Saw this on Facebook and the amount of irony in it is overwhelming. Yaya stated in episode two of Heroes of cosplay, that a cosplayer should take responsibility to know what they look like and pretty much stating and backing up Riki's comment of that not anyone can cosplay anything and that if they do then they should expect the criticism. I just find the whole thing so laughable! Maybe you should take your own advice Yaya!

What are your thoughts on this?!

There are some pretty kick as fan art versions out there.

I think the problem is that both of their outfits take away from the original character, with Monika's poison Ivy is that it was poorly designed and looks terrible. Yaya's looks goes completely against the original Disney character(since the whole group is obviously based on the Disney versions) and is well, kind of trashy looking.

>> No.7074693

Well Yaya's deleting some of the worst comments, it seems. And naturally she's only replying to the racist comments, not the ones calling her out on being a hypocrite about the whole sexualizing non-sexual characters thing.

It's like a sneaky ploy to get the comments onto her side in riot-fashion. "LOOK! SOMEONE'S BEING RACIST! LETS ALL TALK ABOUT THAT AND NOT THE FACT THAT I TURNED SHOW-WHITE INTO A FANCY LEG AVENUE COSTUME."

But that's exactly what she did.

the reason showing cleavage and dressing sexy exists is to be sexually attractive. the first woman to push her boobs up and display cleavage didn't do it just for the hell of it. she wanted a man.

Doesn't this whole subject centre around intent?

And a huge mis-use of the word 'slut'.

If someone likes a character and likes a fashion or trend (e.g. lolita, steampunk etc) then there is no good reason why they can't combine the two. That doesn't mean you have to like it, it doesn't mean that you have to agree, but what other people do isn't up to you. No one can say 'oh well this character can't do XYZ by anyone because I say so' and legitimately expect anyone to take them seriously?

That's not to say you can't have an opinion. Personally I agree with the majority of this thread that having one of the oldest cosplayers cosplay the youngest Disney Princess (from the official line up anyway) in such a sexualised version just seems akward. Especially that design. That said, I am open to the possibility that someone might pull off a 'sexy' version if that's their prerogative.

But I really do disagree, on a major level, with calling girls in 'sexy' costumes sluts.

To me that is like saying raven's are black and therefore everything black must be a raven. Which we can all agree is nonsense.

Sluts can, and do, wear sexy costumes. But that doesn't mean sexy costumes make someone a slut. I say that because I've known demure girls cosplay sexy things because it makes them feel sexy and they like that feeling. Or because they really like a design or a concept. And I've known them cosplay full ball gowns and everything in between. I can say the same for girls who have sex a lot or a little.

This use of the word 'slut' whenever a girl shows some skin (and let's face it, the burlesque examples in this thread don't show any more than a pair of shorts and a tank top would) implies that all girls should be inherently ashamed of their bodies and wear as much as possible all of the time because if not they're a slut.

There will be those who will take popular or iconic characters and make sexy versions of them, tighter fitting, shorter skirts, thigh high slits, low necklines, backless dresses. There's a multitude of ways to do it. And their sole intent will be to garner attention.

That makes them attention seekers.

It does not actually make them sluts.

If they use that attention to get sex.

That makes them a slut.

I understand why she's upset since it really doesn't matter what race you are when it comes of cosplaying, but the way she's saying it threw me off.

It's more that she says people shouldn't cosplay a character if they're not thin/buff/busty/pretty enough, but she has never stopped from doing caucasian characters, flat chested characters or tall characters. The hypocrisy is the issue.

She actually made time to shoot with every photographer who waited around or asked her for a few pictures while she was in her snow white outfit on the 10th floor of the Marriott. She would go from one to another. She never gives a rat ass to low skilled, unknown, non professional photographers. I only wondered if she is doing this because of the TV show or because many of the "pro" photographers are slowly deciding not to work with her anymore.

You sound like you have a little vendetta going on there. Nice try, but there were several girls like Bethany Maddock and Destiny Nickelsen that did their own Moulin Rouge group completely unrelated to Yaya and her minions. It wasn't even planned the same day. Good thing, too. Their costumes came out better than half of Yaya's group.

More people doing it doesn't make it any more appealing a design / excuse how mediocre she crafted it.

well PERSONALLY I don't have a problem with jnigs OR girls in skimpy costumes as long as it's done right, but if by 'you', you mean /cgl/ then you are probably right.
Seriously though, most the criticism I've seen is about her how she chose to execute the costume (poorly, looks nowhere near as cool as the original art), not the choice itself.

I'm so sick of coming here every other day and having to hide at least one thread about this cheat.

Yeah, unless they had permits to film, they can't tell you to gtfo. Anytime any production rolls up on your space, ask to see permits. If they don't have permits, threaten to call cops. The production company will leave before getting caught.

LOL wow let me clear something up. A lot of photographers were on the 10th for majority of the weekend. The only time people were told to clear up space was for the 501st dinner party that is held every year on Saturday at Dragoncon. They didn't close down the entire floor, just one half of it (Which they clearly marked off and had someone on staff stand guard).
This sounds like some Homestucks were tricked into giving up their own spot for them. I know exactly where the homestucks were set up. 2nd to last section on the right side (facing the entrance of the hotel)

her beef had nothing to do with sexualizing things that weren't.
it has everything to do with the fact that jnig sells herself ONLY on her sex appeal, not her construction, not her design, not the whole package.
