Nike's risque Olypic fit, battle of the Jelly Rolls & an online manhunt 👀🍿🧃
Hi Wrecklings!
This week has me watching the Brandy Melville documentary, it’s a heavy one. Also, a year and a half after The Wing’s sudden closure, seems like they’re cleaning house:
“China shuts down influencer's accounts over fake story”- Hopefully it’s only her social accounts that vanish…
“Jelly Roll Sued by Pennsylvania Wedding Band Jellyroll over Alleged Trademark Infringement”- These are the only Gelly Rolls I care about.
“Woman Becomes Accidental Beauty Influencer After Hilarious Videos Go Viral”- I hate that that’s probably also my correct shade.
“‘My hoo haa is gonna be out’: US Olympians slam Nike for skimpy women’s track kit”- Come on Nike.
“This May Be Detroit’s Version Of The Viral ‘Willy Wonka Experience’ That Failed”- Wow, almost half a mil for that?

“People shocked after discovering how much food and drink costs at Coachella”- I literally would never pay $16 for a White Claw, omg.

“Perfect Day sued by manufacturing partner for fraud and breach of contract. Olon claims $112m in unpaid bills, $32m in damages”- Love a good vegan beef.
“Nicola Peltz Beckham, a billionaire’s daughter, made a movie about abject poverty. It’s as bad as you think”- The lack of self-awareness is impressive.
