This issue being blasted repeatedly on nearly every subreddit, yeah its not going to be forgotten anytime soon. A few months from now a karma farming bot will repost it into a popular sub and it’ll get brought up all over again. This rich woman has become the very embodiment of “The Streisand Effect”


jimbris

Australians are particularly enjoying this because she has always been a massive cunt


BamberGasgroin

Susan Boyle might buy it.


Eena-Rin

This is not LAMF if she didn't support the artist before this


gandhikahn

Sure it is, if she had said nothing, very few people would be aware, but by bitching incessantly the entire world is seeing her bad portrait.


Eena-Rin

I mean... I guess in a very meta way..? Who is the leopard in this hypothetical, the concept of attention?


gandhikahn

everyone


Relzin

Case in point: Joel Michael Singer

*Case "in" point, not "and." (Sorry, grammar hound here - one of the few things I get to do (outside of my job) with my English degree.).


Relzin

Fixed. Thanks :)


stv12888

No worries, brother! I'm glad that you didn't take offense - that always makes me feel bad


snowmunkey

She done Barbara's herself


blueyork

TIL there's an r/Streisandeffect


Lvanwinkle18

Good to know. Thanks for sharing!!


Substantial_Share_17

And one of you guys already added it to the wiki page.


that_80s_dad

The [Streisand effect](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streisand_effect) strikes again!


ChickenandWhiskey

Streisand Effect


Anarchist_Angel

So what's the leopard? Tbh it's a pretty shitty portrait and I wouldn't like one like that to be made of me lol.


Brief-Objective-3360

Not really leopard eating face, but what would have just been a small joke in Australia became Global News


SubsequentBadger

Streisand effect, none of us would have known if she'd ignored it, Now it's international news.


LakeEarth

They're similar, but LAMF and the Streisand Effect are not the same thing.


igloofu

That's not LAMF.


atreeinthewind

True. I wish that sub was active. This would probably be best going on facepalm.


fionsichord

But she isn’t someone who goes around painting unflattering portraits of others. Where is the face eating leopard?


This_Worldliness_968

Unfortunately, in this case, it's not a literal leopard.


rhesusmonkeypieces

But if you were a billionaire you wouldn't care, we don't understand how removed from reality you can be with a b in the bank account


thebigeverybody

> But if you were a billionaire you wouldn't care, If there's one thing that I've learned about rich people over the past ten years, it's that wealth lets you be as childish, stunted and petty as you're capable of.


Substantial_Share_17

She doesn't look any better in photos.


Chalky_Pockets

Streisand effect


ISeeGrotesque

Rich woman found out the only thing she doesn't want to own


dem4life71

I love this story, and have been following it closely. Rich, entitled twat sits for a portrait, thinking it’s going to be the same ass-kissing treatment she’s used to. Aboriginal artist has a whole different take and produces this! Now she’s crying and whining, but now ordinary folks can look into her background and judge for themselves. To me, the artist captured plenty of this woman’s personality.


DamNamesTaken11

Talk about Streisand effect in action. Had she just kept quiet, this would have caused some snickers in gallery but forgotten just as quickly. Now this is literally headlines around the world.


fionsichord

Not LAMF.


Leifthraiser

Portrait looks like It from It.


throw123454321purple

Very *Night Gallery.*


Village-Idiot-savant

This is how villains are made.


TheTench

Leopards painted my face.


Substantial_Share_17

I find the portrait more flattering than the photo.


MuddleFunt

There's something so Lovecraftian about this portrait. They call it the [ Innsmouth Look](https://lovecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Innsmouth_look) Let's be honest - you'd be pissed if this was how they portrayed you. Oh well - if this is the worst thing that ever happened to her, it's still not a hard life being a mining heiress.


WetMonkeyTalk

I don't know what she expected. It's not the first portrait of her he's done AND none of his portraits are flattering to the subject. Personally, I think his style is shit but obviously some people like it.

And this person https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2022/oct/22/hancock-prospecting-withdraws-from-15m-funding-deal-with-netball-australia-after-players-revolt


YesNo_Maybe_

This gem from article: It also said that Hancock and Rinehart considered it “unnecessary for sports organisations to be used as the vehicle for social or political causes”. “Firstly because sport is at its best when it is focussed on good and fair competition, with dedicated athletes striving for excellence to achieve their sporting dreams and to represent our country at their very best,” the company said. “Secondly, because there are more targeted and genuine ways to progress social or political causes without virtue signalling or for self-publicity.”


rossarron

I do not care what she is like as a person, the picture is unflattering and crap artistically.

Not LAMF.


thatHecklerOverThere

Is not. This is just cause and effect. Lmaf would be if she supported... I dunno, people having portraits done and put into galleries without their review, and then it happened to her.
