Per the available reports, after initial products like body spray, deodorants, and body wash, other items such as soaps, shampoo, conditioners, and hair gels would be on the shelf. What’s more, none of the vitamin-infused goods sold under the label cost more than $10. In a separate post, a few days ago, Sean O’Malley introduced himself as the co-owner of ‘W”.

He wrote that the products from ‘W’ were meant for “champions and f**kers that live life to the fullest like me.” Subsequently, he urged everyone to rush to the nearest Walmart store to buy their goods and added, “Jake and I together will save the smelly.

Lexington, Kentucky-born Rubi Rose Benton gained mainstream fame through the music video for the single ‘Bad and Boujee’ by the hip-hop group Migos. Other works, such as the one done with rapper Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion, further contributed to her popularity. Additionally, she works as an OnlyFans model.

A Swift and Varied Response 

Most of the followers who commented didn’t have anything severely adverse to say about Rubi Rose joining the ‘W Avengers’ team. However, a few remained a bit skeptical. Let’s check out what some of the users wrote.

This user couldn’t help but burst into laughter after going through the update on Rubi Rose joining ‘W’. According to them, the OnlyFans model is neither widely known nor influential on an international scale. “Nothing about Rubi is a global brand. lol,” the user said. Then this follower seems to wonder how Jake Paul and his team are giving undue importance to an OnlyFans model. They wrote, “You really hyping up an OnlyFans model.

But this user appears to be admiring Jake Paul’s enthusiasm and dedication. After all, Jake Paul is making significant efforts to evolve as many celebrities as he can to help promote his new venture. The user said, “Getting everybody for this product, he goin in.” But this fan appeared more concerned about what ‘The Problem Child’ was putting on the table. They appreciated all the steps Paul is taking to get more limelight for ‘W’. However, the fan sounded more keen on the range of products the company would be making available. “Love the rollout, but I would like to know more about what products you all actually offer.” The fan said.

According to them, perhaps ‘Sugar’ joined Jake Paul to help him deal with Mike Perry ahead of their clash in Florida. The fan’s message read, “I bet Sean helping him out with Perry.

Be it in the ring or outside of it, there are clearly no bounds to ‘The Problem Child’s dreams and ambitions. As one of the users highlighted, he is leaving no stone unturned to ensure success for his new business.
