EXCLUSIVE: Dove 'fat acceptance ambassador' Zyahna Bryant - who ruined student's life over misheard statement at BLM protest - melts down and calls cops over polite interview request
Daily Mail UK ^ | September 15, 2023 | Laura Collins, Chief Investigative Reporter In Charlottesville, Virginia, For Dailymail.Com

The Black Lives Matters activist at the center of a furious backlash after Dove announced a partnership with her has complained she felt 'threatened,' and called police after a polite interview request.

DailyMail.com visited community organizer and University of Virginia student, Zyahna Bryant, 22, who ruined white student Morgan Bettinger's life when she had her canceled over words she later admitted she 'may have misheard,' Friday.

Following a calm and pleasant conversation with a woman claiming to be her sister explaining we were simply wanting to ask if Bryant would speak to the furor, contact details were exchanged.

Moments later, before DailyMail.com had a chance to depart, we received a telephone call from a man who introduced himself as Sean Lawton, her manager.

Lawton said: 'Zyahna feels threatened right now. This is now about her security.'

Dove's decision to hire the controversial Bryant as a 'fat acceptance ambassador' has seen thousands take to social media calling for a boycott of their products in what has been billed as their 'Bud Light moment' – a reference to the beer's disastrous partnership with Dylan Mulvaney.

Speaking on Friday Bryant's manager said: 'The biggest concern right now is about her security and her safety. That means this has now fallen into the domain of a legal matter which means we are unable to offer any comment at this time.'

When asked what he meant by a 'legal matter,' Lawton said. 'It means I am unable to offer a comment at the advice of legal.'

And, revealing that his client was holed up in her Charlottesville home Lawton added: 'Are you in a grey SUV? She can see you from her window.'

She may be the new face of Dove but she sure looks like a buzzard.

My college roommate had a thing for fat girls.

He was never lacking for company.

Send the company an email.

I did.

For as long as I have used their soap, I will never use it again.

Have you noticed that whenever a corporate or government official is on tv nowadays, it’s a woman? Coincidence that the world’s going to hell? Asking for a friend.

She’s a big one.

Indoors, she would only fit in a Horse Stall type of shower.

Oh, for Pete’s sake.

The only time they need to worry is if Captain Ahab shows up with a whale harpoon and a crane to carry her off.

“Why Dove?”

I have no idea. SheaMoisture is typically a soap black women use.

Rendered down, her body fat would produce an awful lot of soap.

They immediately get a call directly from the Chief of Police?

Is this massive heifer an ambassador from another country or something?

Marry, sir, she’s the kitchen wench and all grease; and I know not what use to put her to but to make a lamp of her and run from her by her own light. I warrant, her rags and the tallow in them will burn a Poland winter: if she lives till doomsday, she’ll burn a week longer than the whole world.

I have seen Dove commercials that show women with stretch marks, scars, burns, fat rolls around the stomach, the mottled skin that some blacks have, and now I guess I’ll see this one. I don’t hold it against anyone who has those physical characteristics because I am somewhat deeper than that, and because I am nowhere near being a perfect physical specimen myself. Nowhere near. I accept people for who they are, but I can’t accept what Dove contends is physically beautiful. I get that Dove wants women of all types to use their products, but weren’t they already doing that anyway?

According to Marshall Dodge, the Down East humorist:

I heard she has a flesh eating disease and doctors only give her 10 years to live.

A positive image for women everywhere:

Pride, gluttony and sloth: the perfect combination for a one way ticket to the eternal reaches at a very young age.

Sorry about that last pic. Here’s some eye wash:

Now that is what women should look like, plus she has poise, class and most importantly she’s a lady.
