this is the first, THE FIRST TIME i have ever seen a photoshoot like this with the gender roles this way round. i’ve lost count of the number of “fashion” photo/editorials i’ve seen where some girl model lies beaten up and bleeding on the ground in an alleyway, or a girl poses in couture while being strangled by a guy, or a female celebrity poses with fake bruises. like, it’s such a well-recognised trope in the fashion world that they did a feature in one of those “[___]’s Next Top Model” shows, where the girls posed as murder and assault victims while wearing couture. there have been a couple of male celebrity “injury” photoshoots, but as i recall it was stuff like justin beiber attempting to appear more adult by looking like he’d just been in a fight.

You know, I think in the first two at least he’s supposed to be alive. The next four, especially that last one? Pretty sure he’s supposed to be dead and she’s just posing with him for shits and giggles. Crime Boss Points > 9000. 

At least, that’s the story I’m reading from the photos. Someone else might have read something different.

want more conversation about this.
