Amber Rose has released a new book, How to Be a Bad Bitch, and GQ, launched a "SlutWalk" to combat negative images of women.
On Instagram she posted her response to the article and the writer's overall tone of the interview saying,
"Really @gq??? I'm so much more then Kanye's Ex or Wiz's baby's mama. Damn, why the fuck did u guys reach out to me for this article and photoshoot? To dumb me down? I talked about feminism and my Slutwalk... Wtf nice title smh I expected so much more from u guys and I'm so disappointed. I was so excited to be featured in GQ not realizing I was shooting for a tabloid. My slutwalk was for ignorant shit like this. Oh "Her beautiful dark twisted journey to the top"? Nice pun. Negative af. Thx for nothing."
To be fair......the article does have a certain "tone" to it, but it does not "dumb" down Amber to the extent she claims in her IG posting. But she has a right to her feelings. The writer did include some salient quotes and points from Amber about slut shaming and building her brand.
Amber on sex: "As a woman, it’s like…fuck! You have to act like a nun for a guy to respect you. And even if you do wait to have sex and you’re very comfortable and you do exactly what you want to do in that moment, you have to be very careful because you don’t want to be looked at as a ho,” she says, exasperated. “How do you win? You do exactly what you want to do. And if it doesn’t work out, then he’s just not meant for you.”Amber, the businesswoman: “I have my own house. I have a Ferrari I have a Jeep. I have an Escalade. I have two Can-Ams. I have a beautiful son, two assistants, lawyers, business managers, management, and access to pretty much whatever I want,” she says. “It does become intimidating for a man. I do feel more comfortable with someone who’s living up to par with me.”Amber on moving beyond Kanye and being called a "ho": "“Why would I go listen to Amber talk? She’s only famous because she fucked Kanye…who the fuck wants to listen to her? It’s a fair point,” she admits. “I get it. But now that you’re here, we’re gonna really talk about slut shaming. I really want you guys to sit down and think about the act that your mother had to do with your father in order to have you. Really, fully understand that your mother is a sexual being. Is she a ho?”
