Miel 15,009 Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Although this doesn't invalidate specific statements he has made regarding under-representation of POC in the arts, it really is unfortunate to see all of this. I remember seeing and hearing a lot of these statements in the past, and had hoped he had learned from this. I still hope he has learned from this, content deleted or otherwise. Still cringy, though. 4 minutes ago, JustinTrudeau said: I want to eye roll at half of the items on Lady Gaga's list: http://yourfaveisproblematic.tumblr.com/post/45739943624/lady-gaga As beautiful as the metaphor is, I still feel my body drop whenever I think of Gaga in a niqab or in dreads (and in the same era, sadksjfhjsdhf). Granted, as a stan, at least I can say she has generally moved on and learned from a lot of fairly cringy statements and actions. I hope the same for Childish. [but, also from personal experience, all his stans are fake-woke sad boys; not that slightly-racist twink Gaga stans are any better, though, lmao] 3 points in and ready for more Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gypsy is a slur, but in this case, I don't think Gaga meant to be problematic lol Gypsy's travel all over the world, and they also created Gypsy together. That's probably where that stemmed from, but I can see how it's an issue Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The blackface situation was unfortunate as the shoot was Mario’s Idea for her to have an EXTREME spray tan (hence why she’s orange and not black) because of celeb culture and what not at the time. And yes, but for example in the UK & Ireland many of the travelling community self identify as Gypsy’s (I know several here in my region) and the most common derogatory term for them here is “gypo’s” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
