Hobbes Posted January 5 Posted January 5 Because it wasn't happening amongst a slew of other 'scandals' or bad press. People were already dogpiling on Jesy before she started dressing like an estate agent going for drinks at Slug & Lettuce on a Saturday night.
Jagger Posted January 6 Posted January 6 Ariana makes coworker music. Those types are uncancellable 1
ArtDeco Posted January 6 Posted January 6 Ariana introduced herself musically as a solo artist rather than being in a girl group, so we got used to her presence from Yours Truly. Also, clock that she essentially built her youtube clout on impersonating other singers like Britney and Xtina. By the time it got to My Everything, she was big enough to be on a global brand level (perfumes, fashion wear, partnerships etc.) Then she was able to have a smooth transition to her Atlanta gurl wannabe era since she had been building it up after being with Big Sean
mike_int Posted January 6 Posted January 6 Ariana is much bigger star, therefore much bigger backlash

When people get outraged or call someone out, it's usually that they finally feel like they have a reason to justify why they don't like them. View things in this context and most of the confusion around who gets canceled / who doesn't will begin to make sense. This is basically the answer. Pop stans will develop "morals" for artists they like and un-look/justify for anyone they dislike 1
brazil Posted January 7 Posted January 7 (edited) Do people used to think Ari was black? I used to think she was Latina especially due to her last name, maybe buracial but I guess Italian is also close enough Edited January 7 by brazil
Shelter Posted January 7 Posted January 7 People pick and choose. Poor Jesy, things just go from bad to worse for her. Sampling Diddy and having him in your video 1
burninredhot Posted January 8 Posted January 8 Ariana gets alot of backlash for it tho? More people know Ariana for "blackfishing" than they know who Jesy Nelson even is... The difference is just that Ariana has a good PR team to clear her name and most of her fans just dgaf
