I'm going to throw something out here...


She's not that pretty. Wonder if that played a part in the firing.

You guys would have a point if it weren't for the fact that the alt-left isn't alt any more.

Take for example, the in-ability of the left to be honest about illegal aliens? They continually tell the same bold face LIE and call them "immigrants". You can't deny this, it's all over the media. And anyone who tells the truth is labeled a racist.

Loreal has been around for decades and has a lot of customers across a wide swath of races, economic groups, political dispositions etc.

It's hard to imagine that insulting 50% of their customer base would not result in repercussions any more than if some Old Navy or Hardees spokesmodel made a blanket statement broadly addressing "black people".

Basic advertising.

Even the model that did it tried to back track and when that wasn't going to work completely changed their argument to one of vicitimization.

It's like watching a 9 year old try to argue their way out of a punishment first starting with denial\forgiveness and then when it doesn't work...try to flip it onto the accuser.

Do you think they initially hired her sight unseen?

Of course not, therefore they didn't fire her because of her looks.

It's simple - a business cannot keep a spokesperson or the face of their brand if that person is saying things that may alienate a good portion of their customer base.

Tell ya what. When there's 10 million Nazi wannabes in the country illegally, stealing our jobs and tax dollars get back to me. Oh we'd also have to have major cities harboring them for you to have a point.

Is there a market for transgender make up?

I wonder how many women who wear make up will want to buy make up presented/advertised by a transgender.

But there seems to be a market for a lot of things but being profitable is another thing!

Makeup is makeup. *shrug*

It doesn't take brains or skills to wear make-up someone else put on you no matter what body parts you have.
