Knowing how big of a Genevieve fan @jj3 is, and being aware he has conversed with her on social media (it's out there on twitter if you care to dig into it), I give him the benefit of the doubt unless something comes up that suggests that the Genevieve that posted on here is not, in fact, Genevieve

So after looking at the Facebook video Genevieve posted about her frustration I will admit I'm not so sure the poster here is a fake anymore, although I'm not entirely convinced it is her either.  However, I'm a big enough man to admit if I'm wrong and the evidence may be pointing that way.

 

Saying that, I think Genevieve is way off base here based on what she said on Facebook.  I definitely understand the frustrations artists have with their work being distributed on websites, which cuts into their compensation, but that's the double edged sword that exists because of the internet and fighting it isn't going to change reality.  Instead of being angry that she's not selling as many calendars as she expected, she should be looking at this as great marketing and exposure for her brand.  If she and her agent/manager use the trending metrics, that are publicly available, to paint the right picture it can help her get other modeling contracts that are guaranteed pay days.  All industries and businesses, and a model is a businesses unto herself, need to embrace the modern world we live in and accept the realities of doing business in this world.

Finally a serious answer about this thing.

i'm sorry for probably sounding dumb right now,but does this mean that we should stop posting pics of her in this thread?

i know that calendar is hers and i understand what happened,but posting pics from magazines or websites is basically the same..

That's a good question... basically all the instagram/twitter picture posted directly from her or other model are free, but when comes from magazines or photographer are protected by copyright or other, I repeat good question...

I have the deed for the Golden Gate Bridge too, would you like to buy it?  Seriously, I'm completely floored by the level of gullibility on here.

Funny. But seriously, @jj3 has been her biggest fan on BZ, not to mention has been in touch with her on other media. Like for years. Could it be a troll? Sure. But I think it's legit.

No do not take pictures with you our phone. I do not want the images online. If you want to see them you can buy one like everyone else. 

 

Gen,

 

I bought your calendar last year to support you, even knowing the pictures would show up online later.  You were brave to do the calendar and it was art.  I hope you understand many supported you because you did the calendar, not just to get the images.

You're denying reality here.  The pictures from both calendars are all over the Internet, it really has nothing to do with this site.  The music industry tried to fight digital distribution of its content and lost that battle badly.  The movie/tv industry has been more successful because they created streaming platforms, but still fight a large amount of piracy.  Anyone who thinks that content won't get online at some point, if not very quickly after it's being released, is just fooling themselves.

 

 

I'm not denying reality. The first four words I wrote are 'It is a reality'. Nor did I say it's all this site's fault.
