Maybe somewhat but it's not like she should be immune from criticism either

[(Anonymous)]

Where in the secret does it say she'd be immune?

[(Anonymous)]

Her and pretty much every damn female celebrity.

[(Anonymous)]

But how much of that is because we just don't really criticize male celebrities for anything at all short of decades' worth of physical or sexual abuse?

This.

[(Anonymous)]

+100000000000000000000

[(Anonymous)]

AYRT maybe i'very missed something. What is she being criticised for??

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah this. Can't wait for this place to inevitably try to argue against this though.

[(Anonymous)]

Girl or guy, it doesn't change the fact she can't enunciate her words.

[(Anonymous)]

You sound white as hell if you think that's the main criticism she faces

[(Anonymous)]

white woman faced with criticism for brownface. only explanation? sexism

[(Anonymous)]

I've worked with Italians with her skin tone.

[(Anonymous)]

The only Italian dude I know of who fake tans that hard is Pauly D.

So... I don't know if your point holds up to scrutiny.

[(Anonymous)]

does she get it worse bc she's female? probably

would people still make fun of a white guy who suddenly started acting like a black guy or a white guy who got a japanese tattoo with the wrong characters? absolutely

[(Anonymous)]

I think some of the criticism against her would still be there, but not all of it, and not with the same tone.

IMO a lot of people look for reasons to disparage and dismiss female celebrities, in a way that they don't for male celebs*. And when they find something, anything, there's a kind of enjoyment and public contagiousness to the disparagement and dismissal that isn't usually there with male celebs.

*This generalization excludes the fairly small but vocal minority of over-the-top SJWs who perceive misogyny in every single thing a man says and have zero sense of scale or situational complexity. Those people exist too, they're just a much smaller percentage of the population IMO.

[(Anonymous)]

This is real bad timing when she just when on a multitweet rant complete with slurs about how the pro-choice movement is turning fetuses into burgers. I'd criticize that coming from a man, too.

[(Anonymous)]

I googled it, checked her twitter, and I'm getting nothing. Links?

[greghousesgf]

I don't know about that but I find her music very boring.

[(Anonymous)]

How does that make her committing brownface any better? inb4 she’s Italian!!! Defense this is her real skin tone

[(Anonymous)]

Italian people are descended from Romans who had slaves from all over the world so they tend to be a little bit more mixed race looking than most European people. (Spanish people also often have African ancestors because of historical reasons).

[(Anonymous)]

Didn't her fucking concert mean a bunch of straight girls overtaking Pride at one point, making a number of LGBTQ+ people feeling uncomfortable on what's supposed to be their event?

[(Anonymous)]

Ummm, so we're blaming her for shit her fans are doing?

Seriously?

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, probably. I don't know much about this person, but even if 100% of the criticism she has received is well-founded, you're probably still right, because people are just more willing to criticize women.

[(Anonymous)]

italians (especially italian americans) are spicy white. they're still white though and ariana deserves every bit of criticism for her brown faced bullshit.

[(Anonymous)]

i agree. i also feel like a lot of the criticism has an undertone of "we liked you better when you were happy".
