From the article: "Abraham is known for being a star of the shows "16 & Pregnant", "Teen Mom" and "Teen Mom OG". She's also starred in her own porn movie and previously worked in an Austin strip club."  HAHAHAHA! I bet Farrah loved reading that.

Of course, she has most definitely been working and has taken all the opportunities to make more money for quite awhile. Farrah's own words though, she "didn't do porn" and she was "just hosting" at the club. The way the article worded that sentence, as starring in a porn and working in a strip club" surely set her off. That is NOT how she describes it all. She doesn't like it when people say that. 

[qtpye]

It was not a porn...it was a celebrity sex tape.

In the immortal words of a confused reporter...who was the celebrity?

Yelp reviews for FROCO are starting to appear.  Two people who gave rave reviews have no other reviews on Yelp, and just signed up in June -- mighty suspicious.  Then of course there's the review from Simon.  The boy loves his exclamation points:

Awesome atmosphere! Great Staff! The place exceeded my expectations! Family friendly and a great variety of flavors to choose from! Farrah did a great job creating this establishment and keeping a high standard of cleanness [sic]! Will be coming back! A great additional [sic] to the community! Can't wait to see more flavors coming soon!

Family friendly?

[CakeButter]

After years of lurking, I literally just signed up to post about the Yelp reviews! (Not sure what that says about me as a person?) In addition to the one by Simon, there's also one from Paola, Farrah's friend on the show.

The Froco website is back up too and it's riddled with word salad and grammatical errors. 

Quote

Our mission statement is "passion + positivity = keep it poppin" The mascot is Coba the popping boba which is the main topping that goes on frozen yogurt in the passion fruit flavor. This is kid friendly and very family oriented establishment. We also offer Birthday parties and Educational classes as well.  Froco is taking frozen yogurt shops to the next level, our staff is required to wear the provided chef uniform it is fashionable and classy, you may where sunglasses at work as well.

Girlfriend needs a copywriter.

or maybe they're just going to offer Educational classes in writing like that, hoping it'll catch on?????

[ghoulina]

Yes, but make sure not to take said Educational classes on your Birthday. That would not = keep it poppin!

That copy is just plain embarassing. Does Debra offer any sort of feedback or does she know she will be shouted down? How can the webmaster/creator (I know Farrah's not doing the actual page!) post that in good conscience?

I wonder if Farrah has anyone "managing" her "career".  I think she needs a publicist, STAT!!!

[OtterReality]

 One of the yelp reviewers is Braham J., flip that around and it becomes J. Braham rhymes with Abraham. Excerpt from her review: 

"I heard the owner is celebrity Farrah Abraham she rocks as a mom so ofcourse she created the best Froyo ever!"

Because we're all stupid  haha

That picture in Paola's yelp review, I half expected it to be a GIF of Sophia turning her head all the way around. Creepy.

I want to spend $200 to tour a frozen yogurt shop and receive an "in-depth booklet."  How long does it take to tour a 1,000 square foot retail space?

Seriously, my head hurts after trying to read this jumble of words in her Job Opportunities section, not to mention Farrah's insane self-aggrandizing:

"Start training all applicants by reading this understanding that the owner of this brand is a top celebrity in the nation, all employees who apply must be okay with being on TV if it comes up and must be responsible for their own actions and behavior comfort levels while being filmed.

She uses the lame term "kiddos" in her fake review as well as her Business Owners Statement.

The fake review has now been relegated to the "not currently recommended" section.  Pity. 

In other news, the townhouse she recently bought in L.A. is now listed for rent.  Looks like she'll be staying in Austin after all.  Sorry, Hollywood!

Does she have any self-awareness at all? Or is she trolling?

https://www.instagram.com/p/BGQEnkfLxCM/?taken-by=frocofreshfrozencoba&hl=en

I'm really fascinated by Farrah because her behavior is just so bizarre. I see people praising her hustle and, like, I guess? But all her businesses remind me of things I'd come up with as a kid - I'm gonna open a froyo shop! With a mascot named Coba the Popping Boba! And I'm gonna sell Coba dolls and make so much money! And I'll start a school to show other people how to run a froyo shop! And all my employees will wear sunglasses! That legit sounds like a business plan an 8 year old would have.

Someone's got to be helping her with all these side hustles she has going, but either they're as stupid as she is or they're afraid to tell her that her writing makes no sense and that her ideas aren't great.

I feel exactly the same way. A lot of her "hustle" is because, one, she happened into a TV show and that gets you some amount of publicity, which in turns has people wanting to piggy back on that publicity, and you have opportunities come to you. Then, you have these weird businesses (wine, pasta sauce, beauty lines), which are a result of the TV show and having some extra cash to invest, so without a legit business manager this is what she does. Then the other part is because she was willing to film a porn and the opportunities that have sprung from that. (Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against someone choosing to do porn, but because Farrah still denies that's what it was, she gets no credit for me. In fact, her denial that it's porn is just her way to put down other women in the industry, because of course Farrah isn't like them, she's better -- which just makes the whole thing worse). 90% of the stuff on her linked is either made up "work" (I can say I had my own businesses too) or it's one month at some retail place before she moved on, which doesn't show hustle, it shows lack of follow through and a poor work ethic, and if you have worked any retail or customer service then you know those young people who get the job, do some training, show up for a shift or two, then you never see them again and they never call; that's not hustle.

[CofCinci]

I hope Farrah makes a porno/"celebrity sex tape" with the froyo mascot guy while in costume.

LOLOL. Sure, a 2-week notice policy is enforceable. I'm sure she won't be giving 2 weeks notice to any employees she decides to let go.

[teapot]

I'm thinking, Farrah has no friends, no SO (occasional Simon doesn't count, sorry!) so I think the froyo shop is probably her attempt at a storyline.  Maybe she wants a spin-off.  (Debra & Farrah are probably cackling about how ingenious this is..)

[anarchyangel84]

If someone posted about this, I apologize.

I was watching WEtv when I saw a commercial for a show called Million Dollar Matchmaker with Patti Stanger (not to be confused with Millionaire Matchmaker on Bravo). It's supposed to premiere July 8th at 10pm. Anyway, not paying much attention, I saw someone who looked like Farrah. I searched it, and of course the fame whore is going to be on there. This poor Patti woman is going to have a hell of a time, how do you match crazy?? I'm not sure who else will be there, but here's a link with a video (that I didn't watch).

http://www.wetpaint.com/farrah-abraham-patti-stanger-million-dollar-matchmaker-1499422/

If she does get matched, maybe she can stay on the same network & go on Marriage Boot Camp. (They're not all married & they pretty much take whoever! If there's nothing else on, I may check this out. It should be entertaining. 

[pakalolo]

So Farrah wants to be matched with a millionaire? She's not the millionaire herself, right?  

Farrah has gone so overboard on the fillers in that photo her face now looks like her body is obese, its gone from plumping up fine lines or filling in cheeks to just looking like straight up fat. I fully expect her to become a plastic surgery oddity similar to Jocelyn Wildenstien within a year or so. 

[CofCinci]

Farrah is making a girl-girl sex tape.

http://starcasm.net/archives/352038

[qtpye]

 Farrah does not do porn.  This must be another leaked celebrity sex tape

I have no problem with porn, but Farrah's lies make my brain hurt.  Anyway, she must be pretty desperate to do another one of these things when she has said horrible things about porn stars and how she is so much more classy.  Of course, this has not stopped her from attending porn conventions, awards, and making body part molds.

I thinks she really thought she was going to be the next Kim K after the "celebrity sex tape".

[Snarky McSnarky]

Farrah's much-publicized move to Hollywood never actually happened.  She bought this townhouse but never moved in.  She first tried to rent it out, but has now listed it for sale as well.

10/19/2015 Listed $949,000

02/08/2016 Price Changed $899,900

04/15/2016 Sold to Farrah $845,000

06/20/2016 Listed by Farrah $899,995

[CakeButter]

I really don't understand how she's not broke. I highly doubt she's making much from all her stupid side hustles (in fact, I bet a lot of them are costing her money), so how can she afford 2 mortgages? And now she's selling this place at a loss and also losing what she put into it in upgrades and furniture. She has no financial sense at all.

[DoctorWhovian]

Based on those numbers it's not at a loss (unless my brain is mush from studying and I'm misreading). But chances are it will continuously be lowered in price like her Austin house.

[qtpye]

Probably worse for Farrah, then having to sell the house (homes sell pretty quickly in LA, from what I hear) is that there is no demand for her, whatsoever, in Hollywood to justify a move.  She probably thought she was going to get offered at least C movie roles.

I bet you this is why she is trying to release another porn...uh, sex tape.  After, Teen Mom is over, porn will probably be the venue where she will end up.  She will do this under the banner of female empowerment.  Remember, she told the producer she can easily make millions doing other things.

Even if she gets her asking price, the 6% sales commission wipes out any profit.  Then there are closing costs, whatever mortgage payments she's made since April, utilities, security, maintenance, and HOA fees (it's a duplex).  It may not be a huge loss, but she's not making any money on the deal.

[CofCinci]

I'm fairly confident that all of Farrah's businesses are some sort of foreign money laundering scheme. She's probably on a terror watch list.

Nope, it's my brain that's mush, I misread. Teething toddler = sleep deprivation.

If she's selling for more than she paid and never lived there, wouldn't she also get hit with capital gains taxes? There's totally something hinky going on with her finances. 

[Willowsmom]

If she has a profit and owns the house without living in it she will pay capital gains.

[iheartla]

 

Farrah looked snotty at 10 years old.
I'd love to be a fly on the wall when she was that age. A child with drive and dedication is awesome, but seeing what she's morphed into, why was she hustling from 9-10 am to 7pm every day? Was she already morphed to believe that money is the most important thing life can offer? Playing with the neighborhood kids is for poor losers, right?

[Snarky McSnarky]

According to recent reports, Farrah claims that she'd meant to flip her L.A. townhouse all along.  If so, she would have been better off not purchasing it in the first place.  As previously discussed, she isn't going to net any kind of profit.

It just seems like another one of her bullshit answers to save face.  She really thought she was going to have a career in Hollywood.  I think she thought she would get her own show, like the Kardashians, about her fabulous life.

She's money laundering, I'm telling you. 

[qtpye]

It's definitely fishy...but so is everything about Farrah.  She lives in Austin which has a strong real estate market, when your house is not ridiculously overpriced.  Why the hell would she be flipping houses in L.A?  Heck, even financially clueless Amber knew that you flipped close to home.  Also, after the taxes and fees, she is barely making money on the deal to make it worth it.

Yeah, money laundering plus tax evasion, with a sprinkle of delusion about what her future earnings will be as a washed up reality/porn star... this is probably the foundation of Farrah's business model.  Her being linked with Shady Simon does not help.

I'm glad someone else sees the money laundering and it's not just me.

Ok, so it's Radar Online, but I believe these are direct quotes. 

And, oh dear, it appears that both schools that awarded this successful businesswoman her degrees are not well

("Strangle " being a bit harsh, indeed, but I'm gonna go out on a limb & say it was a 'figure of speech'....then again, I only have *one* degree so what do I know?)

[qtpye]

I am sure Farrah at this point is just spouting off crap to keep her name on the internet and in the trashy tabloids.  She can not afford to be forgotten.  However, she probably does think that every man who says something unflattering about her just wants her and every woman who says something negative is just jealous of her beauty and success.  That is something I have no problem believing.

[ghoulina]

I love watching/listening to Farrah speak. This is obviously a woman who is trying very hard to sound educated. She peppers her speech with big words, but doesn't exactly use them correctly, and at times her sentences become completely unintelligible. She just rambles on and on and throws words like "empathize" out there and thinks she's sounds all professional, but it's garbage. It gives me such a kick! 

As for the issue at hand, Drew is a ridiculous quack, but he was clearly not being literal with his "strangle" comment.
