!

It was my favorite as well.  Pretty sure Michelle Obama would pay full price for whatever clothing/products she wanted, make sure they were genuine, not endorse illegal activity, and give money toward charities dealing with certain illnesses instead of to unconfirmed cases based on unconfirmed and extremely dubious statements on the internet.

That said pretty sure the whole post was a joke of some sort.

I am ~*eViL eLeNa*~. My likes are make-up, fashion, men, kitty cats, free things, and walking on da beach. My dislike are mean people, spit, snobs, jerks, war, drugs, cancer, Tom Cruise's , and disease. Please peepz hear me out. I think RED CARPET BOX is a great beauty subscription service and it has all my favorite brands like ~*Revlon*~, BETSY JONSON, M*A*C* even though I understand that mite not be real which I am undecided about how I feel about that but I think that the FOUNDER Patty is doing her very best and we should all cut her some slacks because she is very ill and she help sick people even when she is run down and exhausted. How many of us can say we do that????!!!  She puts make up from great brands and wholesalers and jewelry and purses and sometimes watches and other great fashion items all in ONE box every single box just so women can look pretty on the outside and inside and I understand she does a lot of that on her very own dime. I think she is a selfless and kind-hearted women and we should all strive to be more like the founder of this fledgling fashion and beauty company that is made for people JUST LIKE US! Come on this is a makeup company that we should be supporting not bashing! I don't think that any of u are bashing but I think we should strive to avoid that and just support this sick and frail business founder and buy her products and help her donate to the ill. WHat would Michelle Obama do in a situation like this??? What would Jackie-Oh do??? Just think about that and chew on it for a minute or 2 before you judge. Look in the mirror and take a moment 2 walk in the founder's shoe. Thank you for understanding my plight. Peace and luv 2 all!!!

~pEaCe OuT~* WORD TO YOUR MUTHA

Ok I'm calling joke/"troll" on this one.  While there are spelling mistakes throughout, the poster also correctly spells "fledgling", "exhausted", and "plight".  This person also used your/you're correctly, which I've certainly never seen in this type of rant 

So haha, you certainly got a bunch of us going.  And "What would Michelle Obama do?" is totally my new catchphrase

When Glossybox ships late, or BB leaves out a product,, before I do anything I'm going to step back and think "What would Michelle Obama do?" Then proceed.

Um, yeah, except it isn't a make-up company.  It's someone selling counterfeit and/or expired and/or discontinued cosmetics and calling it a subscription

Probably scold the FOUNDER for misleading people and trying to make a profit off them them. 

 Yo, VIP, let's kick it!
Allright, stop. COLLABORATE AND LISTEN! 

Annnnd thanks for getting THAT stuck in my head! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Love it! The evilelena post was very amusing.

based on the red carpet box wall on FB, I'm thinking this evillena person is Patricia's sister? She writes things like: 

Quote: her company finds great products. she is a woman building a solid company. she is also trying to do some benefit and heart healing for a lot of people. please check her company, and if u ever meet patricia u will see that my sister really is such a sweet sauce of righteous love.

Possibly. I just don't get WHY they have to always talk about Patty's illnesses. What does that have to do with professionalism of running a business? If she's THAT sick then she should focus her attention on getting well. What if her health took a turn for the worse... what about the people who paid for their things then?

Oh I totally agree.  If she is that ill for real, she should not be working and definitely not be working on this.  I know some genuinely, terribly ill people unfortunately must keep working to keep receiving health insurance benefits but she is not in that category. Also, those people by and large don't use their illness as an excuse to their boss every time they mess up.

In this case, whether she is ill or not has no impact on her business.  It would be another thing, too, if she used it as an excuse for, for example, shipping late.  While a better solution would doubtless be to apologize for the delay and offer a discount on the next box or something instead of getting into health issues, that is one area where I could see being hospitalized or something as being a viable excuse.  But she seems to use it as an excuse for the terribly low quality and  counterfeit nature of her products, something that has nothing to do with if she is ill or not. It's just as easy (if more expensive) to buy real Betsy Johnson as it is to buy fake Betsy Johnson.

 

[OiiO]

If evilelena is for real, then it totally went over her head that distributing fake purses with stamped on new labels and fake MAC is ILLEGAL.

But I guess there are all sorts of people in the world, like those who do drugs, commit crimes or participate on other illegal activities...

If she is still defending, promoting and encouraging Patty's "business" (I also use the term loosely) despite knowing all that, then she is also one of those criminals who would do anything for money.

"This is a copy of our donation directly to Jordan's mother, Lisa. We sent an additional 10.00. Prizes will be the sole responsibility of Red Carpet Box for shipping. No donations will be used for shipping prizes. No burden will put on donations. Thank you from Red Carpet Box. Paypal is amazing! The money has been sent! Red Carpet Box, you have sent $93.00 USD to Lisa . We sent a receipt to your email inbox. We also sent a notification to Lisa" So shady. She said she was going to give $100 of her own personal $, then changed it to a gc, then said she was going to mail clothes. That's when she started setting the stage, and claimed mut was ruining her charity. At that point, I noticed her dropping hints abt using donations for shipping (that is when I knew she had no intentions of giving any of her own $). She ultimately gave a whopping $10, and tried to make it look like she was the ultimate giver. Why can't these ladies see that? Not one soul has called her out on it, not to mention, the whole thing looks shady. I hope she did wind up giving the donated money at the very least, but I'm skeptical. I think the entire dog & pony show was a means for her to get attn & accolades for being such a wonderful person, in a last ditch attempt to make a few bucks on her failing subscription. Furthermore, I don't like how she talked abt the little girls family by using the mom's full name & openly saying she was struggling to provide things like clothing. She could have been a bit more pc in her wording, and not divulged the mother's last name. I don't know, maybe I am nitpicking, but I just wasn't comfortable w/ that. I've donated to kids on my son's fb team (fb gear like cleats, under armour, etc ). We were so careful in the way we worded our e-mail asking families if they needed anything. It is a sensitive issue, even though the good intentions may be there.
