QUICK FACTS:
- Disney is once again being condemned for exposing children to the woke agenda after a video emerged showing a man in a dress and makeup.
- The video was originally posted by influencer and mother Kourtni Farber, garnering almost 7 million views on TikTok.
- Farber did not comment on the employee’s attire, but commended Disneyland workers for offering her daughter a good experience at the attraction.
- The video shows a mustached man working at Disneyland’s Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique and welcoming a young girl.
- “So, my name is Nick, I am one of the Fairy Godmother’s Apprentices,” the man in purple and blue eyeshadow says.
- “I’m here to shop you around and make all your selections for the day,” the employee continues.
- The Bibbidy Bobbidi Boutique offers children “magical makeovers for royalty-in-training,” including “elegant princesses” and “shining knights.”
REACTIONS TO THE VIDEO:
- “What’s particularly interesting about this is how intentional it is. This is a dude with a mustache in a dress. Not a ‘trans’ person. Think how many real girls want that job at Disney and they gave it to him for a reason…,” said host of “The Rubin Report” Dave Rubin.
- Trump lawyer Jenna Ellis tweeted that the situation is “disgusting and wrong. I remember when the ‘Disney Look’ didn’t even let women wear certain nail polish colors. Now THIS?!”
BACKGROUND:
