美國一名台裔模特兒控訴,她先前替知名設計師無償走秀,事後卻在設計師轉發的照片中發現她的臉被換成另一張臉,質疑設計師使用AI將她後製成為「白人女性」,並對此痛批「如砍掉一個人的頭」,該事件引起國外網友關注。而設計師也對此發出回應,否認指控,不過貼文隨後被刪除。
根據英國《衛報》報導,美國台裔模特兒 Shereen Wu 近日在抖音上控訴,她替設計師 Michael Costello 無償走秀,因為他曾與Beyoncé、Jennifer Lopez 和 Celine Dion 等知名藝人合作。不過 Shereen Wu 的母親卻發現Costello 在 IG 中 PO 出的照片中, Shereen的臉被後製成「白人女性的五官」。
Shereen Wu 指出,她是一名獨立模特兒,沒有與經紀公司簽約,當時無償走秀,只是希望能夠藉此機會提升的她曝光與知名度,「但我沒有得到,因為這是一張被編輯過的照片」。
Shereen Wu 表示,她很震驚「誰會像這樣砍掉一個人的頭」,她將事件曝光是希望大家能夠理解,「作品被偷是多麼痛苦,這是非常沒有人性的,我們之所以為人類,是在於有能力創造美麗的事物,把這份美麗扭曲成醜陋的事物是很可怕的想法」。
Shereen Wu 影片目前已經累積180萬次觀看,引起網友們熱議,而 Michael Costello 隨後也在IG上發出聲明,否認修圖,並聲稱照片是來自「粉絲的創意」,但他既然轉發就有責任,並表示他看到 Shereen Wu 的影片才知道她是無償走秀,已經補償她。而他的品牌也將對 Shereen Wu 所做出的虛假指控採取法律程序,不過該則貼文發布不到24小時就被刪除,目前 Michael Costello 也將 IG 留言功能關閉。
@shereenwu Michael Costello has yet to take responsibility for his actions. I want to explain what happened, and I hope other models in the future feel comfortable to speak up. He has since offered to post my photo side by side with the AI one, but has not voluntarily post it. This offer did not contain an apology, and only happened after a model who’s close with him brought light to the situation. Some points I couldn’t fit: -Replaced the face of a model from the same collection -Lightened the skin of a black model in a photo and proceeded to push blame on the makeup artist (mua did not lighten the skin) -Screamed at models backstage (he screamed at the girl who stumbled on the runway to near tears, only to make an Instagram post praising her after.) But considering how long he’s been acting like this, I doubt any apology from him would be sincere; they would be performative at best. (Sorry for the weird cuts and sped up video I was trying to fit as much as I can in) #michaelcostello #greenscreenvideo #drama #michaelcostellocontroversy ♬ original sound - shereenwu
