Janelle Brown: Smarter Than Your Average Brown (Maybe)

[CalicoKitty]

What is the deal with children falling asleep with things hanging out their mouths (see Jessa Duggar), and not only not removing the item, but posting a picture?  I can't tell what is in Evy's mouth, but choking is no joke.

I think it's one of the doll's hair that looks like it's in her mouth.  But the hair is resting on her chin.

Janelle and Christine have a competition  going. They’re  telling Plexus users to choose one of them to encourage them through their journey. This is for current customers and those who buy a starter pack. Tough choice. 🤣
 

 

Quoting myself to show what Christine posted about the “teams”:

Huh?

Janelle is working out "alot" or she's helping others work out "alot?"  Christine is doing "something Active?"  Like what?  And she's just "beginning on the product" but she's in a competition with Janelle, who has been shilling the stuff for awhile now?  I guess I'm glad that Christine is drinking water, I suppose that dilutes the concentration of the Plexus crap she's been swigging...but if it weren't for the fact that most of the words are spelled correctly, I'd think this was written by Mykelti.  That's quite the word salad.

"Interesting piece of marketing!"  So, if you start on Plexus and work out a lot, you'll probably lose weight. Hmm...I'd say there is a fair chance of losing weight when you don't drink Plexus and do proper work outs.

And Christine is selling Plexus but is just active and drinking water? Why aren't you drinking your own poisonous medicine if it's so amazing?

ok here’s my interpretation of “Christine speak” 😋

“Active” is a Plexus product that you drink.

Janelle is “working out a lot” and helping others to get to the next level with Plexus.

Christine is “doing something” (not working out a lot like Janelle) and drinking “Active” 

Maddie drinks “Active” for energy and she also drinks a product called “Slim” to kill her appetite.

Christine has also mentioned using "Plexus Hunger Control" and "Plexus Lean" (a whey-based meal replacement shake).  Who needs food when you can drink all day and do nothing to change your lifestyle? (sarc)

Hmmm, plating still needs some work, but that actually looks good. Not a bad sear on the scallops, I'd eat that...

As much as I snark on J, that is a nice pitchur. It really would make complete sense for Janelle to move to NC. She could find a small house close by and feed those little tykes canned cabbage as much as she wanted. Also, her and Maddie can shill that poison in plastic together, heck maybe even throw Tupperware parties. I would think NC has better weather to grow her veggies she just throws in her pot and serves on chipped plates for her new venture of farm or can to table restaurant. 

Can-to-table!!!  Perfect description of Janelle’s meals.

LOL, this is Janelle we are talking about. She's possibly never even heard of feta! The tomatoes would have added a pop of color but doubt Janelle would have thought of that.  Garlicky spinach and scallops with a toasted crostini would be just fine for me. 

This is the closest that Janelle has come to an edible recipe that she has posted!!

Happy Monday!! If you’re already exhausted & wishing it was the weekend, maybe it’s time to change things up. 🙌🏻
A balanced body promotes steady natural energy, mental clarity, better sleep, better mood, and more control when it comes to cravings and appetite… which all adds up to more motivation and a healthier outlook on life. And’s that’s the power of my little pink drink alone! I like to mix it with my collagen and all-natural energy drink. Literally brings me back to life!

seriously I don’t think she’s lost anything, in fact she looks larger, especially her gut it’s huge

[Kbo]

That’s a really nice picture of Maddie, aside from the dildo bottle full of Plexus. 

[Irate Panda]

You know I really don’t care that any of the Browns are fat by why are so many of them pushing shit that supposedly helps with cravings and appetite? They all seem to be getting larger by the second.  I get the shill aspect but why this product, aren’t there tons of other crappy products that would be somewhat believable for her (them)? 

If Janelle wants to shill nonsense why doesn’t she find some mlm shit about “finances” since she’s the “family accountant”.  I want to know how you can all have multiple bankruptcies and still afford million dollars homes, plague-filled dirt patches, and rent every moving truck in the state of Arizona for years.  Janelle can give both sides of the story: how to keep your sometime dinner companion livin’ large with Top Ramen weaves as he’s banging’ his lantern-jawed Precious Moments loving eye booger wife, yet still find the time and money to fish out of the drainage ditch on your dirt patch, while buying 50 pounds of canned cabbage.  Janelle proudly presents- BROWN FAMILY FINANCES: Lots of Bills, but Zero Sense Cents

As with many MLMs, the company makes extravagant claims about brand ambassadors’ profit-making capability. However, according to the Plexus website, the average brand ambassador made just $544 over the year in 2020 (1).

What’s going on with Maddie’s hair? She said she was going blonder and had a picture recently of her lighter hair. Did she give up the process? Her hair would look better lighter given she’s blonde naturally (and has a nice shade people pay hundreds of $$ for).

Janelle has a cute haircut. It’s nice and doesn’t look like a “Karen” haircut (the type of cut commonly seen on older women that screams “I want to see your manager”).

Autocorrect was wrong. AGAIN.

They would make more than $544 a year if they sold sex toys. Those plexus bottles do look like a sex toy. 
 

 

[Mahamid Frauded Me]

Are those bottles their "fake" ones? Like back in the day you go to a restaurant and they would wheel out the dessert cart with the plastic looking desserts you could chose from? All the photos of them with the poison in plastic look to be the same amount that is always gone. How are they making any money if they claim to drink this crap all day long, I assume they get it at cost, but they still are a few dollars a bottle

Must be an interesting side-effect of the poisonous Plexus...

Maddie's tube o' Plexus looks like bloody Mary mix - meanwhile, I can smell that sharp, disinfectant-level sweetness radiating off of the pink crap in Janelle's bottle from here.

It's lovely that they work together motivating each other....but what are they actually doing besides taking pictures of themselves NOT drinking the poison and going on retreats?  Do they take turns calling their downline and berating them for not shilling hard enough?

Cooking with JUST Janelle.

Ingredients: a can opener and an assortment of canned goods.

Step one: Heat can contents in pans on the stove.

Step two: Sit down for a while.

Step three: Hit the drive-thru when everything goes to hell, or is too foreign for the tastebuds.

Pitchur this,

They are both sitting around Maddie's kitchen table, using their burner phones to contact their downline into hustling more to sell their swamp water and all I see is this

I knew a lady once who worked full time in health care.  One day she cautiously, revealed to me that she and her husband made their real income from their home business of selling adult toys!  I was shocked. Lol I would never have expected that.  She said she made much more in the side business.  I guess she worked the job for benefits.  They had a couple of kids.

Say what you like about Janelle, but to me she always seemed to consider her kids' future and encouraged them to find their own paths as young adults. So, I'm very hopeful that Savanah is not going to end up as the spinster-care taking- youngest daughter looking after mom. Janelle simply doesn't seem the type of person to let that happen.

Of all the sister wives, she has always been the most independent and not afraid to work. And it seems that she's managed to pass this on to (most of) her kids (apart from Maddie, but she was Kody's baby after all)

Now, had Savanah been Robyn's, then I would have started to worry a long time ago. She would have ended up as a full time carer for mom with no life of her own. Fortunately, this job now goes to AuROARa, which is probably a good thing as it will save a guy from a disastrous plural marriage to both her and dear mommy in law!

I will say that Janelle has raised some kick-ass kids - even Maddie, who shills for MLM's in her spare time, is supposedly going to school (although I don't remember what she's going for anymore).

What bugs me about Janelle is that she worked outside the home and seemed to love going to an office every day and having a reliable job with benefits, etc.  I don't understand her reluctance to give that another try.  Maybe I'm naïve and her Z-list star power is enough for her to make a decent living from Plexus and whatever she makes from the show, but she's in her 50's and I can't imagine Kody hasn't gotten his gel-stained hands on anything Janelle might've had saved in a 401K or retirement plan to meet his own goals of building Fort Knox on Coyote Pass.  After all, Janelle's inheritance money bought the house in Lehi.  At this point in her life, she's got one almost grown daughter at home and a very part-time husband - it seems like the perfect time for her to go back to work and put money away that Kody (and Robyn) can't get their grubby hands on.  

The fact that she shills Plexus and is supposedly a "health coach," when it seems pretty obvious that neither is making a difference in her own weight, borders on ridiculous.  She's a lousy spokesperson when we never see her own results of doing the things she claims are life-changing.  Why not ditch the MLM game and find even a part-time job that pays a reliable salary?

THIS, and I’ve been wondering the same for years. Janelle seems incapable of losing a substantial amount of weight without a coach of her own pushing her — I don’t know how she’s getting paying customers. I’d be like,  “Uh, this doesn’t seem to actually work why should anyone pay for it?”

Once the show is over and her celebrity status has faded, I hope she has a backup plan — who’s gonna want to pay for weight loss advice from an obese person? That would be like going to a nursery to buy plants and they’re all brown and dead. If you can’t demonstrate success, you have no business being in said business.

Escaping chaos would have been a big part of it but I also think Janelle assessed her position in the pecking order and realized the only way she could gain recognition and admiration from Kody would be by contributing to the family coffers as well as reproducing at every opportunity. 

She sold herself short.  She went after Kody with a vengeance based on his physical appearance rather than qualities that would have made for a loving, appreciative husband and father.

Well, that womb's closed now, the coffers are emptied faster than anyone could possibly fill them, so those options to win Kody's favour have gone out of the window.

But...she can offer him no drama, peace of mind and conversations on an equal level. I can see how those things appeal to someone when you get older. (I've certainly learned to appreciate this over the years!)
