    A 3 second sex joke is no one’s best contribution to the world.

        It really won’t. No one is defined by a simple innocent joke they made one time. Saying it does is an insult to everything they’ve accomplished and gone through in life.

          I mean shes the one making it her entire personality, and attempting to publicize and monetize it as much as possible. Its not like a cruel nickname pushed on her by the media, she’s actively making it her brand/identity.

            You can still call her by her name. You don’t default calling Hugh Jackman “Wolverine” just because it was such a massive part of his acting career and the reason he is so famous.

              I dont want to know her name. I literally could not care less, until she does something worthwhile. For that matter, i wouldnt even ever refer to her as ‘hawk tuah’ if we werent having this conversation because shes really not worth talking about except to crtiticize her desperate attention seeking behaviour.

                  She gave a three second interview that went viral, that shes now desperately trying to spin into merch, tv interviews, a podcast, and whatever else she can attach the ‘hawk tuah’ brand to. Thats pretty desperate. Shes like the new ‘cash me ousside’ girl, and i think its a gross side effect of our media and celebrity obsession that we shouldnt be glorifying or even humoring.

                    By your definition, virtually every internet personality is a desperate attention seeker. If you want to see it that way then sure. But she’s been using her fame to actually do some good like donate to charity. She even acknowledges she’s just getting her 15 minutes of fame and wants to use it for something good. I’m not saying she’s perfect and I haven’t really been following her myself but you should at least acknowledge stuff like this.

                    The video caption read: “If I only have 15 minutes of fame then I’m going to spend every last minute of it doing the right thing. Let’s try and find a home for these sweet lil cats & dogs”, she wrote. “Please head over to @mjasvolunteerorganization to get started!”
