Influencer says armpit hair made her a million dollars

This woman says her armpit hair has made her a million bucks.

A Very Interesting Side Hustle Has Made This Woman A Lot Of Money

Everyone seems to have a side hustle these days because, let’s face it — it’s expensive to live in this world. So, making extra money is often needed.

People sell items on various sites like Poshmark and Facebook marketplace. They drive for Uber and Lyft, deliver food for Grubhub. Back in the day, you only had to work one of those side hustles instead of multiple. I had a friend in college who made a whole lot of money working a 976 number (google it, kids). She went on to become a psychologist. You tell me which one is tougher.

Here’s a money maker you might not have thought of, or maybe you have. And if you have, I guess I commend you.

News.com.au reports that British social media influencer Fenella Fox says she earns about $15,000 a month by posting pictures of her armpit hair. Yes, her armpit hair. Fanella is 30-years-old and says she’s made a bundle off of her natural armpit hair. Like $1 million dollars.

Influencer Is Not The First To Show Off Armpit Hair

She shares body positive images, as opposed to the typical bikini shots that every other woman does. Fenella also said she stopped wearing makeup, stopped styling her hair, stopped shaving, and lets her body do its natural thing. So just being a normal woman has paid off nicely.

Now I don’t know if this is for everyone — the job, or the pictures — but it sure works for her.

Vogue did a piece recently on how many female celebrities are embracing their armpit hair. Madonna did it back in the ’80s, so did Lisa Bonet. Pretty woman Julia Roberts has also embraced her natural self more recently.

Maybe women are just tired of always having to preen. And maybe Fenella found the niche that men, and I’m sure women, neededo fill.

Or, perhaps she’s just lazy. And I get that.

Do You Know Your Social Media Abbreviations?

Social Media Abbreviations are a whole language now.

This might wind up being a test, to either make you feel old – or young if you nail it. Below are the most popular abbreviations people use online.

Millennials and Gen-Zers of the world have taken technology and run with it, which is understandable considering they are the ones who grew up with it literally at their fingertips. They are natives to the worlds of technology, whereas the generations before them are all immigrants to the world of technology.

Do you wonder why so many things are abbreviated now? Believe it or not, people didn’t start abbreviating just to look cool. It actually started because of social media character limits.

Twitter is especially known for this because the platform used to only allow up to 140 characters in a single tweet, leaving lost tweeters to figure out how to make their messages short, sweet and to the point.

As Twitter was mostly being used by millennials and Gen-Zers in the beginning, they started to create their own language, with abbreviations. Twitter now allows up to 280 characters in a tweet, but the abbreviations aren’t going away any time soon, because they have become their own language.

Sometimes it’s difficult to keep up with all the latest slang, but I’m here to help!

So, here are some of the most popular internet abbreviations that are commonly used online, and definitely in text messages, so you don’t have to keep scratching your head in confusion every time you get a text from your kids.

If you’re paying attention even a little, you probably know a lot of these. Like LOL – “laugh out loud,” (no Aunt Mildred, it’s not “lots of love,” but thank you!) and FYI means “for your information”

Great start! But how many of these other ones do you know? Here’s a ranking – we’ll start out easy, then get a little harder.

In Real Life. This is when you need to give someone a dose of a reality check. You can use it in the context of “in real life, this wouldn’t be a big deal.”

Not Safe for Work. This one seems to be used during the golden age of texting abbreviations, which can be said to be around 2007 – 2010. This is when we were truly communicating through shorthanded abbreviations and keyboard emojis.

Talk To You Later. This is another great one that you can still use either in a sarcastic manner or a real-life meaning.
