Whatever money she makes off it she'll be broke within a year. Common occurrence with this demographic.

I feel for the victim. I know exactly what it's like. It doesn't ever end.

Wonder how many other companies are going to do something like this.

If they want to generate controversy, why not do a commercial where a black woman steps into a shower with a bar of soap and leaves a white woman

I remember some Italian detergent company did something similar like 10 years ago.
That would be a jaw dropping commercial, can you imagine?

Why don't they just do something less obnoxious like offer different color soaps to match your skin tone with formulations for fair skin, olive skin, dark skin? Sort of remarket their soaps for dry skin, oily skin, combination skin, etc. I don't love the idea, myself, but it might strike a chord with some people.

I've never heard of the colleges she went to. I wonder if they are private and very pricey.

This strikes me as someone who signed a contract to work for her company and now wants to be terminated with a golden parachute. Maybe she feels her biological clock ticking and wants to get going on that.

I'm skeptical that she came up with something this bad on accident.

No. Dove is a Unilever brand. They own hundreds. Other Unilever brands that can be boycotted.

Axe
Suave shampoo
Ben and Jerrys Ice Cream
Bryers
Klondike Ice Cream Bars
Vaseline
Knorr
Q Tips
Helmann's Mayonase
Skippy Peanut Butter
Lipton Ice Tea

The company is also very Pro-DEI.

I think that articles and posts should stick to the main point and that is that Bryant is a LIAR. It doesn't matter how much she weighs.

P.S. (Sigh) One MORE brand for me to boycott.
her fatness is a key part of the story.

The ones who will be hurt by this are the shareholders.

Disgusting that she would be rewarded for her behavior. I don't care one bit that she's fat.

Companies need to stop rewarding bad behavior.
