Yashar Ali calls out Alison Roman for her "chola" costume, Alison snaps back

[spoil]

1. A lot of debate on this tweet of mine to the left. I have deleted it while keeping it here so that it can sit next to @alisoneroman’s tweet. This is photo was sitting on Alison’s MySpace page...you can google it. She has a recent history of being called out for appropriation. pic.twitter.com/HYHNQ2vjNI

How are you going to dress up as Amy without her signature beehive though?

I'd actually say that serves to PROVE it was an Amy costume. She has a Monroe piecing during those days and had a tattoo on her chest in the same area.

Allison is a bitch but that's an Amy Winehouse costume. A lazy Amy Winehouse costume but an Amy Winehouse costume.

[megalixer]

right? either the costume is lazy or the excuse is

[pacehim]

I dont even know who the hell this is.

When are people gonna come for Gwen Stefani's ass though? She was the ultimate culture vulture. Indian, japanese, black, and Hispanic

[tippani]

I've seen small BIPOC creators exposing her on YouTube, but that was months/years ago.

ONTD used to come after her back in the day, especially with the whole Harajuku girls thing when it was revealed that none of them were allowed to talk and she was using living people as props.

[pciam]

she was the BIGGEST one. I think all of them were guilty of it (even my fav Xtina during Stripped), but Gwen.. she went super extra with it all the time.

You can clearly tell she drew on eyebrows to mimic a chola in that picture. Who she trying to kid?

[babyyoda]

MTE plus she has the blue eye shadow and an old English tattoo, the entire aesthetic put together is a rip off of chola culture imo

[stewie_e]

Amy Winehouse? Uh huh.

I want Yashar banned from ONTD and the internet in general tbh.

He really thought he was gonna earn chrissy brownie points by exposing allison and in the end he only showed us his bias and that chrissy and john dressed up as a "cowboy and indian". What a spectacular backfire.

But I'm sure in true chrissy and yashar form they will ignore it and never apologize themselves

[slaughtermatic]

okay i get someone dug up a photo of amy in a white tank eventually but why the mole, the eyebrows and the eyeshadow? and the woman literally said "i prob didnt look at any photos beforehand". the whole thing is so weird.

[evett]

Dug up? It's the main pic on Amy's wiki page. If I had to describe amy off the top of my head it was her in a tank top or strappy dress with a bra showing. It was kinda her look.

Amy had a mole piercing

"I probably didnt look at any photos" answers the rest of that

Girl someone asks you what Amy Winehouse looks like and you're going to describe her as the singer in the tank top with her bra showing?

LOL
