It’s all performative. Thanks for checking. 

Is all outrage “performative” of just the outrage you don’t share?

No way, man. In my world, there are fashion models who are also awesome people and then there’s everyone else. I checked Shalom Harlow’s coat once and I thought I’d die, she was so sweet (and a big tipper too). Every time I’ve passed Paulina Porizkova on the street, I’ve done a triple-take. Paulina has seen things

Binx Walton exactly fits the physical parameters of the the fashion industry’s requirements for models, which can be see as problematic. But we were talking about models, right? Perhaps (perhaps) Olivia Jade is adorable, like a troll doll. She isn’t a model.

Binx Walton is a runway model and you’re talking about her as if being 5'11", 110lbs, and beautiful is earned instead of a genetic lottery. If we’re using your logic, why is Walton walking for Celine and not me? 

You’re right, I won’t judge but I especially won’t judge those who judge because I get it, believe me I do.

What is there to “relate” to? Honestly, have you watched her videos? She has no personality to speak of. She’s not funny or interesting or even all that nice. I don’t know what a “lack-of-self-awareness schtick” is and I doubt ya girl OJ does either.

You’re a better person than me. I will judge her, because she sucks, and suck-ass people getting over will never not be annoying. I don’t think she needs to be unnecessarily punished or humiliated for what her parents did, but I do wish she’d just disappear. The world does not need any Olivia Jades. She makes Kim

There are still plenty of real fashion models for fifteen-year-olds to look up to. Ya know, girls who maybe came from war-torn countries or trailer parks and work very hard for very little money until they land that big ad campaign or cosmetic contract. Maybe if Binx Walton had rich assholes for parents, Amazon would

There’s certainly a market for kids whose parents just totally RUINED EVERYTHING MOM I HATE YOU! So yeah, she’ll be making rent next month no doubt about it.

I don’t worship at the altar of capitalism, kid, and I’m sorry it hurts your feelings that I think influencers are a dumb thing. I hope it’s not too distressing that I also think “unboxing” videos are a sign of the end times.

I saw a reality show about people with ugly tattoos. One guy came on and talked about how he used to be in a super famous boyband and they had lots of hits and had hordes of crazy groupies after them. He was so stuck in the past it was painful to watch. He made a big thing about revealing which band it was, and when

I never see folks out-and-about looking like the lower picture.  Are those for-social-media-only looks that don’t make it out of the house, or am I just successfully avoiding the right places?

This girl isn’t a model, though. She’s just some boring rich girl from IDK Calabasas? I understand why people tore out pics of Naomi Campbell to plaster their bedroom walls with. Following Olivia Jade is like caring about that girl who works at Blue Mercury at the Short Hills Mall.

I’m really afraid that she’s going to parlay this into a Kardashian like fame. Cue the sex tape and strange gossip magazine rumors about her butt/boobs/etc. 

But she didn’t become a model or actor. She went the useless attractive-people-turned-tastemaker route, and I have little to no respect, and a lot of bafflement, for those.

Yes, she is the first person to turn her physical appearance into those things. Models, actors, and attractive-people-turned-tastemakers have never existed before her. Burn her. 

What part of her collection brings out those cold dead eyes?

I don’t know...I’m thinking she looks 35ish in the pic w/ her full makeup. Looking 35ish would be rad if you’re 50. But she’s 19 right? This double bubble airhead of a girl...

She’s really captured the wet burnt pudding look we all crave. Proud of her for picking herself up and allowing us to judge her vacuousness on her own merits.
