I generally don't mind the Mel ribbing but they utilize as a crutch too often. Borders on awkward sometimes


Yea it starts out “fun” and quickly dissolves into nikkas acting like little boys who make fun of the popular girl because they can’t have her. Especially with Flip.

Ehh, I can believe it. 1. I think dude math is way off. Seems like he used those 30k-70k(only reached this on her birthdays) and applied it over every day in a month. She didnt work every day. It was probably something like every friday and saturday. So 60k-140k with closer to 60k being the average which comes out to 240k a month, close to 3M a year. You got nikkas like Joe that was happily spending 1k a night and this is before he got money and spending 10k now. You know the street nikkas was spending crazy bread trying to compete with each other. You got nikkas that spend crazy money on text msgs on OF, those same types would blow crazy money in person too.

2. She probably talking about what she made the club that night in receipts and she got a piece of that gross. Even if she is talking about what she brought home, still believable :yeshrug:

She said she worked one night per week. I’d imagine she was also getting paid an appearance fee by the venue. Also I wonder was she doing this before IG? I’d imagine she would get paid more back then before there was widespread access to seeing women like her everyday on IG.

OGs, why was Bernice able to make so much bread off of bartending and appearances but Mel wasn’t?

Well, as you see in this thread, most mfs think Mel don't hold a candle to Bernice so they wouldn't even waste the time/money lol.

And then on top of that, Mel doesn't like to lean into her "past" (even tho she had or had an active OF for a min), and be out here ass'd out & reduced to airhead bottle girl bimbo who u might could buy for a night.

You see she was throwing sum shots @ the low at BB wit the whole "What do they have you talk to kids at school about?" :dead:

She wasn't the only bartender so she had a section and you know brehs lollygagged so that means she would need to have several multi-thousand tabs in one night. Math ain't mathing. With that said there's a reason a lot of og thots quietly went back to bartending.

Yeah no doubt she was making bank. Just don't seem logical that she was making as much as she's saying unless she was doing way more than bartending. I think that's what she was getting at saying "don't tip me now, tip me later on".

So that dude math in that tweet all the way off basing it off every day. 1 night a week on probably the club's busiest night and she was an "attraction" type deal. I can see it. For years the pod has been talking about how the bartenders were bigger than the strippers in NY. Hell Joe now spends 10k at the strip club. Admitted to spending at least 1k a night when BB was bartending. It's not hard to see how she telling the truth. Especially when she just charging for drinks/bottles.

Probably trash maneuvering as far as image goes, You had game talking about she drives a honda accord. When she got into it with Cam, he brought up how Ice T smashed in the bathroom for 2k. Also I dont think she was around when the bartending stuff popped off really. She been in LA for years before she came to the east coast for the pod. From the way Joe talks, she was trying to catch white bank/finance ppl before she left for LA when she was in NY. Compare that to BB who even at 40+ was linked to Jaylen brown like a year or two ago.

That’s true. The internet and apps like YouTube lowkey destroyed her chances of catching a dude like that. In the early 2000s I could imagine some successful simps making excuses for Mel’s King Mag covers and music videos. But then YouTube came along in ‘05. Imagine introducing your family to Mel, they google her and the YouTube video of her with Gloria Velez and Sisqo in a hotel room pops up. Her past is all over the internet.
