Althought the spelling is different, I wonder if they didn't get a lot "yeah, you've got knobs all over."

This is called "The Drapery Crossback Tee" on the site. The description is: "Grab a hold of this flowy 3.9-ounce double blended poly (70%) and rayon (30%) tee. This will sure grab the attention from others with the crossed back and dolman sleeves. "  The problem is she is too large for the garment to drape or flow. And I always thought a dolman sleeve was supposed to blouse at the shoulder and then taper down to the elbow or the wrist, usually the wrist.  Either this wasn't actually a dolman sleeve cut, or her arms are too big and are taking up all the material that should be blousing gracefully over the shoulder and on down.

Ketzel is totally right......I sew alot and that is NOT a dolman sleeve; it's just a sleeve. Also, the crossback needs to mostly  close and drape gracefully down the back side.  What Twit is modeling is an incredibly shitty design and sucky construction of a garment that DOES NOT FIT CORRRECTLY, because it is a CHEAP DESIGN which Twit did not check/edit/try on before it was made, so now she is stuck with this crap to sell.  It says "walmart weirdo meme" in the making.

A smaller top and wider bottom is easy to accommodate with a few darts below the breasts,   or a gathering of extra fabric under the breasts, which then allows the extra material to flow out and adequately  cover the larger stomach and hips. 

Twit's garage,  I mean dance studio,  is going to be full of this crap.

[abbey]

Is she truly so delusional that she thinks that top fits?  Are her followers so delusional that they will buy into that line of thinking and purchase this horrendous top?  If I was going to be pushing a line of clothing I sure as heck would make sure it was made to match the description and I would not be modeling something that didn't fit me and pretend that it was supposed to be that way. Reminds me of the emperor's new clothes fable.  He got called out by one of his subjects and hopefully Whitney will too. 

[AZChristian]

A dolman sleeve is defined as "a loose sleeve cut in one piece with the body of a garment."  In other words, most sleeves are cut independently of the shirt front and back and are "set in" to the hole left after the top seam and side seam of the garment are done; they are more challenging/expensive to make.  A dolman is just cut as part of the front and back, and sewed along the top and bottom.  

Regardless, the definition includes the word "loose."  So it looks like her sleeve is too tight, and totally loses the dolman effect.  This is how a short-sleeved dolman should look.

A while back one of you who cruise regularly noted that Kate Gosselin had to cancel her cruise due to lack of interest. Anyone know what causes that? For example, can you just sell 80% of the cabins set aside? Or does it need to be 100%?

The contract will require a minimum number of cabins for a special event cruise.  That will allow the "celebrity" to cruise for free (or at least to have a free cabin; not sure drinks and shore excursions would be provided free.  So if Whitney contracts to fill X cabins, she'll get hers for free.  If she doesn't sell that many, she'll have to pay for her own, or cancel the special cruise package.  All of those who have signed up for the NBS package would be able to keep their cabins (probably at the discounted cost everyone else is paying), or they can get a refund.  If Twit wants to bring Mama, Daddy, and various leeches, she'd need to sell a lot more cabins, or they'd have to pay for their own.  

Almost anyone can get a good deal if they organize something with a group; we did a Panama Canal cruise, and our travel agent got to come along, because she had sold at least 20 cabins for that cruise.  However, her drinks are shore excursions weren't "comped"; just the cabin. 

[ClareWalks]

I looked at the FB post promoting this clothing line and LOL at the few women who called Whitney out that she is NOT a 3X. They're like "I'm built like Whitney and I wear a 5X" and such. Lots of women who write "I'd love to buy but I'm bigger than 4X (sad face emoji)", they must be the same women who whine that they can't afford the cruise.

[Dot]

Yet another cruise pitch on Twit's FB page & she's beginning to sound desperate. One woman commented that she used to enjoy Twit's posts, but now all they are are commercials for her various merchandise. No one is saying any more, "You've convinced me; I just signed up." A few say "I'm going!" Most just say "I wanna go," including -- I kid you not -- one Lennie Alehat.

Thanks for the info. Twit's latest cruise pitch still says the cruise includes her "friends and family" & her special guests. So, is she getting a deal from the cruise line for freebies for these people (at least 9 by my estimation) or is Twit paying for them herself? Using your example above, 10 freebies (Twit & guests) would mean 200 bookings. Do celeb cruises usually get that many bookings? Esp. Z-list celebs.

Imagine how the ship's crew must feel when they hear they will be waiting on a 400-pound narcissist and her minions and wannabes. 

I just visited the NoBS store and found that several of the categories (jewelry, unisex apparel, drinkware) are empty. Get it together, Whit. Delete or hide the empty sections. This enterprise is starting to remind me of the Sister Wives' hot mess of a store.

This is so much bigger than the picture in her book where the photographer took a picture of her where she thought she was so beautiful..  It's so exhausting just looking at it.

I'm thinking Mommy and Daddy are almost certainly paying their own way, and I can't see Twit putting out $1 for anyone else.

But what about Boo Boo (Donna), Heather, Tal & Todd? (And maybe Boo Bear & Ashley tho I doubt it.) And Twit's 3 fabulous special guests? Surely these people aren't expected to pay their own way, if they could even afford it. For example, I can't see Heather with 2 kids & no discernible job paying a couple of thou for a cruise.

Well, that cruise with the Goths had easily more than 200, and after watching Rock this Boat, I have concluded that the New Kids on the Block appear to almost fill the ship with their fans. I would be tempted to book the December cruise but there is no way I would pay the extra $400 to be able to rub shoulders with the Whit.

Also, I highly doubt that anyone is getting their drinks comped since there is such a huge markup on alcoholic drinks. In fact that and the casino are how the cruise lines make money and can offer such low fares.

 

As far as that new fashion line of hers, you would have thought she might have had her hair looking a little nicer.

They must be almost as old as the Rolling Stones, but I guess a lot of cruisers are aging.

Out of curiosity, I tried to find a list of celebrity cruises currently booking, but Celebrity Cruise lines skewed the search.

What is bizarre is seeing mothers in their 40s going into hysterics at the sight of them as well as going to great lengths to meet them including wearing disguises. I was never a NKOTB fan but they really did seem to extend themselves for the fans. For example one was getting married on board and somehow arranged to have one of the New Kids attend her wedding.

This is the group pic from the last NBS cruise. So the answer to how many people does she need to go on the cruise herself, along with family and friends, appears to be THIS many.  :-)  (About 70, not counting friends and family?)

According to one website I just found, this is how  many people it takes to earn free berths/cabins:

"Here is an example of the number of free berths/beds you could earn if your group booked a 7-night cruise:

• 8 cabins (16 passengers) traveling = 1 Free Berth/Bed
• 16 cabins (32 passengers) traveling = 2 Free Berths/Beds (1 free cabin)
• 24 cabins (48 passengers) traveling = 3 Free Berths/Beds
• 32 cabins (64 passengers) traveling = 4 Free Berths/Beds (2 free cabins)
• 100 cabins (200 passengers) traveling = 12 Free Berths/Beds (6 free cabins)"

If this is correct, Twit possibly earned two free cabins (four people).  So she probably had one, and Mommy and Daddy got the other.  Since the cruise wasn't televised on the show, it's doubtful Heather and BooBear were comped.  Maybe they just paid for it out of the money they make pretending to be Twit's friends/roommates.

Thanks for this info. My brain is scrambled somewhat from the 105+ degree heat wave I'm in, but I think this calculates to about what I guessed: if Twit wants all her barnacles to go as freebies, she's got to sell about 200 bookings.

I think I'll share this with the True Crime and Kenda folks.  There was a Joe Kenda cruise that some of them took.

I don't think  8 inside cabins will yield a comped balcony though. So, Whit needs 16 people who will be paying the higher fare in order for her to have one of the nicer cabins.

105 - we'd call that a cool spell.  Going to be 118-120 here in AZ for the next few days.

I suspect they're more gracious to "celebrities" who bring in business, but two things I know for a a fact.  

1) Our travel agent had about 50-60 people on a Panama Canal cruise.  Most of us were in balcony or mini-suite cabins.  She was comped a room with a window, but definitely not a balcony.

2) A "headliner" comedian who entertained on one of our Alaskan cruises did a whole comedy routine on the free cabin he got as a "headliner."  Inside cabin - no window - and TINY.  At least he didn't have to share a cabin with 3 other people, like the cabin and dining room stewards have to do.  Imagine signing up for a 6-month contract, working 7 days a week, very little time off, and NO privacy.  It still pays better than staying in their home country and working (or not, depending on the availability of jobs), but it's still not an easy gig.

And then, there are the "gentleman hosts" who receive free passage in exchange for ballroom dancing with single ladies. They are not allowed to fraternize with said single travelers when off the dance floor, cannot dance with the same woman twice in a row, must attend all the ballroom dance lessons to partner with ladies  without one AND are assigned to small inside cabins with 3 other gentlemen hosts. And they must be impeccably turned out when in public.

What kind of horrifies me about Whitney is that she is so big she could crush someone. Seriously, not even trying to be a smart-ass, but if she wanted her cuddles (and we all know how Whitney gets when a man won't cuddle with her), she could physically overpower a man who weighs half as much as she does. That in itself isn't disturbing, but the fact that I could easily picture her doing that is. She is very sen-suss, i.e. a sexual predator of some kind.

[Cherrio]

At least she isn't on one of the nude cruises.

I got this screengrab from the FB comments for a post about Glenn...

Some feminist, huh? BTW, I think she's got several Arabs slobbering over her. Perhaps because of her pretend friendship with Nada Louis who lives 5,000 miles from her.

I think they meant that her normal tag line on her clothes is "noBS", which can look like the word "knobs".

I'm pretty sure that a ton of guys have swiped right with her, but ooooh no, she doesn't swipe right with them because they're not fit, skinny dudes (my standards are pretty low here, I'm assuming dad bods). 

 

I'm sure that there are probably a ton of neck beards ready for love and to give her a chance, but of course, she would never want them.

I still can't find her on match. I don't think she is on there. But if she is just on tinder than she is honeslty not looking for a real relationship. From my friends experience with it, its more just for hook ups.

I had a fit when my daughter joined Tinder, but she met up with only one very nice guy who turned out to be a perfect match. After two dates they deleted their Tinder profiles and they're still together a year and a half later. So it does happen but I still say my initial panic was justified. I want to know what HIS original goals were on Tinder...best not to think about it, I guess.

In Whitney's case I'm surprised that she isn't getting a lot of interest from losers who want to hook up with someone who is on TV, no matter how vile she is.

You only match and connect with people that you select.  If sleezeballs are swiping right with her, she'll only know if she swipes right with them.

So if your friend is always getting sleeze balls, she is actively selecting sleeze balls.

I think that these days, it's important that your kids bang a couple of dummies in order to recognize what a good relationship is when it comes around.

Just make sure that you have the birth control talk.  Im even ok with catching a level 1 STD.  Drops that "won't happen to me' mentality.

Could someone explain to an old lady what "swipe right" means? And is it an expression only used in connection with on-line dating sites? And what is a "pity swipe" & why would you expect one from your brother?

As far as I know, and that is only from what I have learned from popular culture, swiping right is only on Tinder, which is a dating/hook up site. It is a quick way of sorting people by appearance. If person A swipes right on person B because A would like to know B a little better then, if person B feels similarly they will swipe right on person A and they then can enter into a dialogue.

 

Now, as far as your second question, that is something only the Oracle at Delphi can answer. It seems downright Skeevy to have a sibling swipe right, And to beg for a pity swipe from your brother is just,plain.desperate.
