Nicola Mclean: "Obese model portrayed in Gillette advert portrays unhealthy image"

omg she's absolutely massive
|
yeah that's not healthy :skull:
|
She’s kinda right I guess, being that size isn’t healthy in the slightest
|
As much as I’m against body shaming, she’s right, it’s not good to romanticise unhealthy lifestyles
|
She’s right tbh. Mean McLean spilling the tea :clap1:
We’re all for representation and inclusion but whenever someone anorexic is glorified ppl get mad (and rightfully so in a lot of ways). Always kinda annoyed me it doesn’t work the other way with obese models |
Big girls.
Up to them how they lead their lives.:shrug: Wouldn’t mind betting they have better personalities than Nicola Mclean. |

I agree with Nicola. Growing up a piled on weight due to bullying and only really snapped out of it at about 14 or 15 and honestly looking at women that overweight and seeing them celebrated is so unhealthy. There would outrage if a girl so skinny she had bones protruding all over was glamorized in the same way.
Being slightly over weight can be beautiful but the women in the adverts are dangerously obese. |
Well yes I'm not going to say that advertising should steer clear of various body shapes and sizes in the normal range, but at that size it's very unlikely that there WON'T be upcoming health complications and ignoring that is probably the wrong move.
Gillette is really knocking it out of the park at the moment... |
There is a lot I could say about this but I don't want to get banned. All I'm going to say is she will be finding it hard to use a Gillette razor in a lot of places...

I agree with what people have said though. |
Did Nicola lie tho?
|
I agree. & I'm huge :omgno:
"I may be fat, but YYYYyyyooooOUUUUUU are SUMIN' ELSE!" :laugh2: |
Sorry but i'd have guessed from photo's she was from my 300lb family ~ not modelling.
|
Yes It is not healthy to be that FAT
|
Gillette did it knowing full well it would create controversy/discussion, I won't pander to their marketing. Wouldn't surprise me if Nicola were being paid by gillette to stir it up.

...looking at very underweight models and it making her think she needs to lose weight isn’t a healthy mindset either...rather than ‘shame’ these ladies I would have thought she would have showed more thought and sensitivity and understanding as it’s exactly the same as when she was ‘celebrated for being thin’ as she said...I agree with Stephanie Yeboah, whoever she is...being obese is obviously a health issue but I don’t think ‘shaming’ is the way or is helpful...I agree with bots, it does feel as though these ladies are being exploited by Gillette which doesn’t seem to serve any positive purpose...

OK yeah, I am against body shaming and that, plus am quite overweight myself at the min ( :( ) but theres plus sized, and then there is giant. I don't like it when they use anorexic type models, so would be quite hypocritical to be for this really. Larger models (hell, half the time a size 10-12 is classed as plus sized..which is obviously wrong) are of course fine, and tbh I kind of think there should be more 'average sized' models...like say 8-16 or something rather than semingly all sized 4s, but this takes the piss a bit.
|
I'm disappointed we can't see a lost razor handle sticking out of one of her folds.
|
Nichola could of course have put it in a nicer way, but being a complete bitch seems to be her selling point so :shrug:
|
Yes, the woman in the advert is obese, it's not healthy.... but she already knows all that without some no mark insulting her. And she can always lose weight.
Conversely, Nicola McLean will always be a vacuous, uneducated, tactless bitch. The older she's getting the more timber she's piling on herself. Hopefully soon some younger, prettier woman will start calling her names. |
