Yes, I think there’s an element of tokenism (perhaps less so in Pink but I don’t pay much attention to it) - they have a roster of 10/15 white girls they regularly shoot with, but Lais and Jas only for WOC, and no one of the skin tone of, say, Duckie, Grace Bol etc. And Asians, I guess they recently used Ming and they shot with Shanina but it seems that’s about it. I want a big group of everyone. Vs won’t change what they think is working they should of chosen women that look different but who knows ..

February 17, 20187 yr 30 minutes ago, Jaku84 said: What did he do? from her thread..this happened in the Starz documentary for his "Nude" calendar On 30/10/2017 at 4:07 AM, Manyfaces said: What is worth mentioning is David Bellemere is a perverted, manipulative prick. He was hurting her while shooting her, she hated the entire time he was shooting her. Basically called her ugly and made fun of her breasts. He grabs the girls and poses them like ragdolls. The guy that hired him was pissed at him the entire documentary. On 21/11/2017 at 8:31 PM, Manyfaces said: It's early on into the interview process at the start. When they bring up Rachel, he calls her breasts "balloons" and something to the effect of them being gross. It's been a few weeks..hard to remember exactly what was said. But he did say they were balloons.
February 17, 20187 yr I think he also had problems with Jean Jay, one of the models that appeared in the documentary and in fact, they were quite friends a while ago. I do not believe anything about this man either and now with what Taylor just said I feel a lot more disgusting

What I do find strange is that he tagged Ed as well, yet David still follows him.
February 17, 20187 yr If these allegations about David are true I wonder if he was indeed a factor of why Sara Sampaio was uncomfortable on her Lui shoot.

I'm sorry, I got confused, it was another model who spoke directly about him: https://www.bostonglobe.com/metro/2018/02/16/beauty-and-ugly-truth/c7r0WVsF5cib1pLWXJe9dP/story.html but it's clear that Taylor and other angels must have talked too recently. I guess Taylor asked not to be public for his safety.

I wonder if Sara will be supporting Taylor now and she will say something later
February 17, 20187 yr Of the NA, Lais, Sara and Taylor are the girls that stopped following Bellemere, so I imagine Lais and Taylor were the ones who raised objections against him. Sara probably after the Lui shoot. I’m glad VS has cut ties with him and Kadel. It will be interesting to see if they make another statement, or any of the more high profile models speak out. I’m curious who was the model who worked for VS that spoke about Kadel.

I think he was unaware of the direct abuse cases and now that he found out ...

February 17, 20187 yr David not smart... If you point fingers at someone(s) on social media without offering an ounce of proof in the process you can get nailed on slander, and if we're splitting hairs, defamation. Also I wonder if this is another reason why Taylor took a step back from VS last year (besides contract negotiations). If that's the case then I give her even more props because she didn't just sit around and allow herself to be a victim, she pumped the brakes and said VS get your photographer situation fixed or I'll peace out till I feel safer.
February 17, 20187 yr It seems VS should stick with the likes of Russell James. The girls are comfortable with him and he has made a conscious decision to never say “Oh, that’s hot/sexy” but instead uses words like gorgeous, beautiful, stunning etc. That way things don’t get weird.
February 17, 20187 yr It sickens me that he seems to be lashing out at someone who appears to be one of his victims. Worst yet, that he seems to think he did nothing wrong and his so called methods are somehow acceptable or right. Bravo to all the women who are speaking out, hopefully more will come forward and finally put an end to this horrible situation.
February 17, 20187 yr I remember seeing the documentary I felt a lot of disgust for this man. The moment he shows up with Jessica Clements he hints at her before firing. It is nauseating
