Valentina Sampaio: Victoria’s Secret’s First Trans Model Makes History

La même semaine où il a été annoncé que la marque de lingerie la plus connue au monde, Victoria's Secret, a cessé d'organiser son célèbre défilé annuel en raison du manque de diversité, elle a décidé de prendre un coup.

Valentina Sampaio est devenue la première personne trans à faire partie de l'univers de la marque. Elle a elle-même posté sur son compte Instagram une photographie dans les coulisses du shooting pour la nouvelle campagne de la ligne Pink Victoria's Secret. Le modèle brésilien de 22 ans a écrit sur ses réseaux : "Ne cessez jamais de rêver, les gens. La vie est incroyable. Aimez plus, détestez moins. La haine est inutile, alors ne perdez pas votre temps avec ça."

La haine est inutile, alors ne perdez pas votre temps avec ça."

Laverne Cox, l'une des figures les plus importantes de la communauté transsexuelle aux États-Unis, a partagé son enthousiasme dans l'une des publications de Sampaio : "Wow, il était temps !" Elle a également parcouru les commentaires de Sampaio, son nouveau partenaire de Victoria's Secret, et aussi modèle brésilienne, Lais Ribeiro : "La première transsexuelle photographiée pour Victoria's Secret ! Cela me rend très heureuse !".
L'embauche de Sampaio intervient des mois après que la marque de lingerie a été sévèrement critiquée pour les déclarations du responsable marketing de Victoria's Secret, Ed Rezek, qui a expliqué pourquoi Victoria's Secret n'engageait pas de modèles grande taille ou de transsexuels : "Et pourquoi pas ? Parce que le spectacle est une fantaisie. C'est un spécial divertissement de 42 minutes. C'est ce que c'est. C'est le seul au monde de son genre et n'importe quelle autre marque dans le monde le prendrait instantanément, y compris les concurrents qui nous critiquent."
