WEBVTT - Unpacking Instagram's Wedding Dress Fiasco

0:00:00.000 --> 0:00:01.320
<v Speaker 1>All right, then let's get to the bottom of this

0:00:01.320 --> 0:00:03.080
<v Speaker 1>trending report so Sissy and I can talk figure out

0:00:03.080 --> 0:00:05.800
<v Speaker 1>what it is we're trying to talk about here, go away.

0:00:05.960 --> 0:00:08.399
<v Speaker 2>Okay. So this is really big in the social media

0:00:08.440 --> 0:00:12.799
<v Speaker 2>influencer world, and these are the players. So influencer Brielle Beerman.

0:00:13.080 --> 0:00:15.079
<v Speaker 2>She also if you watch The Real Housewives, she is

0:00:15.160 --> 0:00:19.720
<v Speaker 2>Kim Zolciak's daughter, okay, and Bridget Feelong, so she is

0:00:19.920 --> 0:00:24.160
<v Speaker 2>a massive social media following under the name Acquired Style. Okay,

0:00:24.239 --> 0:00:26.640
<v Speaker 2>So those are the two players in this game. Bridget

0:00:26.720 --> 0:00:30.200
<v Speaker 2>got married in a very specific vera wang dropwaist ball

0:00:30.280 --> 0:00:34.879
<v Speaker 2>gown the very next day, okay, the next day, and

0:00:34.960 --> 0:00:39.400
<v Speaker 2>this wedding was like very all eyes on this wedding. Okay.

0:00:39.760 --> 0:00:42.919
<v Speaker 2>Brielle posted a photo of herself trying on the exact

0:00:42.960 --> 0:00:46.520
<v Speaker 2>same dress with the caption the dress I almost said

0:00:46.840 --> 0:00:51.360
<v Speaker 2>yes to. Okay. People immediately assumed that Brielle was shading

0:00:51.360 --> 0:00:54.760
<v Speaker 2>Bridget's dress, and the comments got very ugly. Brielle responded,

0:00:54.920 --> 0:00:57.480
<v Speaker 2>posting receipts proving that the video is actually filmed the

0:00:57.560 --> 0:01:01.880
<v Speaker 2>day before the wedding, before her dress even hit the internet.

0:01:02.280 --> 0:01:05.400
<v Speaker 2>But here I am thinking if you saw the dress,

0:01:05.440 --> 0:01:07.679
<v Speaker 2>and you saw that this girl just got married in

0:01:07.720 --> 0:01:11.600
<v Speaker 2>this wedding dress. Why would you post this is the

0:01:11.720 --> 0:01:14.679
<v Speaker 2>dress that you almost said yes to. It's not nice.

0:01:14.920 --> 0:01:18.520
<v Speaker 1>Comparison is the thief of joy here. I just want

0:01:18.560 --> 0:01:20.840
<v Speaker 1>to say that weddings are supposed to be about love,

0:01:23.000 --> 0:01:26.360
<v Speaker 1>not an Olympic social competition. They're not. They have become that,

0:01:26.440 --> 0:01:29.520
<v Speaker 1>and they shouldn't be. We're missing the plot. Hon Are

0:01:29.680 --> 0:01:33.560
<v Speaker 1>with a Ryan Seacrest. Replace doom scrolling with audiobooks on

0:01:33.600 --> 0:01:35.760
