Another day another Twitter debate! The Vol. 4 Savage X Fenty show is currently on Amazon Prime, and 18 yr old Marsai Martin who participated in the show, is now a hot topic.
According to PS Rihanna enlisted a cast of celebrities, dancers, and a few musical acts — including Anitta, Burna Boy, Don Toliver, and Maxwell — to bring her seductive fever dream to life, and once again, set the bar high for the fashion world.
Celebrity appearances include Cara Delevingne, Damson Idris, Irina Shayk, Sheryl Lee Ralph, Simu Liu, Taylour Paige, Johnny Depp, and of course Marsai.
Before we hop into the conversation, here is a clip of Marsai:

She killed it, and while the ‘think pieces’ on Twitter somewhat agree, many are saying that an 18 yr old should not be sexualized.
Read a few opinions below:
It’s the fact everyone thinks I have a problem with cleavage but I really have a problem with putting an 18 year old in a lingerie show with grown ass people and a sexual abuser. I think y’all need to re-evaluate and realize 18 year olds are children. She shouldn’t be in the show
and its just a shame we live in a culture where once a girl turns 18 theres this rush to sexualize her. I agree w you that shes not wearing anything /too/ revealing but that doesnt change the fact that its a lingerie show.

Thank you, there is nothing sexy about an 18 year old she is still a child.

And I know Marsai wanted to do but it was up for the adults around her to say no given the show was full of GROWN ASS MEN and abuser. Or for Rihanna to not even ask.

It’s crazy- the same people (usually men) that don’t want children learning and even hearing about sex or sexual liberation because they think it’s inappropriate are gagging over a 18 year old in a show for a lingerie line , been waiting for her to turn 18 cause “legal” ?

Others think …she simply did well, and the hoopla isn’t necessary:

Marsai Martin is literally minding her business + being the IT girl that she is…and everyone wants to come around with their think pieces after her Savage Fenty debut…like can she enjoy the moment??? Unless she came out and said it was terrible + she was preyed on…why?

Speaking of ‘grown’ Marsai recently announced her first-ever digital fashion collection.
In her caption, she said she designed the collection with her little boss girl genie to encourage people to spread their wings and empower themselves.
Even beyond the physical world.
