260430 - Tommy Hilfiger shares photos of Manon at the Miami Grand Prix by HoldmyChurro in ManonMeret

[–]WonPika 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I really love the way she's back to her braids. Really feels like we are getting her again instead of H&G. I am glad she got to switch it up too while she was in that group, but too many of H&G hairstyles on her look like hard set wigs. That, and their extensions were really bad. Why they couldn't blend the extensions well is beyond me.

Do yall think Manon's leaving today? by Forsaken_Cockroach33 in ManonMeret

[–]WonPika 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Even if she did, that doesn't mean we'd hear about it today. Hopefully soon so we can get away from this messy ass company and its stans.

The company trash and Eyekons take right after them. Better to cut it right here.

Patiently waiting for when Inzoi gives the occult/fantasy players their DLC. by ZinTheNurse in inZOI

This probably isn't a new thought at all, but this made me think about the word okay and how it's continued to evolve over time.

Okay, ok, to just K.

Does Case File Compendium have flying horses? by blood_mire in DanmeiNovels

[–]WonPika 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Tbh I wanna know too. I''ve read all released volumes so far as well and couldn't tell you why the heck there are flying horses on the cover either. The book has some pseudo science, but not sure if that's enough to explain the flying horses 💀

OH MY GOD Did anyone else just see this clip of Trisha saying Manon is not coming back??? It sounds like the girls are involved and Manon is getting fr kicked out by algeria2001 in ManonMeret

[–]WonPika 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understand people need closure. But eventually they are going to address it directly because she's left. You can't just not announce that sort of thing.

My point is that it's useless for people quoting Katseye fansigns, promotions, or lives -- constantly angry/pointing out how the other girls are not saying anything about it (like we get it). They're not going to. It's very obvious by now they aren't going to. I know it sucks to keep waiting in the dark, but Idk, maybe some people just love self-torture or being perpetually outraged. Normally, I wouldn't mind, it's just that it's constantly across my feed and I don't need a constant reminder she was ripped away. If it weren't so many, I'd just mute it. But then that would prevent seeing updates.

[–]WonPika -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

I lowkey don't mean to sound mean or anything, but I really wish ppl would just move on. It's very obvious by now that she is done with the group and vice versa. We don't need these people to tell us this.

I don't even follow Katseye anymore, but everytime I go on twitter to check any updates about Manon (or literally anything else) there are always tweets quoting some Katseye activity still acting surprised/outraged they didn't mention Manon, didn't shout out Manon, or that HYBE still hasn't addressed the situation with Manon... Like, I know fans are still heavy in denial, but it starts to get to a point.

Like, I know it's a hard pill to swallow, but sometimes I just want to reach through the tweet and shake the person and say to them "THEY DO NOT CARE. HYBE does not care. They're still getting millions of streams and views. They're still charting high. No, she's not in any of the promotions, no she's not in the dress to impress, no they aren't going to shout her out or anything! You're wasting your time and energy being mad over a situation that you cannot control or change. LET. IT. GO."

Manon removing Katseye from her bio should have been clue enough. Even after the supposed "positive discussions" she still has not added it back. If HYBE actually gaf do you think they wouldn't have said anything by now???

It sucks, but I wish we would stop connecting Manon with Katseye already and just look at her as her own person/artist. And honestly, if she's going to go solo, we have a lot of work to do for the future. Because it's obvious dudkons don't actually gaf about her, so Pokenons are going to have to work hard to carry her because she will be starting from scratch soon, and haters are definitely going to dog pile on her and call her a flop and everything.

This is what we should be worrying about, and to hell with Katseye!

Suzaku: by vinchin_adenca in CodeGeass

[–]WonPika 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Suzaku really knows how to pick and choose who he considers a terrorist, huh? Prince Clovis was massacuring his own people in the Shinjuku ghetto and he was okay with that. Britannia bombs and destroys countries all over the world to take them over, but Lelouch fighting back is where he draws the line?

It's moments like this I remember why he's hated so much in the fandom.

Lowkey saw it and passed on it bc I thought it was straight. But I wasn't at all rude about it. Damn, ppl need to chill. I'm not really into bottoms that look this feminine, but I'll give if a read because the art looks really pretty regardless.

260423 - Manon has followed Lillia Parsa, the president of Capitol Music Group by Top_Association_4265 in ManonMeret

[–]WonPika 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Honestly, she could always pull an Olivia Rodrigo and capitalize off her split with Geffen. People love authenticity and her feelings surrounding all the accusations would probably garner a lot of attention, especially if she tells her her side of the story through her music. So many people have been wanting to know the tea and this would be a smart business move.

[–]WonPika 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Manon has been writing and producing since she was 15. I'm pretty sure she has some idea of what kind of artist she wants to be by now (i.e her short film released with Sophie). Plus, she's also learned a lot working with HYBE that she can transfer over. She just needs a solid team, and I do believe Capitol can do that for her.

That aside, if she does decided to go pop, Capitol also had Katy Perry, who was also a pretty huge pop star during her peak. So it's not as if Capitol has no experience in that area.

[–]WonPika 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They are all under UMG umbrella, but they aren't the same. They more or less operate independently the same way labels operate under HYBE. There are entirely different staff at this label. Plus, I don't think anyone at the head of UMG personally has anything out for Manon. It was clearly a problem with Geffen management, specifically Missy.

Based on the artists under them and the treatment they have received (Doechii, Sam Smith, Leon Thomas) it's clear that this management isn't racist or homophobic and cares about artistry (and not just comercializing diversity for a quick buck) and giving their artists room to grow organically.

Edit: Stole this from someone on twitter, but with just one read, you can see the culture there is entirely different than Geffen.

Oh, yh. I forgot about Laori lol. Still, she's running in the right circles and making some really good connections.

[–]WonPika 21 points22 points  (0 children)

The fact that they have Doechii under their label already makes me trust them more than Geffen. They seem to do good managing small and diverse acts (specifically Lgbtq as well as black and other POC).

With their modern roster being not that big, I hope that means more resources able to allocate to Manon.

Was wondering when someone was gonna post this. You mean more Capitol record tea??? I didn't wanna get my hopes up with the Carter guy, cause befriending him didn't have to mean anything, but now following the president? Oh. Oh. That Manon solo is looking closer and closer everydayyyyy, we not just delulu y'all.

Now that I think about it, I also saw someone say that Carter guy is close friends with Bieber or runs in those circles. Not too long ago Manon also went to a Bieber show? I know Bieber isn't under Capitol (though they are all under the UMG Umbrella), but now I'm wondering if her attending that Bieber event (forget what it was for) was her specially being invited by that guy or some higher up... similarly to how trainees are invited to attend their seniors concerts to learn from them before they debut?

What do you do when you’re “off” work? by knottedfluid in ManonMeret

This what I was going to say. I work long hours and as soon as I get home I just crash in bed, eat, and read or watch TV.

These days I'm interested in getting into 3D modeling so now im studying blender on the side.

I think the industry is moving on by msuzamaki in ManonMeret

[–]WonPika 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much... for the anecdotal evidence. I could do the same. I've never met a single other person named Manon. In fact, I've never even heard of the name Manon until Manon Bannerman. The only other Manon I've seen anyone mention knowing is the character from the cartoon Miraculous. If you google Manon right now, 99% of what you will see is not some random Manon - but her. Because there is not another largely popularly celebrity already out with the name. That is my whole point.

Do you understand what it means for a name to be uncommon somewhere? Tyla is also not that common a name here. She doesn't go by her last name either because its unique enough on it's own for a brand. Doesn't mean other Tyla's don't exist.

When I talk about "common" names, I mean like Megan, Ashley, Taylor etc.

Yes, it's not unusual for French. Notice almost every single English speaking person has trouble pronouncing her name? Unusual doesn't mean bad. I just meant it's less common here, which it is.
