I hope Lamar wins AFP. Rarely have we seen an houseguest who has been so without guile. Fresh honesty .
Now honestly, I missed most of the season but the tweets and highlights did not disappoint .

Okay, I see what Teddi is doing (which I see lots of "celebrities" do on IG. She just wants a screenshot that you "followed @climbr_official" to be eligible to win the climber. I see celebrities do that everyday on IG to "like" a page to win something.
Whether or not you vote for her for AFP has nothing to do with winning the climber. She wasn't long enough to be anyone's favorite player anyways.

I'm surprised they allow that on IG, Lexie. If you do that on Facebook, they'll close or disable your account, and META owns them both.

See, I could never get away with this, so not sure why she can. I still think it could be reported, because I'm sure she isn't following all the legal guidelines:

What is posted is above is after Teddi changed it. She caught a ton of flack online. It only said text Teddi to 21523 for a chance to win the climber. She can be so ridiculous.

Kar... I see it every day with some reality star or celebrity offering something for free if someone likes an account or tag others to like an account. One of the worst offenders is Kim Zolciak Biermann and her daughters Brielle and Arianna. I actually feel like I'm getting scammed when I'm reading her posts. She catches some serious hell on IG for all of her "tag/like to win" posts.

Lexie, so they only enforce the rules against businesses? That pisses me off.

Kar - Maybe that's how the businesses get around it by having "celebrities" making the posts.

Teddys original post did not say it was voting for her to be AFH. It just said to text the number with the name Teddy on it and send her a screen shot of the text to be eligible. Not sure if someone said something or not but she changed it to let them know it was for voting.

Rieann and Cruz are exactly right! Good catch. When I cut and paste Teddi's IG post above, I did not notice that she had changed it from the one I had read originally.
This is the original one. I think you can agree that it nebulous
"Who wants to win my fave workout machine, the [CLMBR: Vertical Climber]?! Just text TEDDI to 21523, send me DM w/ screenshot as proof and like [and] comment on this post. I’ll be walking into the [Celebrity Big Brother] finale ready to work some stuff out and one of you will be getting a bad-ss workout,” she wrote in a since-edited post, adding that voting will be open until Wednesday and her climber winner will be announced that same day"
"Because Teddi didn’t clarify that the text would count as a CBB vote, she was quickly called out for her scheme"

I also liked Lamar and thought he was nice on CBB, so if he wins instead of Shanna, that would be OK too! ☺️

I think Shanna will win. I saw Hamsterwatch is pushing a Shanna for AFP

Shannon will probably win, but I can see Carson winning if a lot of people who only watch the tv show go and vote.
