The portrayal of Lucy Liu for Detour Magazine in 2000 is a glaring example of how the media continues to perpetuate stereotypes rather than celebrate diversity. It's infuriating to see such a talented actress reduced to mere visuals, lost amidst the shallow representations that dominate the industry. The photography might have been trendy, but it completely overlooks the depth and complexity of Liu's talent. Why can't we break free from the chains of outdated norms and truly showcase individuals for their abilities rather than their appearances? The media's obsession with surface-level aesthetics is a disservice to both the artists and the audience. #LucyLiu #DetourMagazine #MediaCritique #DiversityInMedia #RepresentationMatters
