  1. Also going back a little bit. I’m not sure why anyone is surprised more Asians weren’t cast. First of all Asia is not their largest buying demographic. Though of course it does have the potential to grow. However look at London and Paris. They didn’t cast an astronomical amount of English or French models. And because I have been asked not to say anything in regards to the racist comments from earlier I won’t other then to acknowledge that they were racist and completely unnecessary.

  3. I am sorry for hijacking this thread, but there's only so much bullshit that I'm willing to listen to. Sara and Taylor haven't done anything wrong and I'm tired of people trotting out the same song and dance to justify not liking them. If you don't like them fine, it's none of our business why but the hypocritical juvenile arguments of their alleged racism need to stop. I'm not even a fan of Sara but I can't stand the double standards, so in this regard I would defend anyone if they were being maligned this way. But again I'm sorry, this conversation didn't really belong in here as it has nothing to do with Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. So going back on track. I can't wait to see who gets the fantasy bra and what they come up with. We've seen good ones and bad ones, it'll be interesting to see what end of the spectrum it ends up on this year.
  4. Because if it was so damn triggering to you it wouldn't matter what color someones skin was it would still be fucking racist. When a black person says nigger does it miraculously have a different meaning? No it doesn't because it's association is still the fucking same. Don't be narrow minded. She was singing along to a fucking song, you know lyrics those things that make up a song? Don't be hypocritical. As for no one using it, I could care less, you're the one that got triggered because someone sang along to the song lyrics. It's a word. It's part of the English language and as such I don't necessarily think we should just ignore it just be aware of what it's associated with and what it represented it and use it appropriately. But I'm not going to be afraid to say it because it's "racist" As for accents I love how it's acceptable for someone to imitate an Australian accent, or a British accent or a southern accent but the minute any accent associated with someone of "color" is used it's racist. Oh that's right, that's because there's no such thing as white culture. I fucking hate social justice warriors who look for reasons to be offended. You seem to fall into that category. The hypocrisy is nauseating.
  5. If you're one of those people that thinks that singing along to a song and singing the lyrics that the artist felt was appropriate to put out there is racist you are part of the problem not the solution. Nigger shouldn't be said by white or black or brown or whatever fucking color you are because of it's racist association. So in this case blame the artist not the people singing along to the inane lyrics. But sure if you want to call that racist because you are a "person of color" go for it, but it's hypocritical at best and well the worst is something I can't say. As for the video chances are you never saw it and are you just jumping on the bandwagon because oh no perceived social injustice is being done. The video wasn't taken down regardless of what one or two people said as I was able to view it for the full 24 hours that snapchat keeps stories up as were about 40 other people I know. The idiot in the video was her boyfriend, but again as a "woman of color" feel free to jump on a bandwagon you don't even understand. The fact that you pulled out that excuse to justify this leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
  6. Singing song lyrics doesn't make you racist. As for the other video if you had actually seen it with regards to Taylor you wouldn't even be bringing it up. But it's funny people can't seem to let it go even when 90% of them have little to no idea as to actual content of the video.
  7. You apparently did want to create controversy though or you wouldn't have made a statement insinuating it had to do with race. Not to mention isnt Lais from Brazil, why aren't South Americans more supportive? Why is it that everything has to do with race now or the perceived racial injustice to anyone who isn't white?
  8. I can agree that if someone's work is warranted even if I don't like them that they deserve that respect however I don't particularly feel that Beyonce was original or innovative or has even had the best vocals. I think she marketed herself right and happened to become famous at a time that was right for her particular aesthetic, but I personally still feel she is incredibly overrated and not as great as quite a few people seem to think she is. As for Taylor I don't think she was as much of a train wreck as we were lead to believe. There were definitely moments when she over did it, but a lot of what we saw I chalk up to bad editing on the teams part. The camera didn't need to focus on her as much, but the girls were still walking. The editing team just chose not to clip them in as much as they did Taylor.
  9. It's not really slander it's a matter of opinion. Just because someone is popular and/or successful doesn't mean everyone has to like their work, their voice or their performances. I for one can't stand Beyonce. Yes she's insanely popular and incredibly successful but I find her music and voice overrated and her attitude a bit divaish. Her performances are overblown and a little gauche for my taste as well. However, I do agree that at this point I think she would be a terrible fit for VS. I mean they handled Gaga and Ariana Grande and of course Taylor Swift, but I can't see Beyonce fitting even remotely with their aesthetic.
  10. So last I checked if you impeach the president the vice president steps into the position. So please liberals.. Impeach the man standing between you and the guy who believes in rehabilitation for gays.

  12. I didn't care about the rest of your response because it was probably a bunch of chow-chow about opinions and how yours are basically more important. However that life you're living arguing about a panty pusher and the haves or have-nots of her career. Perhaps you should go live your life and not waste your time on here. I mean because your other shit is so important that you have to state it so that everyone is supposed to what? Feel inferior? Cheap tactics and poorly executed at best.
  13. I find both incredibly boring but simply because I like one picture in Sara's I'll go with her. Sara
