Amber Rose and Blac Chyna make a statement on the red carpet

Wearing the insults on their sleeves (Picture: Matt Sayles/Invision/AP) This is how you make a statement on the red carpet.
Amber Rose and Blac Chyna both wore outfits graffitied with all the derogatory words used about women on a daily basis – words like ‘b*tch’, ‘whore’, ‘gold digger’, ‘slut’.
They wore the insults on their sleeves to raise awareness of Amber’s upcoming Slut Walk in LA on October 3, an event aimed to raise awareness of everyday slut shaming and victim-blaming in sexual assault cases.

(Picture: Jason Merritt/Getty Images) ‘It brings awareness to a lot of men and women that [slut-shaming, victim blaming, rape and sexual assault happen] every single day,’ Amber said of her Slut Walk, while speaking to Entertainment Tonight this week.

‘It has happened to me on so many different levels,’ she added. ‘I really have been through some things… I lived it. Maybe one day I’ll tell my story.

‘Until then I feel like if I can just help other women get through what they’ve been through, then that can also help me get to the next level in my life.’
