Remember when famous people were talented, or had mastered some particular skill, be that in the arts or industry?

Now it seems the only qualifying criteria for making flipping great wodges of cash is to have duck lips, a plunging neckline and a famous relative.

You don’t even need the relative

Duck lips is a bit unfair...

Seems like a supportive sister who might want to (and why wouldn't you?) take advantage of her brother's fame to achieve her own success.
People have been doing that for donkeys years.

Remember when newspapers didn't write articles specifically to incite impotent, boring men to attack women for being good looking?

Success as what though!?

Obviously not aimed at a forty something bloke like me, but I just can’t get my head around everyone under a certain age gobbling up everything and everything on Tik Tok, Instagram and the like.

It creates a world of envy, must have this, can’t be seen without that and it appears to be available to everyone, when it’s not. There will be winners but I see there being a lot more losers.

The world has gone mad for everything being online (he says posting online). Get off your arse and do something, go watch football, play football, not watch tossers playing bloody FIFA!

Apart from the famous relative, you've described perfectly the average male bstards supporter.

No comment.

I'd say she'd be more brain dead if she didn't milk what she can for as little work as possible
Good on her!

For a lot of people success is just measured by the amount of money or fame they get. I mean, that might not even be what Luke Littler's sister's bothered about but if it's an easier ride than having a normal job/career then why wouldn't you go for it. As I said, people have used their friends and families to work their way up since day dot.
I like watching a guy play Gran Turismo on YouTube, he makes a living out of doing that, but watching that's no different to me watching something on Sky or Netflix. I agree though, some people spend their lives in a cycle of fast content like TikTok or Instagram, and some of that content is bizarre, it's just the age we live in.

I couldn't give a shite as long as it's not my money they're chucking at her.

‘Express reader furious over something that hasn’t happened yet…’

The word has become very . Believe, achieve , receive ... manifest , self love self care ...

which if used correctly can work ... but too many people this day and age are taking the fake it till you make it option and prying on people that want what they 'have'... you don't see the failures of this system but most do fail and only the ones that make it shove it down you faces for a new batch of people to try there luck only to be dissapointed and sometimes be left in financial ruin.

That said, everything that is going on in the world, especially Z list celebrities .... old fashioned hard work and dedication is enough to be a success in this world

Just don't spend your time looking at people living lies on the internet
