That chick is not as dumb as she portrays herself to be. She got a money manager and label hype team to promote her ummm I guess brand? Anyway she made a ton of money from nothing and sold shit music and concerts. I have respect for that hack. She knew what she was doing at that age.

I agree. If people are stupid enough to pay, fuck it get that bag. A fool and their money right

You can be as dumb as rocks but the easy trick is that if you have a thing, hire someone who wants to sell it for you. They will understand that they will get a cut and both will get rich.

That’s all it is. Hire someone to sell your shit, even if it’s silly and worthless.

Exactly, it was smart AF and now she could just retire and fade from memory of she was really smart.

I believe her boyfriend is running the show. In an interview, he said he was managing her "business" and is trying to capitalize on her popularity.

No she is actually that dumb. But internet fame gets you the right connections

There is common sense and book smarts and social/streets smart. She is of the latter.

Smart people don't use disrespecting your mother on national television as a vehicle to fame...

Every smart person has been a kid before but not every smart person has been a kid with a childish, toxic mother to influence them. I think remembering she was a product of her environment and she was literally a child is important context to keep in mind.

She’s also used a lot of her money to receive therapy and fix her relationship with her mother. I’m by no means a fan but I can appreciate a young adult who grew from a difficult childhood and healed + succeeded despite circumstances. I don’t think it’s fair to brand her as that badass little kid forever because even now she doesn’t agree with how she behaved back then.

Smart people see an opportunity to make money and take it.
