Miriam is a delight.. she makes me laugh so much ... she has no filter and it makes her so refreshing to watch. What a lady

@hayleygolding4187 2 года назад

Exactly why I love her so much! She says what she feels, even if it's terribly unpopular. THAT is honesty! (I agree with most of what she says mind you!)

@unlokia 2 года назад

Not when she’s using such horrible language she’s not.

@hayleygolding4187 2 года назад

@@unlokia I have to disagree. Her lack of filter is refreshing, in an age of social media, where you have no idea what or whom you are interacting with. At least you know exactly what Miriam's intentions are. I'm sure that Miriam would agree with me on this: if you don't like how she comes across, then the solution is not to watch or listen to her. There are many, many people who find her a joy, including myself. I cannot abide people who hide behind a facade.
