Her heart is in the right place but my goodness Jameela is annoying

tea

[vaels]

that's my main takeaway here. she has some good points but her delivery is soo condescending and like, tumblr-warrior-esque.

[valentinenoir]

Tumblr warrior is the perfect way to describe her tbh

Also she just tweeted and deleted something homophobic last week so like... Good for calling out VS but look in the mirror bc you also need to ~~use your big platform sis

I feel like the nepo models have skewed our views on modeling more broadly.

I know plus size modeling/brands are growing, but I remember all those stories about young models (particularly non-USA models) who enter the industry and face hella exploitation (financial, sexual, etc.)

Nepotism models like Gigi can gain weight, fluctuate and still book jobs. I don't even think they have to attend castings at all instead they get invited to walk for designers meanwhile models from other countries, third world included have to work 10x harder just to get probably 1/4 of pay nepotism models get. Already rich and privileged kids like Kendall, Gigi, and Bella THRIVE and get even richer in the fashion industry- they're top paid and millionaires. Spanish model Blanca Padilla said it best:

I agree with what [Gigi] said. I don't have a problem with the fact that you're a curvy girl on the runway, I support that. But if it was me with your same measurements going to a casting they would send me home to lose weight...Most of us have to conform to extreme measurements because otherwise we won't book any jobs while others have the privilege to say that designers love them despite their curves. Well, then, why do they love you? Maybe your millions of followers on Instagram might have something to do with it as well!"

I want to comment on both of them being wrong in their own ways but I'm just too tired
