Like we are normalized to him wearing eyeliner, sometimes I forget that he wears it, hence why his clean face photos always get such a reaction. No proof, just inquiring that maybe it was necessary to have eyes that screamed "LOOK AT MY EYELINER, BUY MEEEE" I have been a Kat fan for a long time and have been considering switching from using Stilla eyeliner to KatVonD, this product made my decision! I've been needed some new eyeliner anyways, might as well make it Billie's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lizziebix Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 Just this week had an argument (their fault) with the Kat Von D website. I'm really hoping Sephora will be carrying this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw people taking offense in that, but does anyone actually know more about it? I don't know what to think about it and I didn't find much (Nobody seemed to have a problem with it though when they worked together on Project Chimps, when she tattooed him, when Adie posted pictures of her lipglosses on her instagram... so I guess their real problem is that he's advertising for something and that's "not punk") Yep, like you said, those rumors came about in 2011. She was engaged to Jesse James after photos came out of him in regalia and doing the salute (possibly taken in 2010 when he was cheating on Sandra Bullock with "Bombshell" McGee, who has also flirted with Nazism). I don't know enough about her and my memory is a little rusty on the scandal, but I don't think she immediately disavowed/broke up with him, so there's questions about whether she was super bothered by the Nazism.

I don't really know details on this but it's entirely possible that she could've discovered that about him and had to work through the emotional side of loving someone for who you thought they were vs something terrible you find out about them and then left shortly after. Granted, if she knew for years or something, that reflects pretty poorly on her and hopefully she has since realized how incredibly horrible that is. I'm just saying that not leaving him that instant doesn't necessarily mean she condoned it (though definitely not trying to excuse it if she did).

Actually i think the shoot would have been cool if they had styled billie and Adrienne in the makeup...it would make more sense with the Sid and Nancy/punk rock love nod. The shoot definitely gives off a sexual vibe, which makes me vaguely uncomfortable even though I know billie and Kat are just friends Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least to me it does. And not that I WANT that to be there because, of course, I'm glad he's loyal to his wife (I assume) but for advertising purposes it creates sort of a weird element. Like everyone knows magic isn't real but you can still enjoy the illusion if you don't know the full truth behind the scenes. In this case, we do. So why not just go for the real deal?

jengd Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 Do all cosmetic and fashion shoots not have sexual overtones at the very least? I guess a lot of fans would love to have seen Billie and Addie in this, especially with the Sid & Nancy inspiration, but most people on seeing the advert, would say “who is that” and it is KvD’s product and company so I think it makes sense. I think they’ve managed to stop it from moving into creepy because we know they are all friends and but they still look sexy and great. Gold handcuffs, who knew lol Just remembered , was there not a gif of Billie from the WMUWSE video captioned with Maybilliene or something. Will look later.

Hero_Of_The_Hour Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 Get a grip people. Kat is a sexy lady. This is a sexy shoot. They look sexy together. Kat owns the makeup line. This is Billie's collaboration with Kat. They are selling their product. Why in the name of God would they market the product with Billie's wife instead of the owner of the brand? Because Kat's too sexy?! This is hurting my head Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw people taking offense in that, but does anyone actually know more about it? I don't know what to think about it and I didn't find much I did a quick Google as there are quite a lot of comments on IG about Kat being anti-Semitic. It seems she had an incident of her own prior to dating or becoming engaged to the guy who dressed up as a nazi when she was working at Miami Ink. Reality television star/tattoo artist Kat Von D raised some eyebrows this past week, when news surfaced that the illustrated woman had sent her former Israeli-born employer, Ami James, an autographed photo some months ago bearing a swastika and the invective “burn in hell Jewbag.” https://www.google.ie/amp/s/www.jta.org/2008/02/11/news-opinion/the-telegraph/ink-star-sends-hateful-kiss-off-to-jewish-boss/amp From what I gather there have been quite a few instances of anti-Semitic comments online etc. This is all news to me. http://m.tmz.com/#2008/02/08/kat-von-d-anti-semite/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hero_Of_The_Hour Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 And for what it's worth it appears that nazi sympathiser people were talking about her dating and splitting with when she realised his leanings? Yeah not true either. His name is Jesse James. He was married to Sandra Bullock when photos of him dressed in nazi clothing and doing the nazi salute surfaced. Turns out his had an obsession with nazis his entire life. Sandra filed for divorce. Kat BEGAN dating him. I mean this stuff was all over the news. People were horrified. Then more photos of him leaked and Kat got engaged to him. https://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/814207 When they split she said it was something to do with him stealing artwork or some rubbish.

Hermione Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 If people want to google stuff about her and form opinions on her they're free to, but this thread is for talking about the eyeliner collab not general gossip about Kat Von D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pacejunkie punk Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 Well that kind of ruined the enjoyment of this whole campaign. Getting back to the discussion of whether the two look sexy together, handcuffs aside, they are just standing next to each other. At least they’re not all intertwined or simulating sex like you see in a lot of cosmetic ads. Even if they did, I see it as playing a character but granted that would feel a bit more icky than this does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
