A woman has slammed Universal Studios for telling her to cover up after she wore a crop top while at the theme park – and says it’s because her naturally large breasts make people “uncomfortable”.
Whitney Paige Venable, 26, lives in Florida, where she visited the theme park in Orlando and was shocked at how she was treated by staff.
The model, who has previously suffered discrimination for her curvy shape, claims that an employee informed her that she would have to cover up her cleavage if she wanted to be let into the park.
At the time of the incident, which took place in June 2021 but has only come to light this week, Whitney wore a white crop top and mint green shorts – and says many other women were wearing similar outfits.
“I felt humiliated and embarrassed,” Whitney, who has 1.6 million followers on Instagram (@whitneypaige.tv) told Jam Press.
“I was told I had to change my top to be able to enter. I think it’s because I have naturally big breasts and it makes people uncomfortable but at far as I know my clothing wasn’t against the rules.
“I feel like I was discriminated against because of the size of my breasts.
“I noticed other people staring and I felt really embarrassed. It was humiliating.”
In a video shared with Jam Press, Whitney can be on her way into Universal Studios with a friend, with the pair looking excited for their day out.
Moments later, their happy mood is crushed as a second video shows them standing at the entrance to the park, waiting to be let in as Whitney is then reportedly told her outfit is “inappropriate”.
“So, I guess my top is inappropriate for Universal, we’re having a problem right now,” she can be heard saying, before panning the camera towards the staff members, who are wearing face coverings.
In a follow-up video, Whitney, who has been turned away at the entrance, says: “So apparently I have to go change into a more appropriate top even though I’ve seen a lot of people here in sports bra-looking tops.”
Speaking about the incident, the model said: “I felt like I was being targeted and it was the summer so it was hot, I didn’t really understand [the issue] but having natural large breast brings attention.
“I ended up putting on another top over the sports bra, my friend had another top in the car.
“But I ended up taking it off later on in the park because it was hot and ugly
and the fact I was judged really pi**ed me off.
“Smaller women can wear whatever they want – having big breasts however gets sexualised.”
Jam Press has contacted Universal Studios for comment.
This isn’t the first time the model has hit the headlines due to her looks.
Last year, Whitney claims she was banned on Twitter for being “too hot” with people reporting her saucy snaps because they are “jealous” of her beauty.
“One day, I changed my cover photo to an innocent shot of me showing off my figure – but I was wearing underwear,” she told Jam Press at the time.
“And suddenly, my account was banned.
“It made me feel discriminated against because there are far worse pictures on Twitter.
“Some of them look like actual p*rn showing off really graphic angles.
“I’m sure that if I wasn’t so good-looking the photo would have stayed up.
“I firmly believe Twitter deleted my account because I’m too hot and jealous people who aren’t as attractive complained or said I was promoting sexual activity.
“It’s not fair.”
