Claim 5: “Now, it’s evolved into a $99 subscription service with online fitness, physical therapy classes and nutrition guidance, as well as bookable acupuncture, blowouts, beauticians, IV drips and more.”

There is no evidence in the provided search results that Kate Hernandez's PostParty offers a $99 subscription for fitness and beauty services; the search results for 'Postparty' refer to a completely different gaming product.
