Woman Who Made Fun Of American Apparel Contest Wins, American Apparel Act Like A Bunch Of Babies

Nancy Upton, the gorgeous prankster who satirized American Apparel’s condescending search for a plus-sized model with smutty and silly overindulgence photos, actually won the online contest! Then American Apparel acted all American Apparel and wouldn’t recognize her victory, even though she had far and away the most votes. Here are some more of the photos that lampooned the contest and won the hearts of online voters.

American Apparel’s Pissy Response To Nancy Upton, In Part

“It’s a shame that your project attempts to discredit the positive intentions of our challenge based on your personal distaste for our use of light-hearted language, and that “bootylicous” was too much for you to handle. While we may be a bit TOO inspired by Beyoncé, and do have a tendency to occasionally go pun-crazy, we try not to take ourselves too seriously around here. I wonder if you had taken just a moment to imagine that this campaign could actually be well intentioned, and that my team and I are not out to offend and insult women, would you have still behaved in the same way, mocking the confident and excited participants who put themselves out there?”

… “Oh—and regarding winning the contest, while you were clearly the popular choice, we have decided to award the prizes to other contestants that we feel truly exemplify the idea of beauty inside and out, and whom we will be proud to have representing our company.”

Someone else hire this woman to model for their products in rebellion please

“We try not to take ourselves to seriously around here, which is why we don’t think your joke is very fucking fun you little smartass.”

i’m always gonna reblog this cuz this lady is hilarious and also really really damn hot

Fucking. GENIUS!

Here’s her Tumblr:

Thank you so, so much.

If I were to ever become a fashion designer I would hire her as a “plus size” model so hard. Evidently I believe she would be fun to work with and could bring new ideas to the photoshoot since she is obviously very playful and creative. <3

Do you think she accepts marriage proposals over the internet?

AIDS is still with us, still taking too many lives.

AIDS is still with us, still taking too many lives.:

Notwithstanding wonderful treatment advances, HIV/AIDS still kills surprising numbers of Americans every year. It’s hard to be too precise here, since people living with HIV and AIDS can die of other causes. Since the epidemic began, more than 600,000 Americans have died after being diagnosed with AIDS. In 2009, there were another 18,000 estimated deaths of persons with AIDS diagnoses across the United States.* To put this in context, about 9,100 Americans died in gun homicides that same year. The annual AIDS death toll continues to rival the annual toll of American combat deaths during the worst years in Vietnam.

I’ve been told when a human dies the Soul misses the Body.

Actually grieves, grieves the loss of its hands and all they could hold.

Misses the kissing lips, the searching tongue, the throat closing shy

“And I know Fuck is a bad word, but it sounds so good.
Good, like flipping off the preacher
whenever he forgets that Eve was Adam’s teacher,
‘cause apples are fucking healthy you patriarchal piece of shit.”
