Tanner & Jade Tolbert - BIP 2 - Discussion

Awww...good for them. I have a soft spot for these two cause I enjoyed watching them on BIP.

I like to get updates here and if shilling is working for them, super. Someone will soon be taking their place. I like that they are using their earnings on a new house and starting a family.

I don't follow anyone on SM or watch any of the post Bachelor Marriage Boot Camp/Wife Swap shoes so I can stay in my happy place with good feelings for these couples.

to the happy couple wishing them well on this joyous journey.

Yeah People and the others picked it up but the original announcement (and who payment would come from if money was paid) was In Touch.

Personally, I still prefer couples just announcing on their social media but I know I'm mainly alone there. Lol

Like there was a snowball's chance Jade and Tanner of all people would miss out on the paycheck.

Haha! Very true. I'm anticipating every detail of the pregnancy and birth to be released to a mag as well. And probably some overstating too.

But on the plus side for these two, they now have even more shilling opportunities.

Well...babies are expensive, so that totally justifies it, right? They've got to continue to shill to pay the bills on the house IG built.  Now we're just adding a baby that will be clothed and fed by IG.

Ah, now I get it. I would say announce on social media also, but if there's $$$ involved, I imagine this couple would definitely want to get paid, IMO.

I get it. I don't blame them. 

But what a f'd up world we live in. People working jobs around the clock barely scraping by. 

But if you are pretty enough, sign up for a ridiculous dating show, post some crap on IG and roll it in.  I mean, Jade the cosmetician - no education, no ambition, nothing. In what world should she be living the high life in her McMansion with her horse, everything paid for by the 5 minutes of "work" posting a tooth whitening add and picking out a good IG filter. 

Our society has its priorities seriously messed up.

Jade has a horse?

Yup. It was her Christmas present from Tanner.

tbh, she could always have been with a sugar daddy. if she weren't with tanner or had this opp, i could see her down that route. anyways, congrats to the king and queen of shilling. one day, it might be all over so i guess it's why they continue to do it.

How much do we guess shilling brings in a month for them? And what happens when those opportunities stop?

They do not live in a high cost area. She can still be a stay at home mom if they invest their current shilling. Him, being in car sales, is always going to work like a dog for not great bucks. So hopefully, they invest while they can for that rainy day.

On RS podcast - JJ made a comment "if you are going to pay me $1000 to post a picture - I am going to post a picture, and I am not really anybody - not everyone is Tanner and Jade". Based on that comment alone I expect Jade/Tanner make a good buck for even one photos more than $1K it seems - which is insane. Based on twitter followers:

Jade - 773K
Tanner - 450K
JJ - 159K

So if Jade has 5 times the followers - would she get 5 times the pay On the last shilling post between the three Jade 9K likes; Tanner - 3K likes; JJ - 1K likes
In the last month they (Jade/Tanner) both had 4 IG shilling posts - so 8 total - even if they got $2K-$3K for each photo - which based on JJ's comments I think is definitely reasonable - they are earning 16K-24K/mth - that is INSANE!
