major in drama and just go into acting, I will never understand. That's really what she is -- an actress on the wrong stage.
ReplyDeleteIt's not too late. She could get some "pudgy best friend of the lead character" roles at this point.
because acting would take talent, she couldn't really break any rules to get ahead there (well, you know, she wouldn't.. none of that casting couch business for miss chastity belt), and she wouldn't be able to handle the constant rejection. she really swore the internet would give her total control... faaaail w h a l e.
ReplyDeleteshe's covering her legs. the girl knows all her "bad" and "good" parts down to a T
ReplyDeleteHer legs (especially lately) are the exact same ones my Irish chain-smoking cop grandfather had (before he passed on). He had a funny walk with those bows...
In this photo she isn't covering anything. There was a bikini shot of her posted back when this blog first started and she had a stunning body from head to toe. The covering of her lower parts started in the past year. before that she was wearing hip hugging clothes all. the. time. The weight gain was first noticeable in a photo of her at some intern's graduation. That was last June or July. She let this go on for a good long time.
ReplyDeleteShe is so much fatter now. Sad.
ReplyDeleteall of these trainwreck lipdups give me the same embarrassed, uncomfortable feeling. can you imagine being near her when these are being filmed?! i dont know if i could even DEAL with the embarrassment i would feel towards her. she is a grown woman masquerading as a 7 year old. even at 7, i was cooler than this. wow. just, wow.
ReplyDeleteI don't care if I was asked to hold the camera for effing SI Swimsuit Model Marrissa Miller, I could stand about ten seconds of that vapid display of BS. "Um, honey, could you hold the camera while I vamp and pretend I'm a Broadway showgirl?" WTF? As little respect I have for this woman, I have even less for the fool holding the camera and indulging her. Yet she gets people to do this time and time again. JAB--you are an embarrassment.
ReplyDeleteJessica--the feeling the lipdubs give you has a clinical name: the retarded tingles, or RTs for short.
ReplyDeleteI have a 6 and 9 year old staying at my house. They watched, in horror, at a grown up prancing around to a Disney tune. They kept asking me, "Is she a kid or an adult?"
ReplyDeletemary's new blog morethanmary.tumblr.com now connects directly to her ns site. is she not really leaving ns?
ReplyDeleteI'm starting to think she is staying on board. She has many projects lined up and some of them aren't just TMI related but NS related, as well. Also, Adrien is now part of the TMI team. Either JA floated a tip meant to spike page views OR MR changed her mind.
ReplyDeleteMary and Adrien will be the new Karen Walker and Beverly Lesley from Will & Grace.
ReplyDeleteSo wait %63,000 per year now split between:
ReplyDelete-Mr A
-Megan the producer
-Mary Rambin
-Meghanaise
-Team Slut Julia
that is $12,000 per person per year..
Epic Fail
Anonymous 12.37 yeah but Justine doesn't look like a tranny.
ReplyDeleteAwww... I'm no Julia fan myself nowdays, but I do still like this video. It was the video that MADE me a fan. (Meeting her was what made me NOT a fan.)
ReplyDeleteNot going to lie, the posts and comments in the last two days have taken a NOSE DIVE.
ReplyDeleteWhat's up RBNS?
@ anon 6:50
ReplyDeleteNose dive? This is part and parcel of parsing a nutbag who puts all her transparent nutbaggery out there for all too see.
she is ridiculous and, I fear, quite mentally unstable.
And, she has no one to take her lovingly and sternly aside and get her to straighten out.
We are doing our best as a humble Greek chorus.
We are her only hope. Her Obi wan Kenobi.
Godspeed.

ReplyDeleteWhat happened? Certain people who used to post under multiple usernames/anonymously realized they couldn't play their reindeer games here any more.
ReplyDeleteJesus Fuck! How can you criticize RBNS content/comments when Jackles is posting this motherfucking bullshit:
ReplyDeleteOkay, I’ve never claimed to be a Martha Stewart type, but I *do* have an organizing/clean fanatic streak. The key word there is streak. (It sort of waxes and wanes depending upon how overwhelmed I feel.)
Since I’m going through this Spring Cleaning purge at my apartment, I thought I would ask you a few of the domestic questions that have popped up:
1) What’s the best way of cleaning hardwood floors? Up until now, I’ve been using a Swifter, but A) I don’t think it’s very effective and B) most importantly, I don’t think the chemicals are good for Lilly to walk on/lick (Yes, she licks the floor randomly. Also, sometimes the wall. It’s really weird. Puppy acid-trip or something.) I want to get a mop, but then would I have to get a bucket? I really don’t have a lot of room for that! Hmm. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
2) Do you clean your washer/dryer? I’ve read in magazines before that some people do this. Common sense seems to indicate that cleaning a cleaning agent is superfluous, but then again, I swear I’ve seen something about needing to disinfect it or something along those lines? True? False? How does one do this if true? Does it involve vinegar? Everything seems to involve vinegar.
And on and on and on and on.
WTF!?
This gal is fucked up.
ReplyDeleteDoes she know how to use the internet?
ReplyDeletedoes she not have a single thought that she must throw out to get an answer or validation?
Is she ever freaking QUIET?
How does she not know how to clean or cook (anything!) at her age?
She's an asshole.
Murphy's Oil Soap. Sink. I don't know. SHUT THE FUCK UP!
ReplyDeleteYou're killing me, Someprobs! "sink. I don't know. shut the fuck." I hope she hears your message. It's succinct and answers all her questions.
