Transcript

00:00:00.000 is what are beauty standards and then start here go around then second row go ahead um for me i
00:00:07.240 think you know due to the nature of my job i do singing you know i perform a lot you know in the
00:00:12.560 public eyes so i think beauty is important uh in a way that you need to be confident enough
00:00:19.460 for people to you know to see your talent eventually i mean there are different beauty
00:00:24.800 standards i'm from italy so as you probably can imagine um maybe the beauty standards over there
00:00:31.260 is just a little bit different who's someone that is the italian beauty standard is there like a
00:00:35.720 celebrity yes celebrities or you know people on team no i was just like someone you could think of
00:00:40.660 um monica bellucci monica could we put her on the screen i just want to see what she looks like
00:00:46.700 yeah it's pretty mediterranean vibe monica bellucci yeah okay it's an actress i'm gonna i'm gonna look
00:00:51.840 it up here just while he's playing it so i can see is she tall short she's tall um brown
00:00:57.980 hair you know the typical mediterranean type of vibe yeah i don't know if you consider that as a
00:01:05.680 beautiful i think she's beautiful um but um i think for i would lie if i would say like no beauty
00:01:13.340 doesn't matter at all i mean it's that's i think it's a lie to me personally speaking but at the same
00:01:20.140 time i wouldn't generalize you know for different people beauty can be different i for me for example
00:01:25.900 i try like to look nice without always being so up there like showing up like your body
00:01:31.820 all the time so that can be beautiful because you can you know let men guess what's behind yeah you're
00:01:39.240 very i like your outfit a lot it's very cute i try you know i knew that i was coming here so i was like
00:01:44.920 do you think that um british women um have you been to america too i'm just curious yes yes what
00:01:52.900 would you say um who is more put together usually when they go out american women british women or
00:01:58.300 italian women italian women yes i would guess that yes because you know we are this is why you know i
00:02:05.360 say from the beginning i come from a country where like you know being nice and looking nice is quite
00:02:11.940 important but at the same time i feel like my beauty standards are not necessarily what the modern
00:02:18.440 women they want to you know say like oh yes let's put you know boobs out everything out and that's
00:02:23.300 beautiful sexy and provocative i kind of like like to people guess more what's behind you know the
00:02:30.020 surface would you say in italy um that that like beauty standards are higher there or lower
00:02:37.640 i think that are higher higher it's more competitive you'd say yes yes definitely like from tv you know
00:02:45.200 anything you know you can see if you're not in a certain type of body shape sometimes can be i mean
00:02:51.020 it's changing it's changing but i feel like that is still quite predominant that like and what would
00:02:57.660 you say about um like promiscuous clothes is that more i'm just curious because we don't always get
00:03:03.480 people from italy on the show um so would you say that that's more frowned upon in italy or um or is
00:03:11.960 it more open there it's a warmer the thing the thing is you know with the younger generations is really
00:03:16.860 changing because they're quite more into this western world you know they're bombarded with social media
00:03:21.840 and images and everyone is trying to impress everyone so it's changing a little bit but i would say
00:03:26.700 and you know people like myself or you know other friends or acquaintances you know we like to think
00:03:33.340 that that are also part of women that still like to not impress just you know by i'm gonna be naked
00:03:40.380 tonight and i'm gonna show you know how sexy i am there is sexiness isn't being absolutely fully
00:03:45.120 covered i believe so okay um so what do you think um beauty to me it's i feel like it's within to be
00:03:53.220 honest with you but i'm also half bayesian so in the bayesian community beauty is being revealing
00:04:01.760 and like in the when the you're sorry say that again half bayesian say barbados oh be honest from
00:04:07.720 okay um so we usually are quite you know revealing and nails done hair makeup sort of thing um but yeah
00:04:18.060 as i said beauty to me is is within okay yeah and you can't tell if one girl is more attractive than
00:04:23.660 the other it all looks the same um but then that goes by preference i can say well this person looks
00:04:32.380 really good and but then again this yeah it goes by it's preference like i might think this person
00:04:39.500 doesn't look so good um where to others someone else they might look really good you don't think
00:04:46.220 there's general beauty at all like you think it's different for every person or do you think that
00:04:51.500 in general we can kind of tell who's the most attractive and who's the least attractive
00:04:55.980 to society yeah but who's society to our society yeah but when you say society like who would who is
00:05:03.900 society um well people in the uk okay so you would say that people can tell who's more attractive and
00:05:10.300 less attractive um because like that's when you say society it's people right yeah it's people it's
00:05:17.180 people in the uk but i think it's different all over as i said like in barbados they would say rihanna
00:05:22.700 is what you call um you know beauty um attraction she's you know she's she's very pretty i mean i think
00:05:29.580 they'd say that in america too they love it we love rihanna she's beautiful everywhere come on
00:05:37.660 yeah but you know like over here is she not beautiful somewhere sorry where is rihanna not hot
00:05:47.420 you know like i feel like there's like preferences like some people like might think one celebrity's
00:05:52.620 hotter than the other but they're all hot yeah you know unless you're blind you can tell so that's why
00:05:57.340 i just never understand what people say they're all hot i like if i look i if i look at beyonce i
00:06:02.060 don't think she's in comparison to um you know to rihanna i think rihanna is more beautiful to me
00:06:08.700 than beyonce so i mean just being honest my opinion depends when i don't know because
00:06:18.860 beyonce is a bit older isn't she yeah but it doesn't matter about that i think my preference is
00:06:25.500 rihanna i have a beyonce okay what do you think what are beauty standards like she said it's
00:06:31.260 within you i'm very big on that i do not get that within yeah like we're not blind we're not blind
00:06:40.700 you could find someone so attractive but they have the most shittiest personality yeah but i'm just
00:06:47.020 i'm just talking physical like okay they're ugly after even even if beyonce came in you might say
00:06:52.460 rihanna's hotter but beyonce's still hot nobody can deny that beyonce's hot yeah yeah she's pretty
00:06:57.820 but like everyone has their own preferences so who you might think's good looking i might think he's
00:07:03.740 definitely not what about men do you think men look at women and say the same thing that beauty comes
00:07:09.420 from within i would like to say so but i feel like the ones that have been hurt maybe they start looking
00:07:18.460 at beauty within maybe the ones that have been hurt you know that's when you start hearing what is it
00:07:25.580 what's the saying they say be beyond the eyes or something like that they say right yeah then you
00:07:29.980 start hearing that but you would say in general men do look at beauty to an extent i definitely
00:07:37.900 sometimes don't think men look at anything but oh you know just what they can have okay so um when we
00:07:45.580 talk about beauty standards it's all about to you it's all about what comes from within yeah nothing
00:07:50.300 physical my background's indian so like she picked up her she's beijian i'm indian and we pretty much
00:07:57.580 cover ourselves back home what does that have to do with the beauty standards so that comes within because
00:08:03.420 we're not here we're quite covered up to be fair so we look at beauty like they very well i'm from a
00:08:09.180 village so oh yeah so they don't wear makeup they they just literally they my mom's always said this
00:08:15.580 to me what part of india are you from punjab where is that that's like in a border right next to pakistan
00:08:21.580 so it's closer to pakistan side so i miss i would say south india okay because i went to um abu dhabi
00:08:27.660 or not not sorry not abu dhabi sorry sorry hydrabat hydrabat where's that that's in india yeah india's
00:08:34.940 really big yeah i think it's south i think i don't know it was a long time ago i i barely can
00:08:40.140 remember the name obviously so it's a bit different because we're from village and we just like we
00:08:47.180 women always do their hair but they're very rarely wear makeup they're very rarely wear
00:08:52.300 yeah anything really they're just their clothes don't have to have their hair done so that's where
00:08:56.620 my grandparents are from so when i look at that and i'm like b is from within
00:09:01.100 so that's what i mean when i say that uh what do you think beauty standards um i mean i kind of have
00:09:08.300 to disagree with the ladies to my left because i feel like it's evident um i feel like everybody
00:09:14.140 knows who like a beautiful person is i feel like if a woman work walks in the room you'll know that
00:09:20.060 a woman will be classified as beautiful if she has her nails done her hair's done her eyelashes her
00:09:24.460 eyebrows everything is straight everything is put together um i feel like if another woman was to walk
00:09:28.860 in and she doesn't have that i won't i don't feel like people won't say she's beautiful i just feel
00:09:32.780 like people will be more attracted and will look um to the woman who has everything done first
00:09:38.620 initially do you know what i mean so i feel like um and to ask your question about men i feel like
00:09:43.500 men that's the first thing they look at beauty before they look at anything else um and yeah i definitely
00:09:49.100 feel like there is a high beauty standard in the uk um yeah that's my opinion okay what do you think
00:09:55.340 what are beauty standards for me i okay i'm gonna say that it does come from within however i'd be
00:10:02.540 lying if i would say that you don't look at beauty like you can tell in the uk but like who is attractive
00:10:09.740 and who isn't you just know that so to say that it comes from within i think yes it's that's the
00:10:15.980 general statement for anyone to make because nobody wants to sound like oh that's they're being shallow
00:10:20.300 but realistically speaking the majority of society are shallow you do look at people and what they
00:10:26.300 look like yeah okay so you would say it's based on looks yeah what what metrics would you use to
00:10:32.700 measure someone's beauty um for me personally um is it men or women oh women women um it would for me i
00:10:43.900 look at a woman's if i can strip back everything in terms of like the makeup the hair the the nails
00:10:49.980 and to me i can see her as beautiful then she's beautiful but that's just me again my preference
00:10:56.140 okay uh what do you think troy what are beauty standards i mean look i think it's entirely physical
00:11:02.700 to be honest i don't want to sound cynical here but i think that's what people look at i think it's nice
00:11:07.500 to say it's from within and there's yeah sure i mean there's some truth in that but i think let's let's
00:11:11.820 let's be let's be real the dating marketplace it's a kind of a jungle out there right what are
00:11:16.300 people looking at they're looking at the aesthetics right they're looking at the surface now that's not
00:11:19.980 to say that you meet somebody and maybe they have a really obnoxious personality and you think actually
00:11:26.380 i'm put off from that or they've got something about them that's really great and you guys click
00:11:30.700 and that adds something to it 100 that's that's definitely true but let's let's be honest right it's
00:11:34.700 a surface level thing there are there are aesthetic standards and that's what people mean when they're
00:11:39.740 talking about beauty i don't think the standards are particularly high in the uk but that's just
00:11:47.180 that's just me though guys sorry um for men as well for men as well for men as well yeah if you go to
00:11:56.780 miami you get humbled real quick well miami but also like latin america i mean eastern europe all those
00:12:03.740 places oh yeah yeah i went to a wedding in germany it was like all the girls were like literally
00:12:09.580 stunning yeah um okay what do you think yeah i do agree i feel like it is based on how a woman looks
00:12:17.980 i feel like as she mentioned if a woman's got her nails done hair done you've got yourself together men
00:12:23.260 do like that it is you know quite obvious as well a man especially a regular man in the uk i don't feel
00:12:29.260 like they would go for just a basic looking woman yeah they would go for a woman who's you know got
00:12:35.500 themselves put together got their nails done they look good and yeah i don't really agree when they
00:12:41.820 said that it's within it's just my opinion anyways i feel like if someone looks good then that's what
00:12:46.700 attracts attracts men as well yeah what do you think um i agree to an extent with who with these
00:12:59.020 i definitely feel as though beauty is an attraction i feel like if someone's attracted to you they're
00:13:04.220 gonna think you're beautiful regardless however i do not agree that um just because you're well done up
00:13:11.020 that then implicates that you're beautiful you know i don't have no makeup on now i'm very much
00:13:17.740 beautiful um i don't need makeup to define my beauty um i think um yeah i don't need makeup to find my
00:13:25.340 beauty however you know i do definitely feel like you have to be attracted to someone in order for you
00:13:31.980 to think that they are beautiful as many of you know i was just banned on tick tock and we are
