Even as a teen I knew this was messed up. She explained herself so clearly and he freaked out as though she was being disrespectful.
Then they painted her as a crazy person until she ended up quitting for how she was being treated
As they typically do, because they think they can discredit us because they think we’re nothing.
When i watched this season , When Winnie came back into the competition it felt like she didn't want to be there ...but i now looking back it kind of explains it , with the treatment she got . Even the other models were calling her 'stuck up' & 'ungrateful' .
It’s funny how he said she would be difficult to work with. But now she’s a Successful SUPERMODEL! Proud of you WINNIE!
I was just going to say the same thing and saw your comment. Winnie is absolutely amazing and has come a long way despite nasty people like Yu Tsai in this industry. So proud of her for standing up to an ignorant, Yu Tsai.
EXACTLY! If anything, he’s the one who’s difficult to work with!
Isn't she a very disrespectful person? Like no hate to her because of her skin condition but... her personality is not the best
Btw what I'm saying is based on video I saw a while back, a compilation of her being not so great, I'll see if I can find it. But yeah, her being disrespected due to her condition is sickening, she puts BOUNDARIES and LIMITS and that shouldn't be difficult to considerate
I think she was very immature at the time. But then again SHE WAS 19!! Like she had the right to be immature. Love Winnie now. She deserves her success.
She's not difficult for defending herself and other people with that skin condition. This guy is WAY out of line.
The whole show is out of line tbh… they’re so crazy and disrespectful
He's being difficult. It's very simple: "I apologise. I meant no harm." And then you don't call her that anymore. Super easy.
Unfortunately, "difficult," is a label many women earn by standing up for themselves and refusing to allow others to disrespect them.
Don't forget this the same guy who argued with Johnny Wujek the creative director on Cycle 19 and 20, who is actually a decent guy compared to Jay and him and argued in Jordan's photoshoot and made Jordan uncomfortable. And the next cycle, they replaced Johnny with him! What the hell?
Black women has to be difficult n rude 🙄 , dont call her a panda ,
As someone who also has vitiligo, nicknames like that are almost never received positively. It takes an enormous amount of confidence, and a very high self esteem to be able to just be okay with it. This show had mostly teenagers as target audience, and as Chantelle said, there would absolutely be people who watch it on TV, and just think its okay for them to start calling others names like that. Getting called panda, cow, zebra, is not a compliment when you have vitiligo. It makes you hyperconscious about the way you look, and can ruin your entire day. All the stares, whispers and sidestepping is enough. We don't need your "cute" nickname.
Also, it doesn't help that Yu Tsai is a massive c u next tuesday.
People with vitiligo are beautiful humans. They don't deserve to be called names. You are beautiful and I hope you know that! ❤️
I don't have vitiligo and I find that extremely disrespectful. She didn't consent to being called that. He's an acquaintance to her, they aren't friends. He needs to learn his place and what's socially acceptable.
Yea i dont see the point in calling her that in the first place
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Agreed. You deserve respect like everyone else. What a complete fool that man was being.
The irony. "She won't listen" while not listening to a word she says.
"Chantelle wont make a great model"
When she's one of THE most famous models to ever come off this terrible show 😂😂😂
In spite of it. Not because of those meanies.
@@eleanoraquitaine2966 exactly!
which proves that the show is such a joke that can't recognize models with real talent, and on top of that, Tyra wants to take credit for her success. 😂
@@marcusv6134 I was going to say exactly this! Tyra was trying to take credit for Winnie's success, but she sure as hll isn't taking responsibility for any of the contestants who failed to make it too.
Correction: THE most famous model from the show, and way more relevant than Tyra herself at this point
She's not just any model she's WINNIE HARLOW. I had no idea she even came from this show!! This is how a super model acts. Stood up for herself and stayed professional the whole time.
So she changed her name?? I didn’t know she came from here either 🤯
She said in an interview once that ANTM did NOT provide any real modeling opportunities, she said it was just one big reality show and not an actual competition. She got her modeling opportunities on her own and no agency even knew she was featured on antm
Yeah, I think she's said that Tyra recruited her from Instagram and that she had some other contacts from IG before the show. But I know she's definitely said that her modeling work after the show had nothing to do with her being on it.
@@Lynsey17 ppl got so mad at her for saying that tho and said she was ungrateful. Tyra even addressed it (passive aggressively ofc) trying to take credit for Winnie’s success
She didn’t come from this show. Same thing with Nyles.
They were both from the “transitional” time where social media was really at the peak and models. Singers, actors were all coming from Instagram and Twitter.
ANTM recruited them to try to save themselves because the traditional “agency scouting” style of finding models that ANTM was built on just doesn’t work in the modern world.
She was being very patient with him, she didn't call him offensive, or a racist or rude or anything, she just calmly explained how it was an issue that she'd want him to stop doing. She even said she understood his intention with the comment, and yet SHE is meant to be the problem. I feel bad that she had to finally just accept that he was gonna keep calling her that regardless, when she really gave him an opportunity to gain perspective and learn. But then again this is ANTM and he is the creative director so that would have been too much to ask I guess.
She was kinder that she should have
The amount of GASLIGHTING this photographer did to Chantelle. And to think, she was also trying to help HIS image by telling him she doesn’t want others to think of him negativity
this is clearly why she has become so successful for being such an admirable person and model
They should just put this video next to the dictionary definition of gaslighting
Yes! And also textbook definition of Projection as well at 3:36
@@koalapillars no, gaslighting would be to say she only thought he called her panda.
This reminded me of an episode of Hell’s Kitchen where there was a contestant named Robert, and Gordon Ramsey often called him Bobby. The contestant asked to speak with Gordon and told him that his dad was named Bobby and he had a rough childhood and being called that impacted him poorly. Gordon genuinely apologized, told him he wished he had told him sooner so he could have avoided putting him in that position but that he was glad he spoke up, and assured him that he would call him by his full name moving forward. Definitely the opposite of this horrible interaction. Even though he didn’t have ill intent, he recognized that it was impacting someone negatively and apologized and changed his behavior. Kudos to him.
Good point! And that's supposed to be Hell's Kitchen!
Exactly!
Thank you for sharing this !!
When I started reading this comment I got a little nervous, expecting that Gordon Ramsey reacted the same way as this guy. But of course, Gordon continues to be one of the most considerate people in the business. You have folks like Gordon whose “persona” is to be rough and difficult, but in reality they are so kind and cool. Then you’ve got folks like this guy who pretend to be cool but are in reality just arrogant jerks
Ive seen that clip and it always stuck with me how well gordon handled that!
She grows up her entire life thus far being called nicknames such as this and I'm sure there's a lot of trauma attached to being bullied for her skin. I'm really proud of her for standing up for herself graciously. Him telling her how to feel was disgraceful. He has no idea what she's been through and he has no right to tell her how to feel. Not even "tell" her how to feel; more like demand her to feel a certain way because he won't back down despite being completely wrong and tone-deaf. This show is so disappointing in their treatment of human beings. She's not there for your amusement.
Funny she got made fun of...yet she made fun of a variety of people herself. Look it up
@@liljay216 therapy needed on both sides
She is not gracious at all . She made fun of Duckie's natural hair
@@dakotawinchester So ? The photographer was more known than Chantelle at that time . Does it make it right? And not Winnie is not way more known than Duffy
@@dakotawinchester auto correction but anyways you know who I was referring to
Winnie Harlow’s success in the industry isn’t because of the show, it’s in spite of it
Not only did she received the Angry Black Woman edit, she had SO many micro aggressions from Tyra and production. As well as the panda incident, Chantelle/Winnie was given a (bad) ombré to “match her skin” and got told off because she was expected to choose a zebra print suitcase in a photoshoot and she said that it was offensive. I’m sure there were many more but that’s just what comes to mind straight away
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾!
Ikr. Especially, she got a horrendous edit that doesn't do her any favor.
Tyra didn't condemn Yu Tsai's behavor nor did she support Winnie after this argument. Honestly, I think Tyra even hated her for sticking up for herself becoz the girls ain't allowed to voice their opinions.
i remember her saying she had a negative experience on this show and everyone said she should have been grateful, completed siding w Tyra.
I watched a vid of Winnie saying that the modelling success she has now came from work she did after the show, not even remotely related to the show, because the show does nothing for any models career. Needless to say, Tyra is kind of salty about that. LOL
Hi guys! I had to cut out 90% of this video due to copyright claims, so I'm sorry that it's so short. This is all that could go through. I had MUCH more to say, and also reacted to the entire photoshoot + judging but unfortunately had to take it all out for this to go through. I tried my best, just wanted to know you guys know!! Take care x
p.s. for those waiting for photography content, I have a LOT of BTS, photoshoots and retouching coming up for the next videos. ^_^
What?! That’s super messed up. I bet it’s Tyra tryna sabotage you
Hi jessica, looking forward for the photography contents! Also i enjoy your antm content too.
But yeah, the more recent antm (cycle 20 and upward) are very Copyright strict. Thats probably due to the fact that they switched distributor. Thats why the older ones are more lenient on dmca.
I thought I'd seen this video before, but longer. Your videos should definitely fall under fair use.
If you put a logo of some kind on the footage box you might be able to get through the copyright claims. That's what MasterofBlackjack does for 90 Day Fiance content and somehow he gets away with it.
Tyra is after you it seems 😉 continue the good work. We really enjoy your videos.
Yep this is the one that really pissed me off.
I hate yu tsai.
He once told a model on Asia's next top model who was crying/upset on set to : "get the hell out of the set" and made her breakdown even worse.
He actually made Mr. J looks like an angel.
When someone doesnt like your "nickname" and you keep insisting on using it....its called Bullying.
I don’t understand how people can be so audacious in this way.
“My intention was not to offend.”
“Well, you offended me/someone else, so please stop.”
“…no, I didn’t mean to.”
“CHANTELLE IS NOT GONNA MAKE A GOOD MODEL” yet she’s arguably the most successful model that was on this show 🤨🧐🧐🧐 the way she went about it was very respectful, too. Lol
Leila Goldkuhl >>>>>>
@@cmartinez6024 yes Leila is in High Fashion while Winnie is more on commercial both are successful
Nyle but yes
She literally handled it perfect, and he still tried to turn the narrative to make her look like she gave an attitude, she was literally the sweetest and held herself much more than most of us would have. I already liked Winni but now I have a lot more respect for her
my dad has vitiligo and those ''nicknames'' are never endearing and i'm pretty sure that most people with vitiligo hate being called that sort of name, even my mom who has been married to my dad for 30+ years would never call my dad a "panda", that man was so disrespectful
being called an animal because of your skin looking different is sooooo dehumanizing
then he tried to act like it was about her personality??? 🙄
Why don't people understand that it's NOT okay to call someone things that might hurt them?? It doesn't even matter if you meant well or not, if its hurting them then just stop it. Stop justifying your actions - It's literally that simple
💀
Its because people rather justify themselves and behave as though they are right (even if it is clearly inappropriate or offensive) than to be accountable for hurting someone else. People are selfish and lack basic sense. that simple, its sad.
Story time: I went to a school where all ages mingled, and the oldest would play with the youngest during recess. Me and a friend had nicknamed one of the small kids smiley. She was always one big smile and it was meant positive. Her mom calls- turns out the girl hated it. I explained we didnt mean it bad but id never use it again ofcourse, and i was sorry about her feeling bad.
Never called her smiley again. Its THAT SIMPLE. I was 12. ffs he should be more mature than i was then
So you didn't respond, "FINE! I'll CaLl yOu POrcUpInE!!!!!"
My nickname was smiley ☺️
I once had a high school teacher who asked me, in earnest, when joking/playing around becomes bullying. I told him “When the other person asks you to stop and you don’t”. It’s really that simple.
@@joiewaggoner793 it really is
People do not like being called with nicknames that they find offensive?
No way.
Shocking.
I'm so glad Jessica is making these videos. She is honestly saying everything what people are thinking. A spade a spade... he's a jerk who can't take criticism and misogynistic. He is, in a way, threatening or addressing her future as a model because he felt bothered, that she was bothered by his comments 😵😬🙄😒
Bullies who never get called out on their bullying keep doing it. These posts are a public service.
and man he must kick himself now, cause shes one of the few from ANTM that actually broke out as a big model and is NOT quiet about the show or this incident
@@crazymissdaisy Awesome.
He's a total A-hole. She is beautiful. Glad to see her on top magazines and runways.
@@magdalenac4014 He never said she wasn’t beautiful though.
What he's doing is the textbook definition of gaslighting.
i have vitiligo and i do not like being called a panda or a cow or anything like that. i don't get how he could just brush it off saying that it was never insulting and demeaning when it clearly seemed to be. alright, he did that as a fun, loving gesture but when she said that she didn't want to be called that, why did he go out of his way to reason himself instead of accepting the fact that it is indeed a demeaning hurtful thing?
what if people think that it's ok to call someone with this skin disease like that when it's already too much to live with vitiligo because of society's view on it?
Skin conditions are so terrible to have to deal with. I "only" have psoriasis but if it's really bad, people look at me strange as well. It's not contagious, folks.
I can't even begin to imagine what it must be like to live with vitiligo and to have to deal with people like him. Just terrible, self centered, and rude.
He is ableist probably. He thinks that abled people, without facial differences, are inherently superior to people with vitiligo and that he can belittle her and tell her what to do.
The thing is she even said herself that she knew it came from a loving, caring place. Yet, she continued to get riled up and take offense. It is clear that he has called her this before and she was okay with it before. Now she wants to say it isn't okay. In an industry like this, that is deemed as being difficult to work with. If she had a problem with him calling her that, she should have said that to begin with. But, she didn't and instead made it an issue during a professional setting. It is frustrating when someone is taking offense to something that wouldn't offend them before. If you're going to switch up on people like that at least understand why you're going to have some resistance.
Also, it has been proven that she is difficult to work with. Not in this case particularly. But it is easy to find compilations and personal experiences from people that view her as difficult and arrogant.
@@janeeyre1990 I just wanna say that vitligo is NOT a disability
@@vz8432 it takes time to confront someone, you know? i don't usually watch this show so i don't know much about it- whether she had the chance to tell abt this to him some other time or not. neither do i know if he gives nicknames to other models. maybe she said that she personally was fine with it but later thought that the audience might think it's ok to call someone with vitiligo a cow/panda or a giraffe when it's not. why is he not moving on from it? he could just call her by her name and not give her a nickname. he wasn't able to understand her point and instead called her a porcupine.
i'm only defending her on this part, i don't know much about her so i can't really say anything about her as a whole. but as a person with vitiligo, i did take full offense when he continued to call her a panda when she was being very reasonable as to why he shouldn't. i don't want some fully grown adult calling me anything like that because they thought that it was fine
When I was a child I literally played barbie dolls as if they were on ANTM... I loved Tyra so much and loved the show, this is how influential a show can be on a literal child, maybe back then I thought the models were treated right. Now that I re watch with you, this show is Tyra being an evil, calling models names and making them feel bad, now I have 0 appreciation for Tyra.
I felt the same way I used to LOVE Tyra now I look back and realize I was seeing things through the rose colored glasses of a child and it sucks. ANTM was my show but I still noticed when her mask would slip and the bully in her would come out.
Yea, I’m shocked how unaware I was, this show is pure toxicity every episode omg.
Growing up, you finally realize Tyra Banks has the same evilness as Ellen Degeneres. Always looking good on camera while in fact, they're faking it for views!
Same!!!!
It’s beyond disrespectful that even after she made it clear in a very easy to understand way I.e kids seeing him call her panda and then using it to other people with Vitiligo, that he doubled down on his point and gaslight her and the situation. For him to THEN come for her career and label her as “difficult to work with” is insane and typical narcissist behaviour.
And now she’s the famous Winnie Harlow we all know and love. Winnie Harlow, not panda or porcupine.
This is why Winnie hates Tyra lol
He attempted to gaslighting her as if she doesn’t have any right to not accepting to be called a panda. Pandas are cute, but calling someone with vitiligo a Panda can veer into calling this person any other animal with patterns and it could be spiteful so NO.
It's silly to turn it into a discussion about the likeability of the animal. Even if 100% of people the world loved pandas and every other spotted animal, if she asks you to stop calling her panda, you should stop. Toucans are beautiful birds. That doesn't mean someone with a big nose needs to be grateful when you call them toucan "with love". Anyone can see how it hits different to be called a "panda" because of your skin condition or "toucan" because of your big nose.
And threatening to call her "porcupine" when she rejected "panda"... That was SO childish!
these judges are giving me whiplash. good for her for standing up and not giving into his excuses.
If this was in a professional work place, Human Resources would be called in. If you can get in trouble calling someone love or sweetie, calling someone with a skin condition Panda is definitely unprofessional language and you would be out the door. Especially since we have proof that she told him very reasonably why she did not want to be called it. They tell these girls so often that they are unprofessional when most of what they themselves do would not be tolerated in an actual workplace. No wonder the modelling and fashion industry has a bad name if this is what these young girls are told is reasonable.
And sadly… this is how plenty of black women get labeled anytime we respectfully stand up for ourselves. We are automatically “difficult”. I’m proud of her
This one right here, the most disrespected yet society says we can’t defend ourselves.
I love that the algo pushes your comment so far down and it still has a lot of likes
That was so disturbing that he just turned it on her and took no responsibility for his actions.
The way he continued to call her animal names after she addressed the problem was him indeed proving her point by calling her a porcupine in a way that was mean , malicious and bullying. And when he further goes the length to mention he can change and addressing if she could? No Yu Tsai she doesn't need to change. She was fine. Only you need to change Yu Tsai, just you.
Imagine there being an argument around what you dont want to be called. We all have the right to refuse nick names. It shouldnt have been justified or explained.
what’s worse about this is to this day rumors are still circulating about Winnie being “mean” and “hard to work with” :/
They hate seeing a black woman setting her boundaries they’ll label her as mean I met Winnie once in Amsterdam and she was so nice.
I am so proud of her for standing up to him and saying something. You go girl.
As someone with VERY visible psoriasis and having had a visible skin condition since I was 10... This entire conversation made me quit watching this show when it aired. Just such disgusting behaviour from Yu Tsai
I would’ve started calling him a nickname too. Wait for him to say something about it. “Oh you don’t like being given a nickname you don’t want either? Oh gosh I can’t imagine how that must feel.” He could’ve just said he was sorry and both of them could have moved forward.
literally imagine if she started calling him panda too bc hes asian literally would be the same thing
She approached that confrontation with such maturity and he was acting like she was being a diva. Also, "When I gave you the nickname, it was to help you." How? How is panda ever a helpful nickname?
This moment was iconic for me only for the fact that Winnie was in the right and articulated herself correctly. So that they couldn't turn it her later at panel. Yu Tsai was such a nasty bully that production made him aplogise so that the public wouldn't turn on him and finally I realised that this show had 0% to do with modeling
I think to call someone an animals name is in most cases NOT positive!
And I also think … why panda of all names? There’s other animals with the same characteristics.
ANTM was seriously so awful and so toxic. How did this show even make it over 20 seasons 😳
Yu Tsai apparently missed the memo: When someone tells you the nickname you're calling them is offensive, it is NOT up to you to answer, "No it isn't." Your one and only job is to stop calling them that.
I feel like ANTM edited this confrontation out of order so they could end it on a "positive" note. Him walking off while calling her a porcupine and her crying was most likely the end of that discussion. The whole scene is just off the wall.
That’s a veryyy interesting theory! I actually felt like it didn’t flow right either…
@@JessicaKobeissi the editing and production is super manipulative so anything's possible... (also, sidenote but hello, I'm a big fan of your content and skillshare class!)
It's perfect irony that she's probably the most successful model to come out of ANTM. I'm happy for her obviously but the petty part of me is also happy to have it stuck to Yu Tsai
Leila Goldkuhl is the most successful supermodel to come out of ANTM but she is definitely one of the most successful supermodels from the show.
"You don't like what i say and that means you're being difficult" does not stand up in claims of bullying, he called her this in a recorded show, with an audience. And that is still his attitude?! It's discrimination.
So glad she's made herself successful. This show is the worst!
She’s didn’t win the show, yet became America’s next top model. She’s “hard to work with” but became what the show is titled
Funny thing is that I know who Winnie Harlow is without having watched the show since s.12… I don’t know who Yu is🤷🏽♂️
I'm bald due to alopecia, and if someone with whom I was working called me baldy, even if it came from a "loving place" I'd still be embarrassed and offended. I don't want the fact that I'm different to be called out. It was completely inappropriate for him to call her what he did.
Wow how disgusting, can't believe they got away with that.
And he is still a judge on Asias Next top model and Supermodelme. Jessica should react to those shows.
This among other problematic scenes happened before the cancel culture.
India winner from cycle 23 told that she was body-shamed by one of the judges (the least judge that everyone could think would’ve bodyshamed someone) but editors chop that scene off because now they’re aware that it is not normalized those behaviors anymore
@@cmartinez6024 I'm not normally for cancel culture, but what he said to her was utterly disgusting, and the way he tried to make her out to be in the wrong was nasty.
Right! Wtf, I got so angry watching this! Like living in the Middle Ages, dehumanizing people. 🤬
How about we don't give people nicknames unless we're close to them? And still, make sure they're okay with it..
Her "attitude" is her willingingness and readiness to stick up for her and others bcos of self respect.
He knows EXACTLY what he meant, esp in an industry like modelling the model is expected to endure sooooo much more than just " cute nicknames" that's why it's such a toxic industry.
I'm happy Winnie is thriving and HAS been thriving for YEARS.
People like him only fuel the toxicity in that industry bcos they expect ppl to be doormats, smh.
I don't think you can tell someone what they can and cannot be offended by. It's one of those things that's all about perception.
So she's difficult because she's standing up for herself and others?
Wow ok.
She is definitely making it.
Omggg I will never forget watching this as a teenager and thinking “wow, that’s so fucked up.” Like just because you may not mean something to be offensive doesn’t mean it isn’t. When someone tells you something bothers them just stop. Idk how they found a photo shoot creative director more horrible than Mr. Jay but they done did it.
It’s also funny how he said she could “never be a good model” because she confronted him about the comment, and she’s one of like the most successful models to ever come from the show lmao
"It is hard to get Chantelle to really listen."
Pretty sure this dude's the one not listening.
I don’t think she had “an attitude” because she didn’t want to be referred to as an animal. That’s literally dehumanizing her, how would that not be harmful. Good for her for defending herself though. She looked absolutely stunning too ♥️
I’m happy that I came across this channel: I’m always happy to see ANTM Content. Thank you for this retrospective! (I lapped up this content as a child and it’s disturbing how the show happened)
He literally is a bully like idek how he thinks he can gaslight her into letting him make fun of her condition. It’s unprofessional to give nicknames like panda! What if someone called him chopsticks or general tsao because he looks Asian!? And then they told him it was to help him :/
Not just a bully. An ableist bigot.
I remember watching this episode when it aired and I absolutely could not BELIEVE she was being portrayed as unreasonable. But I guess that's just par for the course on this show.
The models are ALWAYS "unreasonable" on this show
Ugh! Calling her a panda is so dehumanizing and demeaning. This show was constantly making women feel less than and without agency. This is just another day for them!
I will never understand why Yu Tsai still hasn't been canceled. I remember watching this on TV and being really uncomfortable at his blatant ignorance, and the fact that he would exercise his authority to demean someone for calling him out is absolutely disgusting. I wish more people saw this and STOPPED giving him work.
This clip reminds me of why I never confronted my white friends in high school who would say racist stuff to me or about how I looked. I'll tell you it damn well isn't like that today but....I hope people see this is why "Well, they didn't say anything about it bothering them" is not an excuse.
I have white skin, I can’t tan. My whole life random or not so random people of all sorts of skin colors have told me “you’re soooo white…that’s not healthy/doesn’t look healthy/not normal…spend 30 minutes in the sun everyday”. Or they’ve even asked if I’m unwell because I look to white. Like wtf.
I eventually started to tell people to shut up because it’s not ok to comment on peoples skin colour, black, white, pink, brown…it’s all offensive.
I correct them...every damn time. Idk, no explanation needed. If you're my friend, don't do it.🤷🏾♀️
Damn. That breaks my heart. I agree with you, it’s not an excuse!!!
But she DID say it bothered her. I can't comment on your friends, because I don't know what they said or how you reacted. Some mixed race friends enjoy race jokes and are not bothered by race-based nicknames or whatever, so I do think it's important to let people know where you draw YOUR line. But here there was no question. Yu Tsai cannot say he didn't know or that he thought she liked it. She told him and his responses were so ridiculous, "I call you panda to help you", "If you don't like panda then I'll call you porcupine!"
@@vlo4829 You realise how I got to that point was because I had before and then was immediately shot down and had my feelings invalidated, right? There’s culture jokes and then there’s making comments on someone skin tone or race. I’m literally pointing out why those comments, whether that one specific person happens to be okay with it or if you “had good intentions” doesn’t mean you weren’t in the wrong. You pushing back like this is EXACTLY my point.
*edits: initially posted this while on a treadmill
And he said SHE wasn't listening. Talk about projection. Geez.
Jokes on him, she's super successful now!
Ooof I hate this because, especially as a WOC I've the escalated/stopped an argument because I didn't want to be labeled as difficult. I feel for her 💔
I forgot about this one.... I remember being upset by this and I still cant believe rewatching this today, he is actually arguing to justify that its ok to call someone something especially when they say they dont like it, so disrespectful, that took guts for her to call them out and say she doesnt like it, that should be respected, not many feel they have that power to say no (myself included) she is just stunning inside and out, mad respect for her.
She articulated that so well and he still didn’t get it. Really acted like a child, no maturity whatsoever!
They really framed Winnie/Chantelle as the villain that season and had people falling for that edit, when really the ANTM crew/judges were so archaic and tone-deaf. It's embarrassing.
It's VERY obvious that she's lying about being ok with it and shifting the focus to others to impress upon him that he needs to NOT do that to anybody else. She doesn't see it as "loving". Who is he to her? Nobody. They're not even friends. He shouldn't feel like he can call her that whether he means well or not and he sure as hell shouldn't feel like it's ok to totally ignore everything she says!
Exactly she should just be honest and say she doesn’t like it and has a problem with it
I am glad I found another TH-cam creator that has seen the problems in ANTM. This part here reminds me back in Cycle 1, Ebony where the white women in the salon were making rude remarks about shaving their names in her head and a lot of racial undertones in this cycle. I wholeheartedly felt terrible for Ebony and now Winnie. This is so unacceptable and I am glad that this is being called out as it should. The fact that Tyra allowed this to happened in sickening. As others have said, Tyra is indeeded a bully and a mean girl.
I watched this years ago, and even at that time, I really disliked how defensive he got. They tried to make it look like she was nagging and complaining about nothing.
She had every right to speak out when someone said something relating to HER body/looks.
As someone with vitiligo this cycle made me upset. The way they try to portray her it was awful she's actually really great. 🥰. Love your videos keep it up 😉☺️
I LOOOOOOVE watching people self-implode when another person sets boundaries for themselves. It’s watching the trash take itself out. 🥳😎
"You crashed my car.
You didn't pay me back.
You stole my cat.
You ate my pizza"
"Oh, but you didn't flush the toilet that one time."
🤯😂😂😂😂😂😂
“Chantelle is not going to make a good model”- Well she turned out to be right up there among the most successful contestants to have come out of the show (in terms of a modelling career). She is pretty much a supermodel now!
She was such a diva the whole season but I loved it I’m so proud of how successful she has become ever since the show I feel like she’s more famous than most of the other contestants
Before she has even said her first full sentence he's smiling and shaking his head, like she's being ridiculous. No regard for her feelings and totally disrespectful
I remember watching this episode when it was first released and being completely on her side! I've always thought she was beautiful and now she is a super successful model!
The fact that she went on to become a SUPERMODEL is the biggest eff you to this show. Go Winnie!
I officially cannot stand this guy! Props to "Chantelle" because we all know she is the most famous model to come out of ANTM.
I was just thinking that he was like "you'll never make it in the modeling industry" her- becomes a supermodel
She should give him a loving nickname like Shithead.
That’s literally how narcissistic people have a conversation they cannot admit their wrongs that guy is so crazy..
Narcissism is a mental illness, don't bring it into this
@@Hannahsx don’t like what I have to say just ignore I said what I said.
As someone with visible vitiligo like winnie it can be very dehumanizing. People are so obsessed with the skin condition that they forget that we are people. I've had strangers just come up and touch me or grab me to satisfy your curiosity. Like I just wish people would just leave me alone and if you see someone with vitiligo just leave them alone unless you are wanting to have a conversation outside of there skin condition
You KNOW that he didn't give her the nickname 'panda' because it was soft and positive. It was a nickname based on her looks, her physical appearance, and she had the right to defend herself and others with vitiligo. ANTM is so full of it.
Nicknames DON'T help in anything
Ffs! Why is he choosing this hill to die on? Just say "I'm really sorry, I didn't mean any offence, but obviously you don't want to be called that so I won't do it again." then move on and forget it. Silly little man.
And as always - Winnie will be the angry black woman just like Yaya was...
Yep, I caught that “soften my energy” microaggresive bullshit comment. She didn’t even read him properly 💅🏾 and she still got the “difficult” angry black woman label slapped on her.
Winnie Harlow is an amazing woman and I love how she stood up for herself and other people that are affected by his comments towards her.
" she wont be a good model becuz she wont gracefully allow me to call her a nick name around her skin condition. " like on what planet would that fly. this show gave so much self-importance and brain rot to the ppl who worked on it.
I remember watching this as a CHILD and feeling so angry that he didn’t listen to her when she told him to not call her any nickname like that. 🤦🏼♀️ like bro… come one now.
people need to understand
whether or not its coming from a good place or what not
the reciever is hurt and you have to respect them and not justify yourself
because sometimes the reciever knows you are coming from a good place but that doesnt mean its okay if someone gets hurt in the process
its like saying sorry, and people accepting it but not forgiving them. It doesnt justify things
Oh dude he has the emotional and social skill of a toddler this is so twisted it is not all about HIM would be funny if this wasent so concerning....
SO glad you called this out. When I first saw this episode as a teenager I was bothered then - and it's even more disgusting watching it back all these years later. I can't believe the ANTM cast got to treat these models like trash for so long... thanks for this series, Jessica. Really eye-opening to just how terrible the show was. I remember being a teen and looking up to Tyra and wanting to be a model - and then as I got older, I felt more and more concerned that the models were truly being mistreated. Such a shame!
This would be like calling a skinny girl "Skelly" then saying it's because skeletons are cute. Wtf man. They put the model with vitiligo on to make fun of her vitiligo. That's just so wrong, & I'm thankful it worked out for her!!
Gaslighting. That’s what that was. I’ve had that happen so many times. I confront someone about treating me a while I don’t like, they blow up and get mad about how I feel, then come back later and blame me because I overreacted then want me to accept their willingness to “talk it out” I’ve been set up to feel like I was I was in the wrong for years in situations like this and it’s so awkward cus you think “well if the person that was just yelling at me can calm down and talk it out, maybe I should just let it go and accept it” I don’t like her but honestly, the rumors of her being mean….this explains that so much. Being treated like this your whole life (her reaction clearly shows that that’s not the first time she had to accept that kind of behavior) will make you have a wall up and you want to establish to everyone that they can’t walk all over you
I also have vitiligo and empathize, but honestly this mostly took me back to HS and having my last name butchered over and over again and being told to stop being argumentative when I tried to correct them. It's not "being difficult" or "being disrespectful" to advocate for respect.
But does he not see that Pandas are black and white??? It's not just some cute nickname, it's directly tied to her race and skin condition.
I can't even believe this grown man reacted like a toddler when the model was explaining the real consequences that his behavior can have. HE doesn't have the condition, SHE does. So from my perspective SHE is an expert on it not him. That man is gross.
There’s a HUGE difference between setting boundaries and “having an attitude”. People just use that term when their shitty behavior gets called out. Manipulative and gross.
