Binx Walton

[Kite]

But it's not like they hazed her in a locker room, pulled her hair, and teased her until she cried. They made one snarky comment on Instagram.

In a world where cyberbullying is the biggest form and taunting a girl, in a public forum, whoever she is, is unacceptable.

Added to the fact this girl is the current cover of Teen Vogue, and with a growing presence of models being followed by young or aspiring girls.

What they have said isn't the issue. its the immature and mean girl attitude and perpetuating stereotypical teen behaviour.

"I love Binx, she's so cool. She says its **** up, you're ****ed up"....Not cool.

I don't think people understand how bad cyber bullying can get, in the UK there have been cases of school children committing suicide because their bullies would continue to harass them after school via online technology.

If they don't like Kendall, just stay away from her, is that so hard?

I understand the issue of cyberbullying. I'm just saying this particular event has been blown out of proportion by most everyone. It was unacceptable, but should they be demonized for it? I definitely don't think so.

You're right, as long as Lexi and Binx apologise and are sincere, then I think this whole issue should pass.

Come on guys, it's just a comment on Instagram.

Anyway, do you think any model would be pleased to know that they had a lot of hard work to get to the top (doing dozens of castings per day, getting a lot of failures), and then they have Kendal, who just came with her followers and walking the same big shows as they are? I don't think so.

But why would Binx and Lexi be angry at Kendall?. The same designers who are hiring Kendall because she is from a celeb family are hiring Binx and Lexi because they themselves are the flavour of the month for Steven M/Karl. Modelling is not a meritocracy, Binx and Lexi are not working any harder than Kendall.

Do you people even know what cyberbullying is? There's a real definition to it, one that sociology, psychology and even the police has very well written.
If they happen to loose jobs because of this, they will only be given reason. Because it would only be because of money and/or Kanye that someone would fire a good professional because she said "this is the best she has ever looked" and "that's ****ed up"... ONCE. Cyberbullying isn't about saying ONE "mean" comment about someone. Bulling is harassment! People can go to jail for that. So stop being drama queens and let these girls breath. Many people say even worse things here on TFS and no one cares. If people would loose jobs or go to jail for saying "you're ugly" to someone the world would have ended a long time ago... Damn such drama for nothing...

(Being mean isn't trivial in my book)

(As a public face, you need to be seen to be taking responsibilities for your actions)


This is noting to do with the Kardashian/Jenners.

Bullies shouldn't be tolerated. It is a crime in any form. If these girls had done this to any other model it wouldn't be a laughable or admirable offence.

Im against bullying, not pro Kendall.

If they loose jobs because of BULLYING another person, whoever that person is, regardless of their fame level, family ties or anything, that is justified.

I would think that Kendall would have a thicker skin than to be as affected as those taking up for her seem to be over someone (even a fellow model) making one mocking comment about an unflattering photo of her online.

Kendall has allegedly done worse face-to-face and she was not compelled to make a public apology nor take responsibility for her actions. But since that person was not a celebrity more famous than her, I guess she did not have to fear how it affects her image as a public face that has many young followers.

No one would find it funny if this happened to another model because no one would care that it happened to another model. No news stories, no apology, no ill wishes that the offenders lose jobs. It has everything to do with the Kardashians/Jenners that it has gotten this far or that anyone wants some type of punishment.

The industry is not so righteous as to punish models for being mean to each other. They wouldn't lose jobs because they're "bullies". The only reason that either Lexi or Binx would lose a job would be because of Kendall's celebrity. That's not justice because the punishment is not for the "crime".

I don't see why any client who isn't in Kanye's pocket that has supported Binx throughout her career would stop doing so over this incident.

i read the article posted a few pages back... and i don't see what the big deal is?
as it relates to binx in particular...

i certainly don't think her comment is that egregious that she shouldn't be hired again, ever. so long as she keeps bringing it and doing her job (as evident by all her campaigns, for instance) it should be a non-issue.

i must say this is also making me root for her more, to be honest
