Addressing the Article About Me.

Legit all you said was you were shocked it was a lower cost. I would've taken that as you were expecting to pay MORE! This person took it SOO out of context

[harperrroth]

So sorry this happened to you, seriously baffling how heartless people can be. Aphrodite is an amazing song though regardless of this whole music video business.

this is so frustrating!! i am a teenage artist, who hasnt worked with any big corporations yet. so i dont have much experience in that field- but ai has ruined so many peoples lives, especially for artists! stay safe <3

[Yaemiilk]

It sucks that recently more so than ever the art community is being taken over by ai scammers :, ) anyways you look absolutely gorgeous!!

[iammegan]

That is truly some reddit level reading comprehension to jump from “omg such quality at this price” to “I dont pay artists”

Truly a philosopher

People like to create drama out of nothing for talented people they don’t like. I’m so sorry you have to go through this and I’m sorry that people are attacking you for it

[GayPanda-insd]

I hope you get through this Jessie! True supporters are understanding ❤

[ehmwtmn]

I saw those reddit comments and thought they also were being intentionally obtuse. That person seems to have deleted the comment I think, so please don't pay attention to the couple people who don't get it. It's a crazy world out here lmao

[someonesomehow]

heyy your last short was the most relatable thing ever 😭

[fernharrypottercrazy]

How do people misinterpret that?? It’s the same way that you’d go to a store, pick something up, and be surprised the price was lower than you expected for it! What, are we going to tell people they just don’t want to pay the creators of that product? IT MAKES NO SENSE!
You didn’t do anything wrong, Jessie, and I really don’t know why people are trying to make you the villain. It was an honest mistake that literally anybody could’ve made

[marajones]

I love the song Aphrodite so much! Your music boosts my serotonin levels 💕

[Claire-wtdp]

hey jessie !! i just want you to know that we all know you are doing your best and we love you !! it is not your fault that horrible people exist and decided to manipulate you, and if other people cant realize that than it's their bad !! the fact that it has been bugging you so much shows how much you care about this. please dont feel gulity for other people's actions, it is NOT YOUR FAULT !! and you are not dumb !! you are a wonderful person and such an inspiration to so many people and never forget that !! keep going jessie, we love you 🖤🖤

[sarbearr]

as silly as it sounds next time you are hiring an artist ask what encryption software they use to protect their ip. common ones are glaze and nightshade. most artists are being forced to use encryption software so their art doesn’t get scraped for ai training. I think that might help weed out the artist from the ai (f)artist. does anyone else have any suggestions to help?

[cotttageappple]

I’m so sorry this happened to you :( people suck so much and I’m obsessed with the song 💜 much love xox

[viro_the_sheep]

thats awful that that happened :(
my favourite song of yours is "Lily" and i would want to draw something for it. I should draw an example first ahah

[SammieLand]

This is sad, you shouldnt have to stand up for yourself like that. I feel like it was pretty obvious they duped you and not the other way around. What you did was completely fine and normal, they were in the wrong 100%. Love you jessie ❤

Occasionally artists go above and beyond their pay parameters for a project that inspires them. I know I have. It isn't something that should be an expectation, nor does them not doing so mean your project isn't inspiring. But I've been given commissions that I've bumped up a few tiers because I loved it so much that I didn't want to stop drawing when I finished what I had been paid to do.

[Muooose]

Gurl, you are an artist. You have AI as a threat like other artists

[fruitydishofpasta]

Went from “illustrators” to “using ai” that gave me whiplash😭

[wryginger]

"Hey, artist! You don't like artists!" Brilliant.
