I've been thinking about Utica's comments about not wanting to appropiate black culture. At first I was like "WTF is she saying?" but then I remembered how fucking toxic the fanbase is and I kind of understood why it's probably for the best that she will absolutely not wear anything that is remotely characteristic of black culture.
Ru, Symone, Bob and Monet can all claim "girl, don't be stupid, just come from a good place blabla" but they arent the ones at risk. it takes just one small thing gone wrong, something said with the wrong words, misunderstood or misplaced and you have Utica and her family receiving death threats, literally. Utica can't control the narrative (in other words, what edit she'll get). Pretty smart of her, I think.
I remember Brooklyn on Season 11, on her "poncho trick" runway, she entered the runway with a huge afro. I remember some youtube reviewers and similars criticizing it "very bad taste", "the afro should have been of a different color", and so on.
Could this be the reason Denali appearead yesterday wearing a wig that was so not Olivia?
Olivis is known for using big curly hair, what the fuck was that wig?
It makes even more sense after last week when people started getting all up in arms and claiming that Raven was blackfishing given how taned she looked.
Do these people NOT know who Raven is?
