>>17293292I'm old enough to remember both men and women bitching about fashion mags and TV shows only casting the skinniest models since "nobody's that skinny in real life".
I even remember people redpilling each other about that: "it's because the producers are into children and flat skinny models most closely resemble them legally".
Shame to see people have forgotten that.
Baby Got Back was a massive hit in the 90s and it was all about how the media completely failed to represent the reality of the booty.
Look at the black girl in the video. Observe the size of her ass.
Now consider the fact that when they were producing the video, Mixalot was told by the producers at MTV that they wouldn't air the music video if they used her because her butt was too big.
That ass is fucking tiny by today's standards. People would call her skin over bone today, and Mixalot selected her because she wasn't big. She was still too big for the pedos at MTV.
He is fully self-published so they couldn't push him around and he said he wouldn't do the video at all if they kept fucking with him, which meant MTV would miss out a tonne of revenue. They acquiesced.
Just a little true story of how television executives influence the type of content you see and who's involved in that.
The divas weren't skinny just because Vince liked it.
The USA network loved that shit.
