I would say it if it was a white man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because it’s her brand doesn’t mean it’s her company. At the end of the day its owned by a bigger corporation, is partnered with Amazon, and Sarah is doing half the talking... so that leaves very little place for Gaga to actually have the lead, and the creative direction is not convincing me at all that she had much say in this brand.

I would say it if it was a white man. Maybe you have to revisit your definition of angry. She’s a beauty reviewer doing a negative review and playing it up for the camera. No one wants to watch a stale ass emotionless person talk about how good/bad something is without conviction. And yes I do think it’s iffy to call a black woman angry when she’s passionate AT BEST. It’s not necessarily racist but to me there can be implicit bias. I doubt a white man would get the same comments with that tone. He’d probably be called funny, sassy or whatever.

It would be understandable if she actually bought it and felt ripped off but eh I guess she's passionate about makeup brands. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But implicit bias - not from me. I find YouTubers irritating in general, specifically because they play up to the camera. I would not call any of them funny or sassy. If you think it's iffy that's your problem but I know what I said and I know what my intentions were. Idgaf that she's a black female and it pisses me the **** off when people being race into things where it doesn't apply, my comment would be the same no matter who said it.

She said she invested in the brand so a percentage must be hers, but she isn't obligated to have a final say in the company decisions if she doesn't want to, she can just hire someone to do it for her. This was an official message from the Office of the First Lady. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact I think this is the first time I've ever said something like this and she happens to be a black woman and until you pointed it out wasn't even aware of the "angry" connotation. But are you saying it's ok to say it about anyone else but not black women? Because if it was James Charles or any other random white guy I'd equally have turned the video off and blocked his channel before finishing... It's more about the fact they are YouTubers for me rather than anything else... Can't speak for anyone else though... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
