I CAN’T WITH HER OUR UNPERCEIVED GIRLLLL

The one who unfollowed anyone who showed even the slightest interest in HR or H.

The one who “doesn’t like attention”

The one who’s “so private”

The one who made all of her accounts private

*text from stories*

If I continued effort to keep this account purely for work and deter people from sending me otherwise related messages/comments on my BUSINESS ACCOUNT - I have made a personal account

[gimmiekiss1221]

y'all ever think about how wild it is that hudcon's teams intentionally send them to separate events cause if they're together they just cling to each other and don't really interact with other people ? yeah

[misssassy56]

Interesting post on Threads yesterday. A lot of it tracks and explains why C and H got so close so fast

Thanks for sending this in!

I've talked before about how it seems to me that C would be more feelings first sex later and H would be more sex first feelings later and the reason they fell for each other so in tandem is exactly because of this. The body can't tell the difference between simulated intimacy for the cameras and real intimacy, especially if you're not stage kissing but actually swapping bodily fluids and kissing nipples and bellies and whatnot... no wonder they because so mutually obsessed with each other so quickly🥹

TMZ (Harbinger of Bullsh*t)

I said this yesterday and I think it will remain relevant as everything continues to unfold:

Now, I know people are on edge because it appears that Hudson's team lurks on social media, and they've kind of showed their hand with their recent behavior that they do. However, I don't think us pointing out inconsistencies is truly going to make them up the ante on this mess. If it does, it simply confirms the manufactured nature of all this and proves our point that we're being gaslit.

I'm not worried about what Hudson's team sees or doesn't see. I'm not worried about what ideas they have or get. The fact that you would even have to get an idea on how to make your client appear in love with their long-term girlfriend tells me everything I need to know.

Back at the height of the C/F nonsense in February, we got that TMZ article and pap pictures, of Connor and F in that restaurant. It was during the first week of February, and the picture had actually been taken earlier in the week but wasn't published until Friday. It was a fake as everything else in that narrative, but one thing about it stood out to me. Up until that point, some of us were trying really hard to remind people that every appearance between Connor and F at the time was work related, not some "date night" or event where Connor was choosing to be seen with F. There were no candid photos of them just hanging out. The next thing you know, we get the TMZ article and pictures of them "casually" hanging out at dinner. I know someone is going to say, "What about when they went to that restaurant in NYC?" Even that was promotion. Them being seen at the restaurant in LA seemed like certain people (F and his team. I still refuse to think Connor was actively part of it like people still believe) was lurking and taking notes on how to feed the narrative that they were together. However, in my opinion going that far was the beginning of the end.

Shortly after we got F being at the Cultured Magazine dinner for Connor's magazine cover. They took a few photos together not touching, and they didn't even sit at the same table, and again, work related event, not some "hard launch" or private dinner date. Then we got Hudcon SNL, followed by Connor icing F out at the GLAAD Awards and not even attempting to interact with F at the Madonna Oscars After Party, with Hudson being between them the entire time. And that was that. We haven't seen Connor and F publicly since then, and only the crazy shippers are still seeing "signs" that they're "together."

No matter what we see next on the H/K front that Beach "photoshoot" was a hot ass mess, and having TMZ cover it (and not even spell her name right, when her government name has been blasted everywhere since March 🙃) lets me know, that just like with C/F, when you have to stoop to using TMZ to prove a point, a point that Hudson's photo dump, and puff pieces by ELLE magazine apparently couldn't prove, you've ran out of ideas and options. Anything further is adding insult to injury and invites more speculation than confirmation (confirmation that shouldn't be needed anyway.)

Currently it appears that the "team" of "merry" travelers has landed in London, and honestly, I don't give a fuck. The shared sentiment among some including myself is that until this never-ending "vacation" whether work-related or for leisure ends, we would like to see less of Hudson unless it's related to his projects. We've had enough of his "private" life. That's why I don't care to keep track of his location via his team because they're all a part of this and I'm tired of seeing them too 🤣.

However, whatever tricks his management thinks they have left in their bag to sell this "long term" relationship, I feel like TMZ was them showing they had nothing left, and whatever we see next is of no concern. The only thing that seems to concern most of us is that none of this seems authentic to who Hudson is and it's probably draining on him mentally, and for that reason, I understand people's anxiety and worry. But the whole narrative itself, just block and dodge that shit like you're Neo in the Matrix. Out of sight, out of mind.

Meadow in the morning ☘️

Today I had to be at work at 6 am. When I arrived at my bus stop, this beautiful sunrise landing on the meadow delighted my eyes. Sometimes I really want to live a little longer.

The way he looks at Connor. Their hudcon vibes.

[ok-notgood-probablybad]

I have never seen him looking at anyone else like this. Boy is smitten.

[misssassy56]

Hi Miss Sassy, journalist anon here! Let's continue our thought experiment.

Imagine a PR agency wants to position its client as a heterosexual leading man and decides that the best way to achieve this is by creating a highly visible public relationship.

What measures would you expect?

Public appearances together at events? Check. Being photographed together at a concert? Check. The actor posting about his girlfriend on social media? Check. Paparazzi "catching" them kissing on vacation? Check… well, almost.

What would be next? A glossy magazine feature about their happy relationship? A romantic dinner spotted by photographers? Engagement rumors after she is seen wearing a suspicious-looking ring?

I am deliberately writing this as if it were following a screenplay, because that is exactly how an overly scripted PR campaign can begin to feel. Once audiences recognize a pattern, they stop focusing on the story itself and start paying attention to the strategy behind it.

This is where many traditional publicity campaigns run into a problem.

The playbook belongs to the early 2000s.

Back then, celebrity narratives were largely shaped by newspapers, television, and gossip magazines. Journalists decided which photographs the public would see, and celebrities had relatively little direct contact with their audiences.

Today, that world no longer exists.

Public opinion is no longer created primarily by entertainment journalists. It is shaped on Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, blogs, Reddit, and countless fan accounts. Every public appearance is recorded from multiple angles. Every event produces dozens of fan videos. Within minutes, people compare official photographs with what they have seen themselves.

And unlike traditional media, this conversation cannot be centrally controlled.

Now consider the consequences within our thought experiment.

The more aggressively the campaign tries to convince the public of a particular romantic narrative, the more closely people begin examining it.

Fans compare paparazzi photos with fan-recorded videos. They notice inconsistencies between official images and spontaneous interactions. They compare interviews, social media posts, and public appearances.

Sometimes they begin asking a simple question: "Why are we constantly hearing about this person's private life instead of their work?"

The problem is not necessarily the relationship itself. The problem is credibility.

Imagine, for example, that the actor wins a major award. His supposed girlfriend is sitting right beside him, yet he gets up without even acknowledging her. Viewers immediately begin discussing the moment online.

Or imagine he posts a photo of her on Instagram but chooses an unflattering image rather than a warm, affectionate picture.

Or imagine he shares a collage featuring both his girlfriend and his co-star, but places a red heart around the co-star's photo instead.

None of these moments proves anything about the actor's private life.

However, from a communications perspective, they undermine the narrative the campaign is trying to establish because they create conflicting signals. Once audiences start noticing those inconsistencies, every new photo is interpreted through that lens.

In our hypothetical example, the actor is sitting on a powder keg.

At that point, the smartest strategy would be to move the conversation back to what actually matters professionally.

Is there a new film? An exciting role? An award campaign? A major interview about the craft of acting?

Those are the stories that build a lasting career.

By contrast, an endless stream of relationship headlines risks creating fatigue. Fans and ordinary readers may become increasingly skeptical if they feel they are constantly being asked to believe a carefully managed narrative instead of simply being shown the actor's work.

Experienced entertainment journalists notice these dynamics as well.

They may never publish accusations about a celebrity's private life, and they generally should not. But behind the scenes they recognize familiar publicity patterns because they have seen similar campaigns before. They understand the mechanics of image management, even if they choose not to write about them.

The greatest risk is not necessarily that people reject the relationship. The greater risk is that they begin questioning the publicity strategy itself.

Once that happens, the actor's work is no longer the main topic of conversation. The campaign becomes the story.

From a communications perspective, that would usually be considered a sign that the strategy has failed.

We can’t stress enough: Perhaps the biggest mistake in our thought experiment is assuming that the public still consumes celebrity stories the way it did twenty years ago. It does not. The audience has changed.

Every fan carries a high-definition camera in their pocket. Every event, concert, vacation or award ceremony is documented from dozens of different angles. What used to be a single carefully selected photograph has become hundreds of videos uploaded within minutes.

That fundamentally changes the balance of power.

Official photographs no longer exist in isolation. They are immediately compared with fan footage, eyewitness accounts, livestreams, and social media posts. Audiences no longer consume a narrative, they verify it.

Authentic moments spread just as quickly as staged ones. But if a campaign appears overly orchestrated, fans will often notice the inconsistencies long before journalists write about them. Online communities compare timelines, archive interviews, analyse public appearances, and connect details that would have disappeared unnoticed twenty years ago.

Ironically, the very people a campaign is trying to persuade can become its toughest critics.

That is why modern PR is no longer about controlling every image. In many cases, that is simply impossible. The less a public narrative appears to require constant proof, the more believable it becomes.

The most valuable lesson from this thought experiment is about understanding that the audience has fundamentally changed.

A strategy that relied on carefully staged photographs might have worked in 2005, when the public saw only what editors chose to publish. In 2026, the public often sees everything and that changes the rules completely. In 2026, trying to control every aspect of the narrative is almost impossible. There are too many cameras, too many people documenting events, and too many ways for audiences to notice inconsistencies. A carefully managed sense of privacy is often more effective than an aggressively promoted storyline. Most importantly, the focus should remain on the actor's talent, his projects, and the range of roles he can play. The strongest long-term strategy is not to convince people of a constructed image. It is to build a career where the work speaks louder than the speculation.

Journalist anon is back everyone!!! Come get yall's food❤️

Shane & Ilya vs Hudson & Connor

[this-daydream-is-dangerous-13]

For my own notes — July 18th

A couple things I want to note here to remember.

The Elle magazine article today? Was an updated version of the one they ran in March after the Oscars (links to the original tweets now go to the updated article).

We got a Backgrid drop, then a DM grid post. At around 11 pm Eastern we got Just Jared.

I do love this comment under one of the DM posts.

And hrtwr is hilarious. A couple of my faves (one older):

He works out to the sound of gunfire. 💀

And after last night’s moments on the club stage:

My thoughts exactly.

[misssassy56]

Saw these pics on threads and someone asking if they are wearing the same top. (Connor has a loose tshirt over the top of it but looks v similar 👀 the ribbed fabric and the cuffs)

Have we seen this clothes-sharing evidence before?

Oh my goddd I do think they look verrry similar if not identical🥹🥹🥹

Mind you both of these pics were taken during their honeymoon in LA in December. So 100% yes one of them could have absolutely mindlessly grabbed the top from the floor after it being thrown there for Reasons and worn it without thinking anyone would clock it😇

They are walking a very thin line

The more I see the reactions to that absolute clownshow, the more its getting clear, that this is about to backfire very bad.

Hudsons team approving an article mocking HR is just absolutely insane. And a very bad move in every way.

These pics from yesterday are ridiculous and so obviously staged and literally everyone with eyes and a brain can see that. Hell even friends of mine, who never watched HR, were asking me why " that actor from your hockey show is pretending to be straight on the beach in Greece".

Being in fandoms for more than 20 years ,I have seen so many similar situations. Even the articles are always the same. " packing up the PDA" and that article sounding like straight ( lol) out of a very bad wattpad fanfic.

I could give you at least 5 examples where the article sounded exactly like the one from yesterday.

His team sucks and they are absolutely not reading the room.

DISCLAIMER: I am absolutely not blaming Hudson, its not his fault and he is not the villain.

But the way he is presented now in the public is just so icky. He is an amazing actor and an even more amazing person. But right now he is just another young actor who fills the tabloids with his " private" life and holiday pics with his " girlfriend ".

He is so much better than that.

Look I know unfortunatly that this is still how hollywood works, but unlike 10 years ago, a lot of people can see through the bullshit now.

And the queerbaiting allegations are already in full force again.

I hate to bring up that comparison for many reasons , but his team should take notes from Connors team.

The moment this whole mess with F got out of control and hurt C, they made sure to stop it.

( I don't think they EVER were a thing, absolutely not, but I think you know how I mean it).

Again, I am not blaming Hudson in any way, he is just trying to navigate his life and career, but if this clownshow will continue it will hurt him in so many ways.

I mean look at him, how absolutely exhausted and done he looked in Paris. How very forced his smile at the Club was last night.

His team needs to realize that this is doing more harm than good.

I love them both very much and I know some people might call this parasocial that I worry about all of this, but I am an empath and I have seen this film before...

I need Happy Hudson back♥️
