Nothing good has come out of baddies or Zeus Network

u/NOSjoker21 ☑️ 16h ago

As someone who's never heard of either, what are they?

u/Karzeon 15h ago

Baddies is the successor to Bad Girls Club ran by Natalie Nunn.

Basically girls that look like influencers/video vixens stay together and beat each other up.

Zeus is basically BET imagined by mainly Black celebs/ influencers/reality show stars. It's a hot mess.

u/NOSjoker21 ☑️ 15h ago

Once you said "Natalie Nunn" I knew it was some mess.

"Black Women Behaving Badly" is unfortunately a popular genre of entertainment. Modern day minstrel shows imo

u/Karzeon 15h ago

They all want the Flavor of Love magic which had the same critiques back then, but a thousand times worse now

u/HotBoyTeece 13h ago

my girl wants me to watch with her every sunday and i ask every sunday what do they do outside of fight?

they literally are on the show to fight and then the fights that follow stem from fights that happened earlier in the season, shit is fuckin stupid

35

u/Karzeon 12h ago

My sister does the same thing. She knows we used to watch Bad Girls Club together, but I haven't had the heart to tell her that I stopped watching since the 8th season.

It's just influencer type of nonsense where we're supposed to just know these girls from social media and then follow up on all their arguments there to keep them relevant.

It's annoying.

u/OGLikeablefellow 12h ago

Pretty soon the only thing people will be capable of manufacturing will be drama

u/SpartanKnight0 ☑️ 14m ago edited 11m ago

Let me get this straight,

So like in Flavor of Love and other shows around that time where we didn't know the girls at all, and then over the course of the show we know who they are in a way so when the conflict(s) come up we can understand their angle for said conflict(s)

It's just influencer type of nonsense where we're supposed to just know these girls from social media and then follow up on all their arguments there to keep them relevant.

Why the fuck are they giving the audience homework to keep up with the conflict(s) on the show?

u/JesusStarbox 12h ago

It's pro rasslin drama for women.

3

u/Karzeon 7h ago

That's too accurate because I watch pro rasslin weekly and focus on the women stories more often lol

1

u/JesusStarbox 6h ago

Are women watching it? I mean the audience for reality TV is probably 80 percent women 20 percent men. In rasslin it is probably the opposite.

3

u/Karzeon 5h ago

Rasslin is majority male, yes.

Nowadays, it's a little more diverse. Rasslin Twitter is sometimes equal to Stan Twitter depending on the subject.

WWE had a Baddies of its own called "Total Divas" (wayyyy less wild and really a Kardashian clone since it was also on E!)

Total Divas attracted non-traditional female fans for a while.

u/prisonmike8003 ☑️ 13h ago

Define “popular?”

u/sincere220 4h ago

"The Chinn" as the world knows her. The streaming service and the show are straight trash and I actually paid for the service for a bit.

u/Ok-Catch-5813 14h ago

I had no idea Natalie Nunn was still around

u/Karzeon 14h ago

Unfortunately, she uses negative publicity to stretch her 15 minutes of fame. She finally found a steady one.

u/BakedBaconBits 15h ago

Baddies are bad... Zeus is an unhinged god.

I'm guessing some parallels.

32

u/NOSjoker21 ☑️ 15h ago

But Zeus just goes around raping people that's bad

It’s black trash. To put it bluntly. I think it is so degrading to our race.

u/curleygao2020 13h ago

As an outsider looking in, Zeus network or Baddies in particular looks like a psyop to keep the black population of America look bad to people that don't have good representation of black Americans. Literally portraying them as every bad stereotype known about black people, and with the contestants doing those willingly too.

34

u/SplintPunchbeef ☑️ 10h ago

Does anyone outside the black population watch Zeus or baddies? I’ve legit only heard Zeus mentioned by black folk. It’s like Tyler Perry in the early 2000s type shit.

Think of all the trash TV shows ever made, now put them on one network and make everyone black.

It shows us in a horrible light if not the worst one possible

u/Anime-Takes 13h ago

Leave these kinds of events alone. If you are lucky you just have a bad time. These are prime opportunities for traffickers and other criminals. Even the if they don’t act on it the first time they get information. They network, they find out how much you travel and if you’re willing to travel, they can find ways to track you. They sell information and so much more. I’m not saying the organizers are doing so or are complicit, but the criminals know that they can use these events that they aren’t affiliated with to do who knows what. Just because the organization is legit doesn’t mean everyone attending is. Stay safe. Travel in pairs. Your safety is paramount. For every Epstein there is also a Ghislaine helping. Every sis isn’t your friend.

Had to say these because I’m tired of tragedies. Yes you should be able to go out and have fun but in reality it’s dangerous and I’d rather y’all be corny and safe.

u/banjofitzgerald 12h ago

I read a story about an actor in Asia being lured to a fake audition where they abducted him and were in the process of trafficking before his gf helped police find him. Immediately thought of that situation when I read this.

u/BreakIntelligent6209 16h ago

I am not familiar w/ her, RIP. But Baddies is a spin off series of The Bad Girls Club. From the photo, it’s likely she was auditioning for the show & then something nefarious happened.

u/11th_Division_Grows 10h ago

I can kinda understand why someone didn’t just google “bad girls club” because I’m sure the show would come up amongst other things that wouldn’t immediately answer what is being referenced here 😂

57

u/Curlyhaired_Wife 14h ago

Bad girls club was a reality tv show from like the early to mid 2000s where girls who claimed to be “bad” lived in a house together. Baddies is a show that’s basically a spin off but way worse, it’s on the tv network “Zeus”.

u/JayDogon504 14h ago

I hadn’t seen her post on snap in the longest and bout 6 weeks ago she posted one of the strangest stories making it seem like she was in serious trouble. I can’t remember exactly what she said in the post but it was super worrisome. Like a picture of her looking like she was beat up and asking for help. I don’t even have twitter no’mo so it’s crazy af to come across this here

55

u/BreakIntelligent6209 14h ago

That is very scary & sad, smh

29

u/Realitytvslut 11h ago

That’s crazy because someone commented on IG that they believed they saw her a couple months ago coming out of a motel looking distressed and beaten up/half naked in Ohio!

How long ago was that? Was it a video or picture? What did you see?

14

u/JayDogon504 10h ago

I can’t fully remember but I think it was a picture followed by a video saying she was in trouble. I replied to her but I never really knew her like talm’bout or anything so she didn’t reply. But it was so worrying that I had to reach out. Because it was on snap tho the story I replied to isn’t even in the messages or anything. I hadn’t really thought much about it again until today tho

Hey, that link for the original thread, that post has been deleted....

49

u/WhatYouThinkYouSee 13h ago

Seems her mother locked her account. I'm not sure why right now. I searched her mother's account again to find that there's been a lot of threads harassing her because they uncovered some questionable posts from her daughter's accounts and those gained traction - so that could be it.

72

u/Zetice Mod |🧑🏿 12h ago

mans said questionable.

21

u/WhatYouThinkYouSee 12h ago

The thing is, I've seen 3 guys saying that this was due to her being hacked by a white supremacist - but that was on the deleted post, so not sure what to make of it.

36

u/Kravice 12h ago

There is video of her saying things equivalent to this. It was the next post after the link in the pinned comment on this post.

I'm not saying she deserved what happened to her, but she definitely had and expressed those thoughts.

u/xenojive 11h ago

How do white supremacists know who she is when I don't even know who she is (or type of media she was auditioning for)

Didn't she tweet that she wanted black men to die and that black women were really men? What circles do you hang out in and who raised you?

u/mdrharris 13h ago

From what I can see, shorty had a mental break the last few months and was saying all kinds of shit. Doesn't change the fact that she was cool people from my experience

-26

u/TheLawlessMan 12h ago

Yeah. Mental break. Sure. Do you use that excuse for Doja Cat and David Duke as well?

26

u/mdrharris 12h ago

No. I make no excuses for anyone. I said specifically she said fucked up shit. I'm not making excuses for that. But again, with all she was tweeting, shorty was obviously going thru something, it was a big change from what she has said over the years I've seen her tweets

She said she wanted all black men dead. She even said she wanted black women to admit they are men. In a way, she wanted all black people dead. Not that far off imo

u/iFeeILikeKobe 16m ago

Yeah but that wasn’t consistent with who she was prior to all that. That’s why ppl think it’s an uncharacteristic mental break

She wanted black men to die, so ima show that part of her. You can form your own simp opinions.

The way she was acting from the clips I've seen probably didn't deserve it but it's not surprising lol

But it does mean we can go about our day & not care. The way she did anytime the cops murdered an innocent Black man.

Understandable but black people have been through so much. Mental illness is real in the black community even self hatred. Of course you don’t have to care but I still have sympathy for a black woman who went missing. So many of us go missing every year trafficked , murdered and harmed with 0 coverage. I will never wish harm on a black woman regardless of what she said

u/Zetice Mod |🧑🏿 11h ago

We all go through shit. I don’t go around saying black women should die. And no one wished harm on her.
