My heart hurts. The people I looked up to the most and was lucky enough to build incredible friendships w got Archived. It’s hard for me to not feel a certain way when my friends and models were treated poorly right in front of me.
@leemalee was one of the first photographers I worked with at my first shoot fest. I was so nervous but her and I clicked instantly and ever since then I’ve been so thankful for her. She didn’t deserve this archive. She’s done so much for this company and also has helped me grow in so many ways for this company. Really breaks my heart.
@tigerlilly I’ve looked up to for so so many years, I was just recently at one her events and it was the most professional, well put together event I’ve ever been to. She cares so much for us models and always makes sure there’s a safe space for us. If anything she’s the voice for US and didn’t deserve that archive. I’ve looked up to both of these strong women for so long it breaks my heart that this has happened.
Many other models and members got archived and I wish things went a different way because now it feels like things can never go back. I love SG I’m literally in tears having to write this because I’ve been obsessed w this company since 13 years old. I thought this was a place for us to be free and speak what’s on our mind. We’re all adults. I wish this was handled more professionally. I don’t have much to say other than I’m crushed, this was a dream of mine and now I feel like turning pink would be betraying my friends and what I thought SG stood for.
