Valentina Sampaio will be Victoria's Secret's first transgender model following the controversial comments Ed Razek made last year about including trans and plus-size models in their annual fashion show.
, "If you're asking if we've considered putting a transgender model in the show or looked at putting a plus-size model in the show, we have."
"Do I think about diversity? Yes. Does the brand think about diversity? Yes. Do we offer larger sizes? Yes," he said."It's like, why doesn't your show do this? Shouldn't you have transsexuals in the show? No. No, I don't think we should. Well, why not? Because the show is a fantasy. It's a 42-minute entertainment special. That's what it is.
"As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, I have no tolerance for a lack of inclusivity. Especially not one motivated by stereotype," she wrote."If you are a trans person reading this, and these comments made you feel alienated or invalidated please know that you have allies. We stand in solidarity, and complete and total acceptance is the only"fantasy" that I support...
said that L Brands' chief executive Leslie Wexner announced in a memo to the chain's associates that the event would no longer air on network television after a nearly two-decade run. Wexler said that the company had been"taking a fresh look at every aspect of our business" in recent months, and that the brand"must evolve and change to grow."
