Bravo fans are still getting acquainted with the cast of The Valley and the likes of Janet Caperna. Of course, as reality TV fans are prone to do, they couldn’t trust the show to give them every detail about this new Bravolebrity and their past.
Indeed, Bravo fans have a knack for digging up old dirt on reality stars, for better or for worse. In Janet’s case, a Reddit user recently shared a screenshot of an article that showed Janet “making a peaceful protest about herself,” according to u/oo00ooo000. You can check out the post below.
Internet users haven’t taken kindly to Janet’s sign
The screenshot came from a piece by the Los Angeles Daily News. As the article reports, protestors were trying to “call attention to the negative effects of Airbnb-style short-term rentals.” They began chanting outside an affected building, waking up residents and non-residents, like Janet.
Elizabeth Chou reported, “Janet Elizabeth Fortener, 31, who was staying at her boyfriend’s apartment at The Hesby, walked out with her own protest sign — an erasable white board that read in blue marker, ‘I JUST WANT TO SLEEP IN / PLZ PROTEST L8R.’”
Redditors were not at all impressed with Janet’s display. Some users slammed her as “a Karen,” with another saying “What a privileged world she lives in.” Another user criticized her since the building wasn’t even her permanent residence: “She did all this over her crashpad, she isn’t some building resident being infringed on.”
One commenter claimed to have lived in the building, reporting, “The ABNB of it all is actually a huge issue, and this DID get management’s attention to do something about it. Janet once again coming in on the wrong side of history haha.” Of course, such a claim can’t be verified. The most upvoted comment slammed Janet as a symbol for those “inconvenienced” by activism.
The Valley continues Tuesdays at 9/8c on Bravo.
