Amber Rose Isn't Here for Lame Attempts at Slut-Shaming
You would think by now that people would know better than to take cheap, unfunny, slut-shaming digs at Amber Rose, but apparantly, the writers over at GQ didn't get the memo.
In a recent profile, the popular men's lifestyle mag called Muva nothing more than "Kanye's infamous ex, Wiz Khalifa's baby mama," and a whole slew of other nonsensical things that ditracted from the fact that she is one of this year's breakout feminist icons. (Ahem GQ, does the Amber Rose SlutWalk ring any bells?!?)
Long story short, Amber wasn't happy about it. At all.
"Really @gq??? I'm so much more then Kanye's Ex or Wiz's baby's mama," she wrote in an Instagram post expressing her dissatisfaction with the way she was portrayed. "Damn, why the fuck did u guys reach out to me for this article and photoshoot? To dumb me down? I talked about feminism and my Slutwalk... Wtf nice title smh I expected so much more from u guys and I'm so disappointed. I was so excited to be featured in GQ not realizing I was shooting for a tabloid. My slutwalk was for ignorant shit like this. Oh "Her beautiful dark twisted journey to the top"? Nice pun. Negative af. Thx for nothing."
Lesson of the day: don't come for Amber Rose. She'll absolutely slay you.
Bye, haters!
