There's no denying that Amber Rose looks absolutely flawless in her latest nude photo shoot, but GQ was completely out of line for referring to her only as the ex of Kanye West and Wiz Khalifa when she's so much more than that.
The GQ article, which is titled "Amber Rose: How to Be a Bad Bitch" after her new book definitely gets one thing right: she is fierce, and she is not someone to mess with. That being said, the magazine is only going against its own word as it praises her for being successful, a feminist and standing up for what she believes in, only to put her down by giving her titles based solely off the men she's dated.
"Amber Rose wrote the book on it," the article reads, referring to the title. "No, seriously: Kanye's infamous ex, Wiz Khalifa's baby mama, America's toughest bald babe since Sigourney Weaver in 'Alien 3,' is about to publish a book of life lessons called 'How to Be a Bad Bitch.'"
Once the article was released, Rose couldn't believe what she was reading. "Really @gq???" she captioned a photo of the article. "I'm so much more then Kanye's Ex or Wiz's baby's mama. Damn, why the f-k 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 excited to be featured in GQ not realizing I was shooting for a tabloid. My slutwalk was for ignorant s-t like this. Oh 'Her beautiful dark twisted journey to the top'? Nice pun. Negative af. Thx for nothing."
Rose even acknowledges within the article the fact that she has this reputation as "the most famous girlfriend in rap history" as she defends herself. "I know before you guys got in here, you had conversations with your friends, like: 'Why would I go listen to Amber talk? She's only famous because she f-ked Kanye...who the f-k wants to listen to her?" she told GQ writer Carrie Bratton. "It's a fair point. 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?"
Just recently, Rose even forgave her ex's for once publicly slut shaming her at her first-ever "SlutWalk," which brought in hundreds of supporters, as HNGN previously reported. Now, it seems as though the magazine is doing the exact thing she's trying to get people to stop doing.
"To be told that I was nothing but a stripper, it hurt," she told the crowd before announcing that she forgives them for what they said. "I suggest that you guys do the same and I'll tell you why. Because they're ignorant at times. People are ignorant. And you have to be the bigger person to be a positive person, to forgive and move on to help other people around you who have been through the same thing."
