Anybody offended by curse words don't need to exist on the planet . because I have a list of things people should be offended by and don't blink an eye at.
I feel the same way!!! I have an incredibly supportive husband who has been key in my success as a scientist and now a mother. So I don't understand the constant critism towards influencer husbands. They want their partner to shine and there is NOTHING wrong with that.
@@Myaccount923 its really interesting to me that when i was younger there was a wave of feminism where like yeah women can be breadwinners and theres nothing wrong w that and from what i understand now theres pushback? does the man have to have their own career? if being a house husband works for them then whats wrong? isnt it the same as women deciding to be housewives?
@@Myaccount923 Exactly, ppl are acting like wealthy women are somehow immune to default parent syndrome even when they have "supportive" partners..I hope they are ready to pay alimony as per Jennifer Hudson, Mary J Blige, Wendy Williams etc...
Being at the top of your game and having a supportive spouse is quite frankly the dream for many people. Why does that change when the industry is social media?
@@tondaniraluswinga2590 Thank you! I don't mind these unions, but only if he is matching their success. It just seems very awkward seeing women like Jackie for example financing a whole man who really has job hopped for a while. He doesn't seem that dependable, and I think he might be jealous of her success.
@@tondaniraluswinga2590 How are you high and drive when you are the one with the money? Again, we don't view it that way when its a women doing these things. And the reason we don't is our adherence to patriarchal norms. Idk it is giving the same vibes as the gold digger conversations men have. Worried about situations beyond yall tax brackets. No matter what happens Jackie is not gonna end up in the poor house. This is rich people business. Folks can barely find two pennies to rub, but want to worry about some rich lady's husband being apart of his wife's business.
The idea of a man who supports the work that his female partner is doing, should not be a foreign concept. The fact that they're willing to do this publicly is more than most do privately. These folks are doing what works for them and means that achieving success isn't quite as hard as doing it solo.
At 40 years old and having been a single mom for the past 7 years, I finally know what it's like to have a supportive partner...it's a game changer for real.
IMO the criticism of influencer husbands is the same criticisms that people have towards stay-at-home wives and mothers. There's an assumption that because they are not face or their name isnt on the checks/pay checks that they "leeching" of the spouses and not doing any "real" work. Meanwhile, so much of that support work is essential to allow the spouse the space and ability to focus and thrive in their careers. I think this is based off of assuming that the only work that has ACTUAL value is the work that directly brings in money or the work we see and can make sense of right in front of our faces (as opposed to the behind the scenes work)
I love this - I didn't even know people were shaming them?? And especially when you understand their husband's skills and previous jobs who were like videographers/photographers, finance/accounting, business, a lot of "backend" work - wouldn't it be obvious to work for your #1 client??
im also shocked!? Jackie has said multiple times how much Dennis is contributing to their success. i wonder what could people really have to say about these men that are just minding their business???
That's what I'm saying. Black women more often than not date "supportive" men. Especially the ones at the top of their game. It seems like all we see are black women in these relationships as bread winner, lead of house, etc which is why the push for black women, specifically dsbw in more supportive roles is even a thing. I know I'm not the only black girl that grew up watching the women do everything while the guys just shuffled around and played support but still got "Kang" treatment and but that I just mean respect for their support or treated like temporarily embarrased bread winner knights who would one day awaken. And as a woman who dates "supportive" men, my biggest issue with them is the passive aggression. I just can't with a man that can throw sneak diss after sneak diss but can't have a Conversation. They tirelessly revert to passive aggression. And I can't with passive aggression in an intimate partner. I've never not dated the educated "lame", "supportive", more chill guy. And honestly, I'm beginning to question my habits... maybe I just need to change the type of "supportive" guy I date. Idk. But this looks like fake news lol
I don't think it's that though. What the detractors seem to be saying is that it may backfire on the influencers, if a man doesn't have his own thing going on. It's not the same the other way round.
I think the discussion is stemming from people who either never experienced a supportive partner or they envy these creators bc there is no way someone can tell me that doing life with a supportive partner; married or not is not significantly better than figuring it out on your own.
It IS better, absolutely. But it's important for the man to have his own thing going on as well. I think that their concern is if the supportive guy will eventually feel emasculated and bail out.
Note how women give men so much credit for their work and acknowledge their collaboration vs the conversation when couples divorce and men are like why would you get 30,40,50%? Um bc she was supporting your work by doing all the stuff you would’ve had to pay for otherwise
I can't like your comment enough. Whenever a male celebrity gets divorced, then it's the "goldigger" wife wanting alimony. None of these husbands will ever go through the physical pain of having children either.
I've longed believed this, even as a feminist. When I was married my income accelerated and I had more time for leisure (he just wasn't emotionally available). Get you the right partner and your life can skyrocket professionally, financially, and socially!
that’s definitely a part of feminism. women only pairing with partners who add to their lives & who don’t ruin or stunt the woman’s careers & dreams. you’re absolutely right!
AGREED! Tabitha Brown's husband is so supportive of her. Takes care of home while she is currently on her book tour. These folks don't know nothing about that kind of loyalty or a man being an actual asset to a woman and not the other way around😩. I, personally, would love a stay-at-home husband lol
First of all YASSSS to this look. Secondly, I feel very much the same. I've been reflecting on what I've accomplished this year and know that while I cou'dve gotten it done alone, it would not been nearly as well done or stressfree as having a supportive partner. I have a partner who can build/craft things and is an audio engineer. We've been working on making custom music for my vlogs/future film pieces. He is also the delivery man for my art peices/can pick up the slack when I am busy. Even the small things like having someone to make coffee in the morning or cook for us when I am too busy. So much gratitude for this partnership.
Kim, you’re so right about people still holding onto to traditional ideas. These men are supposed “in the shadow” of their wives. And yet this has been the story for many women: Melinda Gates, Pauletta Washington (Denzel’s wife), etc. it’s okay for a woman to be a star 🌟
I get what you mean about the traditional ideas 💡 BUT trust me; you want to be the star and you DEFINITELY do NOT want your husband to just be your FULL-TIME help. He has to have ANOTHER Full-Time career separate from being “the assistant” of you. Ask Wendy Williams, B Smith, Mary J Blige, Adele… etc… 🤷🏾♀️
@@Melanated483 They have failed marriages and that happens to women who marry men who make less than them or the same as them. Men who want to cheat on or mistreat their wives will, regardless of anything else.
AN ACTIVELY SUPPORTIVE PARTNER IS SO VALUABLE ...its like being a kid and having a parent who is invested in your dream ...you cant even quanitify how vaubale that is
I think this may be a dicey road. We often wonder why do female celebs make their husbands their managers yet the male celebs don't make their wives their managers. And it usually ends up getting messy when they split up like Wendy williams, Mary j Blige, Shania Twain, Kelly Clarkson etc.
@@KimberlyNicoleFoster89 yes you didn't however as a content creator and having your husband/boyfriend being in charge of taking your pictures, editing videos or whatever critical pieces are needed for your business can be very dicey like a celebrity choosing to make their partner their manager.
@@Andyshotfries no. big influencers have managers. photographers and editors do not occupy the same role as a manager. I think a lot of this conversation hinges on people not understanding how the business of influencing works.
All of this supportive husband stuff sounds good until divorce time. Then that's when you realize he wasn't really a supportive husband after all. He was your business partner and expects to be compensated for services rendered. Just ask Wendy and Mary. I think a man should have his own thing. He should not have to attach himself to his wife business. However if women want to use their husband in this capacity please be aware that you are altering the dynamic of your relationship.
Whew! This is SO true for anybody in any kind of internet-centred entertainment. I watched this 4 part mini series called 'Adult Material' about a porn star trying to balance family issues with her work and her husband was WORKING. Man was running her subscriber page, keeping track of her filming days, taking photos for the sites, managing the money AND he was running the home, cooking, cleaning and taking care of their kids.
I absolutely think it’s important to appreciate how vital a supportive partner is in this realm of work. It is often dismissed as nothing when in actuality takes a lot of time, patience, and effort on the partner’s part. It’s not for the weak.
Oh my goodness! Having a supportive husband has been integral to my growth. I started a business last year, and my husband has stepped up in all areas. He is an attorney, but he became the camera guy, packaging guy, social media guy, manager, administrator, creative director and therapist. It is an honor to work alongside him.
The nice thing is some of these influencers have their husbands on salary whereas some men don’t believe in paying a supportive housewife/SAHM for her role because it’s ‘idleness’
I mean if you wanna do a full episode on discussing this with a guest I’ll hop on and throw my two cents in 🙃 because I didn’t even know this was an issue?!
I think its rooted in the fact social media influencer make a lot of money and i personally have heard women shame women for dating men that make less them
Just make sure they’re paid because I’ve seen how things go left when the break-up happens and now it’s a court issue. I know it’s a little different because it’s the music industry, but Mary J Blige is a prime example
I'm here for this discourse. I'm nowhere in the same stratosphere as any of the ladies you mentioned but having a husband who is supportive and is more than happy to do the background work so I can shine out front it's *chefs kiss*
Yes! I am so happy to see Jared taking some time to focus on his music and own career because I have SEEN over the years how much he has poured into her business and brand in learning the skills that have helped it become so successful. It’s their business now but it wasn’t in the beginning for many years when he was putting all that work in. Shout out to social media husbands! They are a perfect example of men who have found a way to make themselves needed and valuable. I hope they all find ways to balance their own identities with their spouses 😌💙
The thing that I find interesting too is the both being influencers thing. And one person taking off and the other not sure much. That's real work to maintain a supportive relationship through that
It does seem that prominent women (over) praise their husbands publicly in a way that men don't feel the need to do with their wives. I guess it's to build the husband's ego for playing a more "feminine" role in the relationship/partnership. The criticism seems unwarranted, but I think it's motivated by fear that the husband may be a "free rider" on one hand or may get jealous and have an affair/file for divorce on the other.
I had the same thoughts on this. Women in positions of prominence carry the burden of having to acknowledge their partners' contributions to their success as if it's this otherworldly sacrifice. It also serves to soften or humanize their image, because people are still largely uncomfortable with women achieving success by their own merits. Men in the same position don't shoulder such expectatiins because unpaid labor is part of the deal and supposedly the reward itself.
(Im on my bfs account dont mind the name) reminds me if this thing that went viral where a man(husband + father of 4) layed out all his reasons for his succes and how he was able to get things done while neglecting to mention the biggest reasons he was able to do the things he could which was because he had a wife doing a big chunk of the important things. People ate him up in the comments for it and than he sheepishly decided that it might be a good idea to also give credit to his wife. Very funny but also sad 😂
@@sebastiaanv Yes, men rarely feel the need to credit their partner. The work, the effort is invisible. But maybe that's changing now. I'm pleased to hear that he got roasted in the comments.
Because my hubbo has the same artistic values, education & imagination (some what); it's very easy to bounce ideas off of him & to get advice from him. American VS Brazilian Artistry creates a very strong dynamic of always having somebody to bounce ideas off of. On that note, I chose right; cause whenever I want to appear in a video, he'll guide me. Whenever he needs a reminder of organization, he'll go view one of my videos for the media arts & animation background I have. He's helped me evolve a lot.
Kim , keep this hair !!! 😍😍 You look amazing ! And yes, the supportive husband is a blessing ! I’m grateful for a hubby who doesn’t like the limelight because when I drop this baby, we documenting everything online .😂
Another clear example of this is Noorie Ana and her fiancé Trieu. The quality of her campaigns and photos would cost her a petty penny if he wasn't apart of the machine behind them. Plus, working with someone who knows your expectations and loves you seems to make the work easier
I love this rant lol. I especially love this look. That color is poppin' on you. The hair yess 😍 🔥 🔥 🔥. Beautiful! More of these rants & quick chats por favor y si vous plait
Ms.Foster, this pretty purple is your color! Ma'am, you look stunning! 😍 This discussion about husband's is crazy to me. I love that they have supportive partners.
Facts Kim! Folks always have something to say about things they know nothing about. Social media is a bag. If someone’s partner is their photographer, editor, whatever, that’s a valuable $$$ skill - like you said. And it’s not just a skill that they get to only use to help their influencer partners…they can also use the skills to get a bag $$$ for themselves. Thinking about Court Williams and her husband Brian. She’s the influencer, and he’s the photographer for her and for other people. It makes sense. It works. Everyone gets paid. Everyone wins. I had no clue people were in their feelings about this…
💕 I LOVE to see a supportive partner to a successful woman in any and every industry. It's needed women do it all the time. It's sweet when men do it. Fan her flame 🔥 let her shine.
Angela Mishelle and Fumi Desalu- Vold both have amazing social media husbands! Angela lovingly refers the refers to her husband as “production” in between takes! You’re right someone Hass to be a star and these husbands happily support their wives being the star
Hmmm, disagree, disagree, disagree. We all want supportive partners no matter what. That's a given requirement but support while having your shit going on. The reality is far from the social media likes and posts. Most women dont want a man who's laying under them 24/7 in the bedroom, in business, in making money, moves, decisions etc. That shit will turn the woman masculine real quick and its hard to respect a man without a backbone. It gets old and suffocating. Down the road, men become disgruntled then they start talking about feeling emasculated by their women...well, unless you married a very feminine man and you're ok with that then that's different. Support your successful wife, invest in her. Take a few pics sometimes, let her bounce her ideas off you, look out for her and protect her but have your own goals and purpose as man. Well, if your careers intertwin and mesh, you can still find a way to work together without being her background back up dancer or lapdog. Maybe im different but hey, to each their own.
Its so bad now that in these social media relationships, the woman makes all the money, pays for everything even moves the husband into her home while he just does dishes, cleans the house and does laundry 😑. He becomes some sort of errands boy who waits around for his wife to give him directions and an allowance! The husband may not make as much as his wife and its okay but he needs to have his own shit going on where he can wear his pants and lead in that. Smh but again, to each their own but be careful what you wish for
I would literally marry someone for this service! People don’t know how value an in house content team is. A person to shoot my best angles, make me look good, and edit and set up! So go me up we getting married tomorrow
It's not just a "supportive" spouse that's important, but a spouse/partner who recognizes the earning potential and becomes part of the business. That's why many of these CZcamsrs who've done this, like Noorie Ana and the ones you've mentioned, are earning more than $ 1 million a year. The partners put their brains before their egos. There have been other successful CZcamsrs who've actually broken up, even divorced, after becoming successful.
I also wonder if there’s something racial around this or are folks critiquing all women who do this. I also think about Hallese and Maya, also two Black women who are center stage, but their husbands help a lot.
i mean, we have SO many (_TOO_ many) examples of a bad spouse derailing their partner's career, so it stands to reason having a supportive, loving, caring, and empathetic spouse willing to lend a real hand (none of this weaponized incompetence BS) is always an asset? how's this a controversial take?? sounds pretty reasonable to me.

Men in the same position don't shoulder such expectatiins because unpaid labor is part of the deal and supposedly the reward itself.
(Im on my bfs account dont mind the name) reminds me if this thing that went viral where a man(husband + father of 4) layed out all his reasons for his succes and how he was able to get things done while neglecting to mention the biggest reasons he was able to do the things he could which was because he had a wife doing a big chunk of the important things. People ate him up in the comments for it and than he sheepishly decided that it might be a good idea to also give credit to his wife. Very funny but also sad 😂
@@sebastiaanv Yes, men rarely feel the need to credit their partner. The work, the effort is invisible. But maybe that's changing now. I'm pleased to hear that he got roasted in the comments.
Thank you for sharing this. It's really appreciated.
Because my hubbo has the same artistic values, education & imagination (some what); it's very easy to bounce ideas off of him & to get advice from him. American VS Brazilian Artistry creates a very strong dynamic of always having somebody to bounce ideas off of. On that note, I chose right; cause whenever I want to appear in a video, he'll guide me. Whenever he needs a reminder of organization, he'll go view one of my videos for the media arts & animation background I have. He's helped me evolve a lot.
Kim , keep this hair !!! 😍😍
You look amazing !
And yes, the supportive husband is a blessing ! I’m grateful for a hubby who doesn’t like the limelight because when I drop this baby, we documenting everything online .😂
Yes. Loving the hair😍
Another clear example of this is Noorie Ana and her fiancé Trieu. The quality of her campaigns and photos would cost her a petty penny if he wasn't apart of the machine behind them. Plus, working with someone who knows your expectations and loves you seems to make the work easier
"You don't need a man, you need a champion" shoutout to the supportive partners
Dennis is a king! He loves Jackie to the moon and back
He’s a fiancé who eats well bc of her.
Jackie was a queen before meeting him.
You believe that?

Amen
Kimberlyyyyy you are looking tooo good in this video sis😍👀

Facts Kim! Folks always have something to say about things they know nothing about. Social media is a bag. If someone’s partner is their photographer, editor, whatever, that’s a valuable $$$ skill - like you said. And it’s not just a skill that they get to only use to help their influencer partners…they can also use the skills to get a bag $$$ for themselves. Thinking about Court Williams and her husband Brian. She’s the influencer, and he’s the photographer for her and for other people. It makes sense. It works. Everyone gets paid. Everyone wins. I had no clue people were in their feelings about this…
💕 I LOVE to see a supportive partner to a successful woman in any and every industry. It's needed women do it all the time. It's sweet when men do it. Fan her flame 🔥 let her shine.
Love your blouse! So cute!
You look GORGEOUS
The culture of consumerism has removed our curiosity, we don't care how shit gets built.
Angela Mishelle and Fumi Desalu- Vold both have amazing social media husbands! Angela lovingly refers the refers to her husband as “production” in between takes! You’re right someone Hass to be a star and these husbands happily support their wives being the star
Side note your hair is slaying!
Jared - has his very own pod. His Libra ass LOVES what he does. Who hatin?
OKAY I HAD ENOUGH!!! YOUR HAIR IS BEAUTIFUL AND I NEED THE DETAILS 😩😩 (please if you don't mind lol❤)
Kim if you ever need any graphic design work let me know . We ❤ you !!!
Girl preach. Someone has to be the star and I would prefer it to be me LOL
Social media husbands ARE TOP TIER!!!!!!!!
You look AMAZING ❤
I agree
Link the influencers!😊
Kim, "they don't get because they ain't got".
Super cute top!
I'm a firm believer that because of her husbands support Ketanji Brown Jackson is now a member of the Supreme Court. A good man is a gift!
Hmmm, disagree, disagree, disagree. We all want supportive partners no matter what. That's a given requirement but support while having your shit going on. The reality is far from the social media likes and posts. Most women dont want a man who's laying under them 24/7 in the bedroom, in business, in making money, moves, decisions etc. That shit will turn the woman masculine real quick and its hard to respect a man without a backbone. It gets old and suffocating. Down the road, men become disgruntled then they start talking about feeling emasculated by their women...well, unless you married a very feminine man and you're ok with that then that's different. Support your successful wife, invest in her. Take a few pics sometimes, let her bounce her ideas off you, look out for her and protect her but have your own goals and purpose as man. Well, if your careers intertwin and mesh, you can still find a way to work together without being her background back up dancer or lapdog. Maybe im different but hey, to each their own.
Its so bad now that in these social media relationships, the woman makes all the money, pays for everything even moves the husband into her home while he just does dishes, cleans the house and does laundry 😑. He becomes some sort of errands boy who waits around for his wife to give him directions and an allowance! The husband may not make as much as his wife and its okay but he needs to have his own shit going on where he can wear his pants and lead in that. Smh but again, to each their own but be careful what you wish for
Preach.
Fuck this was a good episode. Damn I gotta become member
I would literally marry someone for this service! People don’t know how value an in house content team is. A person to shoot my best angles, make me look good, and edit and set up! So go me up we getting married tomorrow
“AND WE GET TO FUCKKK” 🤣😂🤣😂
Whewwww 😅😅😅😅 Would love some help
KIMMMMM you look great 😍💕
Denis is a long term fiancé- not a husband.
Ya think so? Hmm lol
Jackie wants to keep her bag to herself lol
@@jbell7105 I think so too, smart lady.
You’re look is so pretty 😍 😍😍😍
It's not just a "supportive" spouse that's important, but a spouse/partner who recognizes the earning potential and becomes part of the business. That's why many of these CZcamsrs who've done this, like Noorie Ana and the ones you've mentioned, are earning more than $ 1 million a year. The partners put their brains before their egos.
There have been other successful CZcamsrs who've actually broken up, even divorced, after becoming successful.
i love this hair. can someone tell me if she bought this hair like this or u have to curl it urself???
We here
I also wonder if there’s something racial around this or are folks critiquing all women who do this. I also think about Hallese and Maya, also two Black women who are center stage, but their husbands help a lot.
i mean, we have SO many (_TOO_ many) examples of a bad spouse derailing their partner's career, so it stands to reason having a supportive, loving, caring, and empathetic spouse willing to lend a real hand (none of this weaponized incompetence BS) is always an asset? how's this a controversial take?? sounds pretty reasonable to me.
