Balenciaga Drama
Added 2022-11-28 19:43:40 +0000 UTCDropping one of the topics for this week early - a ton of people commented about the balenciaga scandal so let's do a mini deep dive into what happened - let me know your thoughts! (Some of the photos of the shoot are attached)
Comments
I’ll find it interesting how they handle it. They could spin it similar to the GP Goop Dipaire and say they’re calling out the abuse of kids/child labor. Like “kids are not for sale,” “the outrage was intentional”. It’s fucking nuts, though and they should never be purchased again.

2022-12-07 23:30:22 +0000 UTCHi Shannon! I saw a rumor on tiktok that Nicole kiddman's father was involved in a sex trafficking ring in Australia, could you do a mini episode on her involvement in the photoshoot and her history? I feel like it's something a lot of people are ignoring

2022-11-30 23:27:16 +0000 UTCI hear you - but what about the child fornography paper under the bag? It’s hard to see what it is so it couldn’t be a PR stunt, it isn’t flashy and obvious. But it’s bizarre to put that under the bag, and even if it is a PR stunt - that’s sick and wrong of people to think that child cornography is stunt worthy!

2022-11-30 09:06:22 +0000 UTCI used to work for Balenciaga’s corporate office in the US. This was a few years ago during Demna’s start. Stark white room, shockingly quiet office of maybe 7-8 people trying to do the least amount of work possible. The Paris office was similar, except a few upper creatives bending over backwards for press of any kind. To me, this seems like a PR stunt gone wrong that went over the head of anyone who could have cared enough about their job to call it out. I wasn’t surprised tbh, but the odds of anything purposefully sinister are pretty low.

2022-11-29 20:41:06 +0000 UTCSomething interesting to note is the most recent episode of the Kardashians almost appeared to be a proactive press cleanup, like they knew this might be coming, so they had to clear Kim's name beforehand, as it related to Balenciaga. There was a scene where Kris and Kim are trying to pronounce different fashion designer names. When they got to Balenciaga, Kris wasnt saying it quite right, so Kim kept saying "ball-enciaga" very dramatized, emphasis on the Ball.... which sounds a lot like the name of the demon you mentioned. My mind immediately flashed to this scene of them repeating "ball" for 20 seconds straight.... spooky 😳

2022-11-29 14:07:15 +0000 UTCThe short episodes throughout the week is great!!
Katie Murphy
2022-11-29 09:09:24 +0000 UTCThank you for covering this Shannon. This whole thing is truly sickening, and I just despair with it. It feels like this is all hiding in plain sight and I hate feeling like I'm propelling moral panic or siding with the right for being outraged about the sexualization of children. People need to wake up... the mommy bloggers and their TikTok saved videos, p**o sympathizers involved in children's charities, now these fucking fashion brands - and that's just been in the past few months alone. And yes, fuck Kim K. I really appreciate hearing your thoughts on it all.
Jen
2022-11-29 06:38:51 +0000 UTCYes need you to keep doing this

Sabrina Jones

2022-11-28 21:17:46 +0000 UTCYESSS SHANNON!! Everything you said, I wish I could say lol. I can tell you about how insulting Balenciagas excuse is bc I know the high fashion retail merchandising world! They ABSOLUTELY hired him to take those pictures JUST AS THEY ARE. Imagine an international Fashion House from 1919 letting a photographer who as they are alluding just do what he wants, without them seeing it. OH and give him sole access to all media outlets. It’s insulting they assume people are THAT dumb. We’re not. The amount of time, money and people that have to approve of decisions like this are months, millions and hundreds of employees. YOU ARE RIGHT! Kim couldn’t do anything to come back from this in my mind!! Isn’t she wanting to be an attorney who OWNED a fashion line??! If saying pedophilia is real means Qanon then maybe we need to wonder why people are more upset about the people who want to help kids. Maybe it’s time to start judging those people because it always has been look at the Romans and the Greeks! The Olympics were started by men who would get boys to wrestle and do competitions against each other! It was entertainment. We’ve turned entertainers into mentors and that is coming to an end. You cannot claim to be the smartest person in the room and the dumbest. Good job Shannon!
idk
2022-11-28 21:11:21 +0000 UTCLove the small episodes! As for balenciaga, TBH I’m leaning toward this being an edgy campaign. It’s like all they do pretty much.
Gustavo
2022-11-28 21:06:44 +0000 UTCHowever you want to split the episodes up I will listen either way!
