THEIR BEST LIFE - Part 16 - Rags to Riches (Sims 4 Get Famous)

[@Bizzee_Bee]

If you buy a better fridge and a better stove then the food quality should increase and lady might not be such a blarffy about it

[@ebony9891]

😂

[@lucille-1708]

poor holly, in the start of this series she just wanted to date lady and now her life's basically a soap opera

[@AgnesCrumplebottom]

That's fame, baby 🥖🥖

[@alisonwonderland4914]

she didn't even want to date lady. lady forced her relationship on to holly. so holly is the victim here.

[@madapigi1]

that's exactly the same with thorne actually lol

[@minkyaw5781]

Lady is the real villain here

[@undrhil]

@@minkyaw5781 History is in the mind of the teller. Looking back, Lady will not see herself as the villain 😂

[@laughingturtle1864]

What I do with my kids and their cousins/half siblings is make a club with Get Together, and make the club activities things like "do homework" and "be funny" or friendly and play or whatever. Then you can have them call a club gathering every time they need to do homework. Then they all get their stuff done, increase their relationships, take care of social and fun...all in one lol. AND it takes care of your other kids in the world while you're they're not the active household. it's awesome!

[@ambibambi6479]

Laughing Turtle I do the exact same!

[@kaydwessie296]

I also do this! But I'm on Gen 6 now and there are too many cousins lol.

I want all 3 women to leave his cheating ass. With Lady, Octavia, and Holly are just best friends who are raising Thorne's kids while actively hating him. Making a Baby Momma's Against Thorne Club.

[@madelainefoord9586]

Like the movie 'The Other Woman' 😂😂

[@blankahutarkova3594]

I love the idea of the club

[@madapigi1]

You know lady is the worst right? stop acting like thorne is so bad lol Lady is probably the most horrible character ever. Or did you forge that she started dating holly to help her get famous, than she used thorne for the same reason, while cheating on holly, she had 2 kid with him and then she dumped him and left him with nothing lol

[@jackib5369]

Yes they should leave him but he is a good dad so he only allowed to visit them on weekend

[@rachaelstewart1383]

You should make a "Sons and daughters of Thorn Bayle" club. It would be so funny

I wish I had read this before making my comment. I called my club "The Spawn of Thorne Bailey." LOL

[@hairlikeafox]

Children of The Thorne Ahahahahahahaaha

[@1bbbewitched]

Plot twist all three ladies are using Thorn to have a woman love triangle.

[@undrhil]

Further plot twist: there are three Thorne Baileys....

[@wildoneizzy]

I figured they were just using him to have children, honestly. Like Lady knows about Holly wanting a kid and suggested that she influence Thorne to knock her up so that their children can be related.

[@adrienners]

Thorne is just a means to have kids

[@MrDanAng1]

Lady and Thorne's x-wife/soon-to-be-wife (I can't remember her name now, how embarrasing!) should seek comfort in each others arms. They both been cheated on by their fiance/fiancee, let them have their revenge!

[@julietteford174]

[@tjg813]

Please when you move make a big space for the kids full of everything a kid could ever want! I feel so bad for them, they’ve gone for so long without toys and now didn’t get to have Christmas. ☹️

[@LivinInSim]

Great idea! Also, the kids could check out the Drama Club, if it's not just for Teens. If it is, keep in mind for when they are, and Orange could join, too.

[@mecaka9077]

He already did the house build for the one they're moving into and it does have a great big playroom for them. The Luxury Mansion Build.

[@moonbaby1723]

I love the way he addressed the half sibling thing and then immediately call them step brother and sisters again! Lol

[@krisb933]

moonbaby1723 lol I noticed that as well

[@iresvanbeek]

If you put the money tree in your household inventory and sell each money fruit (whatever it’s called) then you will get like $8000 for each, which gives you much more money faster.. Just a little tip! Only it takes a bit more time but who cares it’s MORE money (:

[@ilke1018]

when the door is set as the front door, the key holders can get in but random people cant

[@LivinInSim]

Up, but I can't believe you have to buy a pack to control access to a house that way...you can lock doors, but you can't give your friends a key unless you have GF and maybe CL. They're always sticking generic stuff that is desirable, into a pack, but it has nothing to do with a pack. What, only celebrities are likely give their friends a key? I'm starting to get a LOT of stuff in my game, so I'd like to start picking and choosing packs, but with this happening it's darn difficult. IMO, the residence key thing should have been in the Patch.

[@ilke1018]

im pretty sure giving keys came with city living, but i totally agree!

[@beafbuger]

you called your daughter trash????? iconic

[@ciram9082]

Should've named the spin off "The Wild Thorn Bailey" because old school Nickelodeon.

[@tjg813]

[@chelby1310]

plot twist: Lady and Holly are now using Thorne together to start their future family so they get/have kids without adopting ((the drama never ends and the plot thickens))

[@koriliano7823]

Mary Elizabeth but this way Holly gets to have a biological child that’s related to Lady’s kids.

[@Kijikun]

That would make it all less creepy

[@madapigi1]

Korilian O no lady is just using both of them lol Do you really think james cares about love at this point

[@elinee8348]

What Holly knew all of it from the start and just played along to suddenly strike back

[@sajeldunlop9912]

When you skip the studio build and jump straight into it, the transition from tiny trailer park to huge, yet empty studio lot was hilarious. Totally agree with making fake sets all over the place too 😂

[@chayanaforde2471]

to be honest, they should have shoots for a gig that lasts a couple of days like actual movies, so you could earn $6000 3 days in a row, then have a break between gigs, because its the waiting between gigs which hinders how much money you make in a week

[@jaiyapapaya]

I think that Orange, Blue and Bruss should all become besties and move into an apartment together when they're teens/ young adults

[@dmarie8743]

Omg Now you have to build a real life “family sitcom” type set for her to actually live in. Like fresh prince air full house. Lmao One long line of different rooms 😂😂 Omg please do that.

[@Linda220677]

You should add Max Power to the mix and Lady could get together with him and they'd have their portraits hanging up in the mansion. They could also have a kid/kids together 😮

[@SavvySavs98]

“We should put Chris Pratt in here and make him a global superstar” But name him Crisp Rat 😂

[@Nilinthil]

use the "Chef's Kitchen" lot trait, it will make her inspired and the food will usually be excellent and you don't have to waste money on the caterer, if you don't want Lady to get uncomfortable from normal food... and in the same time, she will level the cooking skill much faster.. ;-)

[@angel7171972]

Have a lot trait of Chef's Kitchen and Lady will always make excellent food

[@andalongjacket]

A lot of times the craft services food on acting gigs is excellent quality. You can just drag the whole dish into your inventory and have guaranteed non-annoying food for a few days. I usually steal at least enough to get my two-Sim household through to the next gig.

[@BlckSWANWhtRbbt]

I feel Lady can't get too upset about Holly having a baby with Thorne while they're dating since Lady did the exact same thing.

[@Lexi_Plays_Games]

For the locked doors and Holly thing, create a club and add all of the celeb sims to it you want to invite over, then on the door allow access to club members. You could also give them a key to your house, but it's annoying because they come over at all hours of the night so you can never go to super speed.

[@peacheetea]

50 minutes of james talking about other let's plays

[@nyxitylee2094]

Poor, poor Brussels and Blueberry. Such a crazy life they live so far. "Sis, you and me are going to leave here and live simple, peaceful, normal lives one day." Octavia is superwoman. She got smashed in between two vault doors. You could even see her booty sticking out, but she's like, "I'm all good. and proceeds to produce food out of nowhere."

[@SwagMastaSylvia]

i forgot that the money you put in the vault added to the bills so my sims had $133,000+ in bills.

When ever James finds something he said funny, he just repeats it and laughs like he heard it for the first time... so bizarre and funny 😂

[@ChestersonJack]

I can imagine Max Power respecting Lady’s using of people to her own ends. “I’ve been watching your family for generations, it’s astonishing to see what you can accomplish when you put your minds to it. I must say, it’s an honor to meet a Bigwallet in person.”

[@melissalomeli1527]

Semaj! You can talk to someone inside the vault, do the "make fans swoon" interaction, and then close and lock the vault while they are passed out. It's worked for me, but the sim locked inside (for me it was Thorne Bailey lol) never actually died.

[@noukkiepoukkie]

You can keep that door unlocked, because it is set as the front door, so people won't randomly enter the lot

[@neelamcadam1813]

Friend: what did you get for Christmas? Brussels: whats Christmas?

[@HannahJarestam]

Story wise regarding the money trees 🌳: Lady stole some rare special seed or some genetically engineered seed from HER FATHER, who was planning on selling them for his own business. She hasn’t had contact with the family due to her stealing this. They figure it’s her BUT they don’t know for certain and due to her being their child don’t want to drag the police into the whole situation. Also, the kids names show that Lady maybe cares more about her family then what it seems, although maybe even she isn’t aware 😱😱 Have been watching way too much true crime shows lately but it all fits #solved #paybackforbeingarejectchild

[@YourNeighborhoodFag]

Lady should start coming over w the kids under the guise of trying to facilitate a relationship between the kids but REALLY shes just get hammered w Octavia since shes an alcoholic and they get it in

[@Anne21110]

I realize commenting 6 months later may be totally useless but I am getting into the "rags and riches" series only now... So I've been pondering on the paycheck issue and I believe that may be because you rush through the work day and always leave early. Sims get paid by the worked HOUR. So when you show up late at work or when you leave early, you're usually paid less. In the "get to work" DLC, you get paid more when you decide to stay at work late. I assume the same thing is applied to actor's work day. Even if you've realized all required tasks, because you didn't stay the required amount of time, you lose some of your paycheck... Maybe you thought about it in the upcoming videos - if so, I apologize, I am just catching up.

[@ebony9891]

I like how people are mad at Thorne and hate him when really it’s James that’s making Thorne do it 😂

[@kimpavon9970]

I love the trailer ideaaa and the movie set!!! Aside from a mansion this is unique

[@AbsyntheNoir]

Two ideas: 1. Develop the wellness skill until you can teleport. Then have Lady talk to someone or woohoo with some one in the vault and have Blueberry or Brussels lock the vault. Once Lady is done she can teleport out. I don’t know if kids can lock vaults or if they can be locked while in use so it might not work at all, just an idea I had. 2. You could make holidays to remind yourself to release a new song. I also don’t know if you can make holidays with very few or no traditions/events. This might be tedious but you might be more likely to not be dropped by your company. (NOTE I don’t know if either of my ideas are possible because I don’t have the expansion packs myself.)

[@analauranobrega]

Please age up Orange so he can date Trash (he was supposed to be a teenager anyway)

[@astra-edits9797]

I can't remember the plan too well but what if after Lady finds out about Holly's pregnancy Lady tries to pursue Octavia, woohoo in the vault, lock her in the vault to kill her and then take Orange away from Thorne.

[@laurenb92]

Plot twist: (Lady technically got pregnant by Thorn while being in a relationship with Holly) So while Thorn is trying to use Holly to get back at Lady, Holly is actually using Thorn as a way to get pregnant. That way when she gets married to Lady all of their children will have the same father! But then it backfires on her because Lady feels betrayed by Holly for having a child with Thorn; and Thorn is left with yet another child! When all Holly wanted from the beginning was to be with Lady... the end. SORRY but I couldn't help myself. EDIT: wrote this before reading the comments :/

[@CaitlintheCasual]

As soon as I saw the caterer I was like, "isn't that her brother?" I was waiting for James to realize.

[@JennaKarro]

To use the house for camera work, I am guessing you put the green screens on the wrong wall. You should have placed them on the sides. You cannot see around the house, so it it perfect for wide front shots.

[@MasterOfNinjas16]

I'm not surprised that the kids went to the park at 10:30 at night. Lady ignores Holly. Why would she pay any kind of attention to her kids?

[@kaboomie0unnie]

Plot twist: Lady ends up with Octavia in the end

[@tabytastick]

So when you tell 2 Sims to do the same thing one will always get cancelled out. Because the first Sim get there and then uses the object (ie the fridge getting food) the object can not be used by the second sim. Blueberry even waved her hand saying she couldn't use the fridge because Brussels was already there. Suggestion: Wait a few seconds before instructing the second sim.
