I hate all those comments being like "he needs to get someone like Rosa Ree" lol she was just an artist trying to help out another 'artist'. There was nothing for Kim to feel threatened against. She is not interested in stealing ya man Kimbaaaaaaaali. 😒
It’s our theory, that Usman and his 2 friends are scamming Kimbály and the show (while I’m sure they are willing participants and know what’s going on). They chose a superfan, Usman being the bait, so they can land on the show once again. That’s why the conversations between the 3 friends is like bad Nollywood acting. Example: the two friends attacking Kimbály in the car and Usman “standing up” for her, as if he was reading lines. She is delusional, and they are scamming. I just wish they would rehearse more so it’s more believable.
When I was 11, I was certain If I could just meet Brian Littrell from the Backstreet Boys, he would fall in love with me and we’d live happily ever after.
That is how Kimberly acts with Usman. But she’s 50 and he’s not famous.
Although, I would’ve appreciated her saying “We’re moving too slow, and time is money. How can I help?”
Am I being too nice? 😂
I have tears in my eyes reading this, I love Huzoor. If this doesn't change anyone's prejudice and sinister thoughts over on the other subreddit, nothing will. May Allah continue to protect, guide and grant health to Hazrat Khalifatul Masih V (atba) to lead this Jama'at forward. Justice will prevail InshaAllah.

Maybe I'm just too cynical, but my bs detector is going off whenever Kim and Usman are on the screen. I get the feeling Sharp/TLC wanted a black African for the season, but with BGL being persona non grata and Angela being not far behind, they were stuck having to either invest time and effort into finding a new couple or just faking a storyline to fill airtime. So they went with the easy route; promised to fund a music video for Usman on Zanzibar as well as some other gifts like a new laptop and a PS5. They then found a 90 Day superfan who fit their physical needs (ie. oldgly woman) and was willing to humiliate herself for the cameras so she could get enough money for cosmetic surgeries and a little internet fame to boot, and thus fabricated the Usman/Kim storyline. It feels so fake and forced because it is!

Looks like the Jamaat is going to have to come out with an explainer. As many of us here have predicted all along, Jamaat has lied about who reported the crime to the police first. Huzur instead chose to handle this in-house, which in my opinion, is incredibly wrong for a multitude of reasons, namely that Jamaat does not have the exerptise to handle an allegation as serious as rape, whilst furthermore, these men all hold positions of power and authority, and need to be questioned in an unbiased manner.
Regardless of this, it's extremely sad to see how the Jamaat has lied about who went to the police first. I refer you back to the statement by Rafiq Ahmad Hayat (Ameer UK) on December 21 2021:
>"The community reported the matter to the police without delay and before any complaint or report was made to the police by any of the parties involved"
Sad to see my fellow Ahmadis on the other sub-reddit claiming this is some sort of win. May God Guide them.
