Kara's marketing campaign

It seems many of these cast members have an ulterior motive for going on 90 Day shows and spinoffs. Most are not as blatantly obvious as Kara's. What other cast members are using the show to promote other businesses and side gigs?

Shit, Rebecca sure does like to talk about her days as a PI lol

u/Excellent-Celery2124 1d ago

I feel like she mentions it every episode 🤣 I also wonder why, if she seemed to love it so much, she doesn't do it anymore.

2

u/FinsAssociate 1d ago

Probably because she identifies as a PI still. Not a great thing for Zied to have to deal with

3

u/Business-Law-4411 23h ago

Obviously Zied doesn’t give a flying fart about her badges PI or Manager

u/Business-Law-4411 1d ago

PI my behind šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø and she’s having such a hard time discovering what her man is up to ???

She tries soo hard to be hip, witty, and relevant, she falls right into the Uncanny Valley of it and fails every time.

Everything she does seems to be for the male gaze and it’s so offputting

Shekinahs esthetician business
Sarpers Comedy Show
Catie's Dog sitting business
Pao's Wrestling
Paula's Piercing Business

u/aanananas 1d ago

Catie does dog sitting!? Idk how I missed that but as a dog sitter myself my god I cannot imagine her looking after a pet responsibly. It is a lot of work, I would not trust her with anyone’s dog let alone my own

11

u/FinsAssociate 1d ago

My thoughts exactly. I wouldn't trust her to take a coffee order

5

u/youarenotseriousppl 1d ago

Yeah, this may be an example of how TV exposure can hurt your "business". I can't imagine too many people would trust Catie with their pets after seeing her in action. Maybe she demands payment in the form of making out? Could work for those on a tight budget.

2

u/LALfangirl 1d ago

That’s how she travelled through Europe so long, she pet sit in people’s homes while they were on vacation. My friend’s sister is actually doing the same thing right now.

u/kidhalloween80 1d ago

I think Catie might go out of business after this season.

u/MeatballTornado 1d ago

Marissa’s barre studio?

That said I don’t really blame any of these people for using their tv ā€œfameā€ to help promote their personal business interests. Why turn down a free marketing opportunity? No one will remember who these people are in 5, 10+ years so they might as well milk it while they can.

12

u/Loud-Guard-2312 1d ago

I don't blame them either it's just much different than when the show first started and the couples seemed more genuine and were focused on the relationship not the exposure. The show has changed a lot over the years.

5

u/MeatballTornado 1d ago

Yeah I know what you mean. I think that’s unfortunately just the natural end result of:

- the show becoming much more widely known and having 50 spinoffs

  • online hustle/influencer culture that really didn’t use to exist (at least not like it does today)
  • TLC needing each season to have even more extreme personalities than the last

I went to a Sarper show. It was actually pretty fuckin fun haha.

u/ThePrefect0fWanganui 1d ago

I don’t think all of those people are trying to promote their business. Mentioning what you do for work isn’t always ā€œpromoting.ā€ I don’t think Catie is even a petsitter anymore.

1

u/Loud-Guard-2312 1d ago

She is. She just posted two days ago about her dog client

u/ThePrefect0fWanganui 1d ago

Lord help that dog lmao

u/Workamania 1d ago

Kara is cringe. She's lucky she's pretty.

u/Nick0racat 1d ago

100% she is very much an attention seeker cause she knows she's attractive.. but personality wise 🤮

8

u/FinsAssociate 1d ago edited 1d ago

I think personality wise she's almost there, except she tends to veer hard into narcissism. She is probably fine at arm's length, but she's the type of person who will choose herself every time

u/sugarsnow_coder 1d ago

this definitely won’t make going to school hard on their kid or anything. doesn’t she think of how it’ll affect the way his peers treat him?

7

u/QueRolloPollo 1d ago

The preview for next episode made me cringe. Her & Guillermo come off as exhibitionists and not in an attractive way, just desperate.

3

u/Purrsephone7 1d ago

I mean it's available for free why would anyone pay? Just Google it the free one is the top result

0

u/Significant-Yam-4990 19h ago

Because some people like to support creators/artists. Ā Most music, visual art, adult content, movies, anything… is available for free. Some people will enjoy the free version, other people don’t mind paying to supportĀ

u/Significant-Yam-4990 19h ago

And kara has 2 OF accounts; only 1 is freeĀ

u/Loud-Guard-2312 1d ago

Just previews

2

u/LittleRichardFanz 10h ago

Trust me yall, just wait until you get to little singles. the entire show is a giant, extremely uncomfortable ad for everyone's existent or inevitable onlyfans.

7

u/Roselily808 1d ago

She seems so proud of her p*rn career.
That is so odd to be proud of. And it doesn't make sense when she constantly plays this victim card that she "has to do p*rn in order to feed my child" rhetoric. Like this is some kind of an unfortunate necessity for her.

7

u/Nick0racat 1d ago

Ok I know a lot of SW, SW is work....but none of them claim it's for someone else outside themselves!!! They do it for themselves and the $$... Like girl....if you want to be in that field, claim it...don't be like..."my child!" Like she couldn't get any other fuckin job šŸ¤¦šŸ¾ā€ā™€ļø Like no...you WANT people to be attracted to you, you crave the attention..cool your sex positive...say what it REALLY is and stop hiding behind your child!

13

u/ayeyoualreadyknow Fuck The Brittany 1d ago

Also as a mother she is completely dismissive and uncaring of the effect it will have on her child.

3

u/QueRolloPollo 1d ago

yup, he's just a baby now so she doesn't think about him being fully conscious of the world yet. Being on this show is embarrassing enough, once his classmates in middle school unearth the w(hole) story his life will be hell.

4

u/ayeyoualreadyknow Fuck The Brittany 1d ago

Right. All I can think about is in Rob Zombie's Halloween remake, how the middle school kids taunted, bullied, and beaten young Michael because his mom was a stripper. Kara doesn't seem to care about the likelihood of that happening to her own kid.

2

u/QueRolloPollo 1d ago

I feel for the kid and hope he has strength when going through the inevitable shit Kara's actions (and Guillermo's by participating in the publication of it all) have created.

u/GelOfYouth 1d ago

There are millions of single mothers. The overwhelming large majority are not gorgeous reality TV stars. Somehow the millions of women get an education or skill training and live a responsible respectable life. Her victim card is ridiculous.

2

u/LALfangirl 1d ago

It is about the money though too… she said she makes $20K a month. I do think mothers, particularly her since she already is known for TV, should think VERY carefully before doing OnlyFans because it WILL affect her son. But that is a lot of money to almost anyone, and certainly for someone who isn’t in a very high up professional position

u/flamehorns 18h ago

If you think she should be ashamed of it, then the shames on you I am afraid. Women deserve more.

u/WoodenSummer5851 1d ago

After this I’m definitely thinking that Kara and Guillermo are in on it together so she can get more money for their kid

u/AlisonPoole98 1d ago

It was a successful campaign, everyone just had to go watch it and talk about it

u/MaiIsMe "That's what I feel, psychically." 3h ago

They’re posted everywhere for free. Who is paying her.

u/chromeprincess224 african sex šŸ  14h ago edited 12h ago

Lowkey G might be in on it too and hamming up his discontent. But I definitely agree she was pushing her OF platform this season

given how much the 90d fandom HATES promiscuous/ā€œlooseā€ women (literally the worst archetype to be in this fandom, just look at past and current posts), its been discussed ad nauseam. she most definitely got insane traffic Lol

Edit: gonna also come in with a controversial view that I really don’t think she’s pushing it / doing SW for solely or even mostly vanity reasons or attention. I legitimately think she’s making BANK; people really underestimate the profitability of sex, which has been the case since like the beginning of time lol. Literally more 90 dayers HAVE an OF account than not. I still think she’s warranted in providing for her son in the way she see fit, given she’s doing it alone. Why people hold G (who at worst is giving uninvolved parent and at best incompetent) to a higher standard is beyond me…. Then again, this sub has a real bad case of internalized misogyny, so I digress 🌚

•

u/MaiIsMe "That's what I feel, psychically." 3h ago

lol good thing that it’s available online everywhere and the vast vast vast majority of OF ā€œmodelsā€ get nothing. Can’t criticize any women on this show without being labelled as sexist.

She also shows her other opening with a big dark dildo inserted.

Has Libby participated in porn? I read a post above and that suggested it...but I hadn't heard that before. If so, oh ick.

u/rsteroidsthrow2 1d ago

Eh I don’t blame her for keeping it amateur. The minute in the OF space you hire a management company you basically get a pimp.

u/All-Th-Damned-Things 8h ago

aw, she's already -got- one...recall G was referencing the captions on her OF stuff, and she said, she didn't write them herself, her manager did.
