loveismyrealname:

today i showed a white agent the front splash page for my upcoming website. i was using Eugena Washington from Muse and actor Donovan Christie Jr.. and she suggested that i use a blonde white girl instead of Eugenia … that 2 “ethnic” models back to back in front of my website would hurt my chances of making money. she said regardless of how great the photographs are, i needed to really consider the ratio of blacks and whites in the industry and focus on pleasing white ppl in the business.
it is what it is …
i just dont know how to feel about this anymore.
