IStandWithJackie is trending after Jackie Aina deactivated her twitter account amidst drama
Twitter is a place where trolls are abundant and cancel culture is boldest, and its latest focus is Jackie Aina. The beauty YouTuber has come under fire after she offered up support to beauty influencer Chelsie Worthy, who accused Manny MUA and Patrick Starrr of copying her"traptorial" video style. In these tutorials, Worthy does her makeup to the beat of popular hip-hop songs, employing quick cut step-by-steps, choreo, and graphics.
Worthy's initial callout was directed toward Starrr on Twitter, who posted a lip-sync-style tutorial featuring the Jackie Aina x ABH palette."I was a Patrick Starr Stan," she wrote in a tweet."This is the ugly industry we are in, though. I have NEVER been welcomed or wanted and this fully solidifies that. It's never 'groundbreaking' until 'someone else' does it.
— Chelsie August 26, 2019 Worthy followed the tweet with a since-deleted Instagram post directed toward Manny, who posted a video where he was lip-synching along to Meg thee Stallion and Nicki Minaj's"Hot Girl Summer" a day after Worthy posted a video to the same song in her signature traptorial style. Her Instagram post quickly went viral in the beauty community, sparking a response from Manny who claimed he'd never seen her videos and had created his video prior to hers.
To be clear, the only people suffering in this scenario are Black women. In addition to Worthy's frustration, Aina—who should be celebrating the launch of a product that the beauty industry desperately needed—is now the subject of undeserved abuse, and being antagonized by people who don't otherwise engage in her content. Manny and Patrick have since moved on and posted other content , the incident likely a footnote in their busy lives.
Since deactivating her Twitter, there's been no word on when Aina will be back on the social media platform.
