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.”

god damn I hate American Apparel and their ever apparent shaming of plus size women.

No comment on shaming or anything of that nature, but the fact that she went out to lampoon this and won is fantastic.

This lady is awesome. No two ways about it.

A giant FUCK YOU to american apparel and one (1) million virtual smooches to Nancy Upton.

I was doing a basic image search the other day for something to use as a cover for my paper on the M1 Garand Rifle.  Somehow I stumbled upon this.  Won’t say this is a crush, but I say that man as a nice butt.

For a slightly more detailed story on the mystery man with the wonderful tush : http://paulinespiratesandprivateers.blogspot.com/2012/03/booty-bravest-of-brave.html

… we got a call to pick up an airman who was down in the Bay. The Japanese were shooting at him from the island, and when they saw us they started shooting at us. The man who was shot down was temporarily blinded, so one of our crew stripped off his clothes and jumped in to bring him aboard. He couldn’t have swum very well wearing his boots and clothes. As soon as we could, we took off. We weren’t waiting around for anybody to put on formal clothes. We were being shot at and wanted to get the hellout of there. The naked man got back into his position at his gun in the blister of the plane. - Horace Bristol

Wow!
