AceShowbiz - Olivia Culpo was forced to defend herself once again amid criticism surrounding her wedding. Having been dubbed a "pick-me girl" by social media influencers, the model was quick to speak up after she was shamed for choosing simple makeup.
On Tuesday, July 2, Jessica Weslie Arena said in a TikTok video that she got "pick-me vibes" after reading Olivia's interview with Vogue about her nuptials. According to the outlet, the new bride wasn't wearing mascara, lip liner or eyebrow makeup, Vogue reported.
"I never felt more beautiful than when I was in my ceremony dress and under my veil," the 32-year-old told beauty the magazine. "I really wanted the simplicity of each component to harmonize perfectly."
Now in the video, Jessica argued that Vogue should point out that what Olivia wasn't wearing gave her "weird" vibes. Upon learning of the criticism, Olivia clapped back in the comments section, "It was an interview... they asked me what my makeup was.........." she wrote.
Olivia previously got called out by stylist Kennedy Bingham for her choice of a conservative wedding dress. Kennedy described her Dolce & Gabbana gown as "nothing" and "the absence of personality."
Olivia responded by slamming Kennedy's comments as "evil." She defended her choice of a modest dress, explaining that she she “didn't want it to exude sex in any way, shape or form."
Olivia's husband Christian McCaffrey also took to social media to support her, calling Kennedy's post "evil" and expressing hope that she would find peace and joy in her own life. However, the stylist responded by accusing the NFL star of promoting "patriarchal" views and defending Dolce & Gabbana's history of homophobic and fatphobic comments.
In the end, Olivia remained unmoved by the criticism, saying that her dress was "everything I ever wanted and more." She also showcased a more revealing outfit for her after-party, demonstrating that her bridal fashion choices reflected the different aspects of her personality.
