A local girl has today committed an act that has become the norm amongst male and female social media users. Aliesha Handley-Smith (26) took a screenshot of Kate Simpson’s latest Instagram post and sent it directly to her all female group chat.
“Omg, Kate’s latest Insta” accompanied the photo.
The photo in question is one that see’s Kate, Instagram name keepingupwithkate, kneeling in front of a mirror with a concave arch in her spine, a technique employed by a number influencers that gives the illusion of a fuller, more peach-like butt.
“Can she get a grip?” One member replied.
“Omg what does her boyfriend think about this?” Questioned another.
“’K E E N // F O R // P E A C H’ wtf!?! I literally can’t deal” Another shot back.
One group member, who wished to remain anonymous, is referring to the caption that Kate uploaded with her photo, which The Advocate understands is a double entendre that is essentially a sexual proposition to her followers.
Sources have told The Advocate that the entire group chat have since liked Kate’s photo on Instagram and commented on it, the comments ranging from “yaass girl, [fire emoji] [peach emoji]” to “omg, slay!” some members even tagged Kate’s boyfriend.
The Advocate reached out to social media expert and behavioural psychologist, Dr. Christopher Walking, to see why this two-faced trend exists.
“Well, it’s simple really. These girls just haven’t matured yet. Another factor worth acknowledging is that the majority of these girls are Gemini’s, who are notorious for this kind of behaviour”
The world is definitely a more complicated place now, all we can advise is keep your friends close, and your frenemies closer.
More to come.
