Disney Princesses in Reality

.
How about Rapunzel in the grocery store with a cart full of shampoo and holding a single bottle and looking at the price tag with a look of exasperation.

Hahaha, or even holding a calculator in the other hand.

I'm not really a fan of this "art". although I will also say as a guy...the princess Jasmine War Queen was pretty hot...and i'm done.

Agreed!

As far as I can tell these aren't supposed to be like some social commentary or anything...their just slightly dark humorous looks at these characters...lighten up.

Social commentary is exactly what they are. Are you kidding?

If you want to enjoy and truly interesting variation on a them, view the Annie
Leibovitz dream portrait series. This stuff is trash!

From what the photographer wrote, she seemed to think she was making some profound statements here. I agree that they work better as dark humor...but I don't think that was the intent.

Got another one

Cinderella at a gas station filling up her minivan

Photoshop the shoot so the minivan is pumpin orange.

Maybe even put a little stem on the roof.

:lol: Good one!

I think at the end of the day, this is taken too far.
Princesses, along with Princes and Queens and Kings (although real) are mostly seen as people of Fantasy, especially by children.
Just let them enjoy it, have fun, read the fairytales and dress up as Cinderella without 'reality' raining on their parades.

Interesting concept. Mediocre execution.

So we had a very nasty thread about the whole weight issue a while ago. I'm waiting for someone to say something about Little Red. Or should anyone complain about the stereotyping of Jasmine - I'll bet I could find a group which might find that objectionable.

Yet no one seems to see that?

 

[TubaGeek]

Sheesh. I'm not sure how I feel about it, but I'm not going to start freaking out about them.
"Art" is such a subjective thing, I'm sure these pictures can mean a lot to some people.

 

[princess_dboo]

I find this weird, and I agree with some of the points made!

I think I said that about Jasimine in my original post here.

Jasmine is off fighting a war. Is that somthing that most women deal with? I know there are a lot that are in the military, and they are to be congratulated. But is it something that the majority of women deal with every day? I understand (sort of) the connection of Rapunzel loosing her hair with chemo, but what is the Jasmine connection here? Is it because Jasmine is middle eastern? Is this supposed to suggest middle eastern women are all terrorists?

As for LRR, I left that one alone on purpose

1) Becuase of the bruhaha it raised on the other thread
2) Because its not a Disney character.
3) Because someone has allready made similar comments on the original site.
