Resurrecting some bg-in-the-works posts
Allow me not to bury it all under a read more because then upon deletion, all content is gone. This way at least the reblogs keep it alive.
Q: Whats the whole thing with the monkey?? Ive legit never heard of this
A by stylestm: a couple of days before the boys were going to go back on tour, louis was papped at lax. everyone was really confused, because he didnāt need to be papped (his name wasnāt as near as big then as it is now) and it didnāt look that great given the band was about to go on tour and it was clear they werenāt in rehearsals. then, louis posted a picture of himself with eli the monkey from the steal my girl video. later, an update account posted a picture of briana with the monkey but quickly deleted it and all of them refused to post it again. it was basically like,Ā āleak it yourself if you want it out there.ā briana at the time had an instagram, but it was private. after the pictures of her and the monkey didnāt circulate, she went turned off private and put her instagram on public to get them to spread around. i canāt remember if that ever worked. but, either it did or she realized no one was going to post it, so she went back on private. anyway, it later came to light that the trip was highly publicized and talked about because i think itās supposed to be when louisĀ āfound outā about the baby, even if i think she would have missed her period like days before he showed up. and instead of keeping that on the downlow and sorting the situation out, his team thought it was a good idea to get him papped.
This happened shortly after as well:
9 days later the IT'S NOT REAL concert happens.
Q: I've been seeing a lot of baby gate talk again and I remember people saying she stole pics of other women? Do we have proof of this or is it stuff that looks photoshopped or something?
A by aliensyndrome: he and her family legitimately stole photos of amber fillerupās pregnancy/hospital trip. thereās threads somewhere that show it but the most circulated are her cousin ashleyās place in this entire saga that have all checked out
Now some tea spilling about the night when "CALVIN FUCKED UP":
posted by: chnandler-blog3: I hate to do this because Iāve stepped away from the fandom and really am just fed up with it. And in light of the kind of stunts they are running right now - this is the last straw. I have been sitting on a story from my friend (Iām posting this for her. And she previously wanted me to keep it private but she gave me permission to post it.) I HAVE TO SAY THIS IS NOT MY STORY - MY friend gave me permission to post it. Please respect me and do not ask me who it is. She is not famous so it doesnāt matter who she is. This will be my last post about 1D for a long time if even forever. Because this fandom is NOT healthy. But anyway hereās the story (I wonāt answer asks about it because Iām not posting it for the attention on me.) Itās a receipt that UAs deceive and contribute to damage control. Also if they tweet random shit about Larry or anything really thatās out of place like thereās prolly a reason why even if nobody is talking about anything in particular.
Now my friend was telling me and a group of friends about this little incident clubbing. It was in May in LA (it would have had to be May 9th? Because I tweeted the 10th about last night Calvin fucked up which Iām gonna add later.) that time Louis went clubbing with Calvin, Oli and Liam. Itās nothing incriminating to Louis OR Harryās sexuality. BUT my friendās friend went clubbing with them that night (the one night Liam was with them.) My friend told me that that her friend told her that Calvin was trying to get these girls to go back to the hotel where Oli, Calvin, etc were staying at and he was SO smashed and he was saying that the guys will be there and that they should come back with them and then backtracked to say that Louis wouldnāt be there because heās staying at Harryās. Now my friends and I didnāt really know if this was true but nonetheless we got a kick out of it and (I have a couple screencaps of tweets I sent out about the situation.) TO WHICH THIS GETS BETTER:
SO the next day 1DAlerts comes online to say theyāre pretty sure Louis was staying with FRIENDS not Harry. Pretty convenient, eh? Nobody understood why they tweeted this. Because I mean aside from the normal chatter like NOBODY was tweeting about this story which is the MOST hilarious part! āObviouslyā¦.ā
If you see my tweets shading the situation are timestamped a couple hours BEFORE their tweet. And even better another friend of mine posted shading them for covering up when his friend fucks up and they called her crazy and were justĀ āstating their opinionā They didnāt even mention the UA by name or the people involved :ā) Ā The funniest bit is we all were sitting on this and they really just confirmed the story to us when they were trying to cover it up⦠And no that one Iām replying to on these screencaps donāt know anything and is not my friend in this story so donāt harass them about this. I will not be divulging who it is. So again PLEASE respect and donāt ask who it is. I donāt wanna send out 18237429847289 replies saying no. Itās just gonna be a blanketed no.

tbt to when calvin was drunk and when asked by a bunch of girls if louis was coming with them back to the rental he said no and that he was going back to harrys, brianna & ashley were in that group of girls but oh & letās make it better ! i know this really happened because i found this out early morning that next day when somebody told me that she got a phone call @ 2 am of her friend drunkly sobbing on the line about how larry might actually be real (this girl is a groupie and a huge het stan & has been for years like how else do you think i got that calvin nude last year ??? I donāt have his snapchat lol) & explained what calvin said and me, my friend and my friend she told it to were all laughing about in our dms that morning and ohhhhh LETS MAKE IT EVEN BETTER !!! jordyn got on twitter the day after it happened and tweeted about how louis didnāt go to harrys house LOL so I tweeted āwhen your boy fucks up and gets a ua to fix itā & she replied to me like 2 seconds after saying ācalvin never said anything about louis going to harrys and he didnāt tell me to fix itā & I LITERALLY SCREAMED, again instead of going home with his āflingā or āgfā at the time he went home to harrys just like when girls would wake up at the rental and louis would never be there :) & donāt even get me started on the stories ive heard of girls seeing them bring brianna / ashley home with NO louis with them but you know !!!!!! we are wrong to doubt this !!!!!!!!! AMAZING !!!!!!!!!

@happy1days asked about the URLs in her tags on my chat. Most were registered on 20 July 2015, and were registered for 1 year, ending 20 July 2016.
My curiosity lead me to see if they were still taken, but guess what. After we found them and dragged their asses for their money-grabbing attempts at the end of January, the more blatant URLs were released and are up for purchase again.
The following URLs are still taken and expire 15 July 2016, exactly 1 year and 1 day after the People announcement was made:
These URLs are still taken and expire 20 July 2016:
However, the following URLs have been released and are up for sale again:
brianajungwirthbaby.com ($11.99/year)
brianatomlinson.com ($799.99/year)
babytomlinson.com ($11.99/year)
tomlinsonbaby.com ($11.99/year)
brianajungwirthupdates.com ($11.99/year)
onedirectionupdates.com ($6,500 minimum offer)
brianajungwirthclothing.com ($11.99/year)
babytomlinsonphotos.com ($11.99/year)
I think they kept their names and business-related URLs (quattrochifilms, etc.) for personal reasons. However, they also appear to have kept the most obvious and most valuable Louis and 1D-related URLs, too.Ā ālouis tomlinsons babyā andĀ ālouis tomlinson babyā andĀ āone direction babyā are by far the most Googled terms in this group of URLs.
They released the more embarrassing URLs with less income potential back into the pool.

i feel like the events of the past few days have given me a much better understanding of the past few months and wow everything is always so much clearer in retrospect with this fandom
#we can be reasonably certain that simon is out and the syco contract is over#because of his billboard article in which he preemptively tries to do damage control#then the sun article confirming louis *wonāt* actually be part of the x factor#followed by tmz ramping everything up to a million again#and openly discussing the possibility of the baby being fake#and introducing the concept of larry to the general public/non 1d viewers for the first time#so it makes so much sense to me that all the perceived stops and starts we had werenāt actually stops and starts#so much as they were treading water and setting up the narratives that would be relevant later#as well as doing everything they could to protect louisā image#so he looks like a good caring father#because as long as louisā image is in tact#they can deal with the tiny bumps simon might throw at them#like louis being forced to do interviews about freddie at the brits for instance#they would have learned from last time#with the bullshit 2.0 tweet#that thereās no point trying to make any major headway while simon still has influence#because heāll just find a way to thwart their plans or throw in a curveball they donāt want to deal with#like if theyād tried to end babygate earlier#while simon still had the ultimate trump card of the syco contract hanging over the boys heads#who knows what other shit could have happened#or how he could have intercepted things for the worse#so no they just did their best to keep the story moving but not taking major steps forward#(the custody battle being the exception)#(because that was something that needed to be introduced to the public reasonably ahead of time)#(in order to preserve even the most basic illusion of realism)#and made sure to keep the fandom occupied and busy speculating and trying to figure out what was happening#but as much as they might have initially hoped to end things earlier#i think as soon as louis started playing along after the ābirthā#they knew they were in this for the long haul#mineĀ (adifferentkindofson)
