#pumpkingate

Because they were taken at practically the same time. The SMA photoshoot and interviews, per a comment done by the photographer, and the presence of Jenn S. posting from ATL at the same time, was done the last full week of October 2022 before Halloween.

So, he did that photoshoot, he hopped a plane back to MA for Tara's Halloween party on Saturday. He was back in ATL in time to make the Pumpkingate post that Halloween Monday. Oh, and also to get things arranged to do that little video with Dwayne before SMA was announced on November 7th.

Have no idea if she was on the same plane from ATL with him, or if she made her way to MA from another location. (NYC?)

Oct 3rd - Carly followed Alba (no follow back)

Oct 31st - Tara's Halloween party (no proof Chris or Alba were there). Alba liked her "Halloween Wrap" post. Chris posted the Disney carved pumpkins. About 10 minutes later people found out it was the same pic like Elsas profile pic. Elsa changed her profile pic just a few minutes after that and deleted it later (10-15 minutes) (sidenote: 10 days til WN2) Chelsea commented but deleted it later

Nov 1st - Justin storied "Lolita" & JustJared posted article about pumpkingate and dating Alba

Nov 7th - Chris posted RedOne pic which Alba liked & ASP/Voting video & SMA announcement (Colbert)

Screenshots Part 1

Hello anon

That would have been right after the People magazines Sexiest Man Alive 2022 announcement, so the year long anniversary is coming soon given that #Pumpkingate (his Happy Halloween IG post) happened right around the same time on the 2-3rd November 2022 (Bless that Life Path days list)

We got a whole day and a half to enjoy the SMA content unbothered with no mention of trashbag only to have it completely ruined

Then the Book of Mormon story was posted the night before the pap walk marathon in the park was published and the situationship then forced down everyone's throats

Some lady who looks a lot like a woman who showed up later on at the Ghosted premiere in the background with darker hair posted a video on twitter that "just happened to catch them in the park" (the video where Trashbag looks directly at the camera, he drops her hand, she taps his arm, and then he glances behind him, I think some dude was busking in the background)

You can see her in the front there, she later deleted the video off twitter when the fans started "booing" but not before the screenshots and recording had already been taken and spread everywhere, convenient do you think? 🤷‍♀️

Sometime in early November anon, it will be a year

Wouldn't say creepy, but weird. Maybe Chris is the first serious boyfriend her daughter has 🤷‍♀️

I'll also say, pumpkingate seemed quite orchestrated. So kinda seems like it was planted on purpose. Why weeks back? They knew fans were still checking Alba's and her circle's socials (just like Chris' circle's) looking for something. They planted it on her mom's FB and IG because they knew that, as soon as Chris posted it, fans would do 1+1. There's the raising of the so-called soft launch for you.

When he first posted it, it was "Happy Halloween [red heart]"

Now it's "Happy Halloween [pumpkin] [ghost] [red heart]"

Did he do this later the day he posted it? Or even later than that?

Because that reeks of him reading the response in the fandom about the red heart being for her (ugh), and changing that to try to change perception of it.

Did I miss discussion of this because of my trip?

New semester! Same show, except there are some students on before me so it’s not going to start ~exactly~ on time every week.
