I've recently been seeing some of my favorite female creators get Mirror Me PR after MGA was called out about not inviting female creators to the Mirror Me event. While I'm very happy that some female creators are finally getting the proper recognition they deserve, I can't help that MGA is doing this simply because of the call out.
Many of this female creators were never recognized in the first place by MGA, and magically MGA sends them PR. To me, I feel like MGA got a whole list of female creators and sent them PR to fix their image. MGA is known for doing crappy things in the past, so I won't be surprised by the fact they are only doing this to fix their image.
The minute this drama is gone, MGA is never gonna send some of these female creators PR. Which in my opinion is kinda crappy. Imagine finally getting PR from a brand you love and finally being noticed, only to realize that they only sent you PR because they needed to fix their image.
I honestly just want them to simply owe up to the mistake and acknowledge what they did was wrong. Sending PR to female creators is great, but you should acknowledge the reason why you were called out in the first place.
I don't think MGA will ever come out and acknowledge the situation. This will probably end up under the rug.
