He is so authentic and it applies to how he does his work as well. It's wild to think about, as someone whose studied and worked in business since the age of 18, that putting your passion first is possible. It feels so risky. Which is why balancing personal identity and public brand has been such a big question mark for me. But basically, what Christian Louboutin is showing, is that public brand comes from personal identity. No overthinking involved.

Good interview, but very little to do with the conversation on not losing yourself behind the brand

I am African, yet I am white...I have over 400 years of African ancestors Africa has every shade under the sun, not just the colour of dark brown and black

@biutifulmediauk8856 2 года назад

By your last name I can assume your South African and if you roll back the clock 400 years slavery was a thing you can have history in a place and still not belong there your ancestors came to a land they had no right to and claimed it as their own because they felt they were morally superior and conquered it by force also saying that Africa had all shades means nothing most white peoples on the continent are descendants of slavers and people who make people suffer

@RedditSuggests Год назад

Missed the point completely. Colour is only an indicator of his lineage, not the reason why he’s African, which is what made him feel “different” in a predominately white-looking household and in his environment.

@nessrach6207 9 месяцев назад

White people are not indigenous to Africa, so WE universally fail to even understand your point.

I was expecting an interview but it was a HR video article.

He is such a humble down to earth creative man. But, the lady that is interviewing has to shift into a negative racist context conversation - I think people are collectively going through some sort of breakdown the need to TELL, their truth about racist or suffering “ Generational Traumas” OMG why do I need to relieve or exult the traumas or my ancestors, instead of being an eternal VICTIM - Two things my ancestors taught me “ No one can offend you without your permission!” Also choose to celebrate with Joy those who brought you up, that paved the way with their energy. I CAN’T STAND this political agenda I need to show weakness to be accepted, being strong and authentic, that is now an act of rebellion.

He is Egyptian

@Sallyy150 4 месяца назад

Egyptians have such a rich history of many layers, one of them is the Arabic layer, that doesn’t make Egyptians Arabs. It is painful to equate the 1st and most great civilization on Earth with a small nomadic group.

@JuanPabloPenaRosas 7 месяцев назад

I love the shoes he is wearing but cannot find them in my size 46 in Geneva… they are beautiful… Christian, would you make them for me? My birthday is 20 November. They say I am also from Egypt but I am Venezuelan but from unknown background (bastard side)…

@OrganicMachoCapitalist Месяц назад

This interviewer does a very bad job. She doesnt really think, she doesnt really listen, she floats in her own fantasy world. And the guy is super humble and very interesting....

@ALICIA-xr4wx Год назад

Lady, this is an interview, not a college cultural thesis! Who picked her?

@kevinm8431 Год назад

😅

@JB09_ Год назад

Yes 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 excellent comment.

@Palestinian_holocaust Год назад

She is very much of a CULTURAL MARXIST and vomiting black supremacy

@victoriawindsor8023 2 месяца назад

What is she talking about while saying it's only recently that Black people in the UK have referred to themselves as Black. Caribbean people in the UK have always referred to themselves as "Black". I have Black friends and they have always said that they are Black. She was not even born in the UK (You can tell by her accent). She needs to stop talking as if she knows black british culture because she clearly does not know anything. she came to the UK the other day and now she thinks that she is the spoke's for black british people. Black Africans never used to refer to themselves as Black but Black Caribbeans have always referred to themselves as Black. These are two different sets of people. She needs to get her facts right before she makes silly comments again!
