Ex-Disney Princess Reveals Park Secrets | Gianmarco Soresi | Stand Up Comedy Crowd Work

[@SaoirsesShelf]

Hi I’m the princess in the video 😅 go to my channel if you wanna see my recent poetry performance about turning 30 as an ex princess ❤️✨

[@AmaranthEternal]

Why hello again again

[@PtylerBeats]

Oh boy

[@squee599]

Hot dog!

[@J.Blazer]

brilliant promotion

[@thenerdygamer5929]

I'm a theater kid too!

[@LadyUndeath]

What I gathered from this interaction: if you're in a room with a few dozen people in Orlando Florida, at least one of them has been fired by Disney.

[@Zhiperser]

It'll be more than one. There are 82,000 cast members at Disney World. 263,000 or 1 in 32 of all the jobs in FL are either directly or indirectly involved with Disney.

[@ambignerd]

Sorry to comment again but I have another Disney related thing. My mom’s friend used to work there and she was casted as goofy. Keep in mind that this woman is literally a model and she was told she couldn’t play a princess because she was too tall

[@cruztastrophe]

That one actually makes sense. If a kid goes to Disney expecting to meet a princess and she turns out to be 5'0" tall or 6'0" tall, the kid is gonna be really confused. Being fired from being a princess for turning 23 is ridiculous though.

[@sleepysera]

​@cruztastrophe I can assure you that to a 2 foot toddler, ANY adult looks like a giant...

[@mischr13]

@@cruztastrophe there's no way I would notice if one of the princesses was "too tall" when I was a kid. they were all tall

[@frostfang1]

I was three and had a problem with the sad barney my mom hired ( both conceptually and how short it was and other lackluster features) so I get it, also means shorter models and actresses have a niche they can fill.

[@CamilaHaurea]

i might be wrong but i believe all the costumes are the same size and there’s a limit to what can be adjusted, so it makes sense that they wouldn’t hire tall princesses

[@lulairenoroub3869]

Isn't it funny how Disney is so famously protective of their image, and the image they've cultivated is evil corporate lunatics?

[@POPPPUdane]

It helps transition us from Disney children to normal adults

[@thee_yelwah]

Crazy idea: To keep a good image, behave ethically and treat your employees well.

[@yikemoo]

Really? Man, I missed some major societal changes apparently. I honestly didn't realize Disney had this many people think of them like this.

[@lulairenoroub3869]

@yikemoo ... really? You didn't know Disney was a gigantic evil corporation? Or you didn't know people perceived them that way? I find that genuinely fascinating either way. What did you think of when you thought of Disney? Or what did you imagine others thought?

[@lulairenoroub3869]

@yikemoo I'm sure not everyone thinks the same thing. But Walt was a hardcore capitalist. He despised unions. There's other things about him you can check out if you like, but those two facts are indisputable. The company still has that ingrained in its DNA. They are monopolistic, anti competitive, and aggressively anti-worker. They are extremely litigious, fiercely controlling of their brand, they made their whole company off of the back of the public domain while doing everything in their power to kill the public domain, they own all sorts of horrifying businesses in a million different sectors, fighting tooth and nail every step of the way to kill all regulation. I don't know if any of this resonates with y'all. There's a billion other things I could talk about, but I'm getting a little ranty, so I'm gonna stop. But yeah, we all enjoy some kind of Disney media (because they own most of it), but the company is a tyrannical behemoth that paints sunshine and rainbows on the walls of their sweatshops and toxic chemical plants

[@SirVer51]

I mean, the proposal thing makes sense for everyone involved; imagine you propose to someone, they say no, and there's a Disney princess in full getup right next to you during what's probably one of the worst moments of your life...

[@auran_vesdranor]

That's why public proposals, unless you know that he/she wants to, is just an awful move. Cause besides the embarrassment, it also puts immense pressure on that person to say yes because of that otherwise inevitable embarrassment.

[@virtheon]

​@@auran_vesdranor the best advice I've heard on the matter is "the place and time of the proposal should be a surprise, not the answer"

[@auran_vesdranor]

@@virtheon "Should" is the keyword here. But yes, I 100% agree.

[@EMLtheViewer]

@@virtheonOoh, this is good. It's like saying “Let's take the next step on the journey we're already sharing” instead of “Do you want to join me? (please say yes)” It requires that both members already be emotionally committed and just ready to make it official.

[@Vooblebooble]

Also maybe just dont propose in front of a stranger dressed in cosplay you waited in line for without them knowing. I'm surprised and disappointed that would even be allowed at all.

Even Gianmarco's audience members attract fans who are children of divorce in their own profession. Its like a chain reaction.

A colleague of mine was from the same area as me. She had brought her husband to that area multiple times, introduced him to her friends, etc. She was obsessed with Disney. Annual tickets, Disney Christmas tree, Disney tableware, homemade Disney dresses. She invited me to their home when I was fairly new and her husband had been told that I was from the same area. He asked me FIVE times to reassure him that I wasn’t a Disney adult 🤣 poor guy thought everyone there was obsessed because she was (is) and all her friends are, too.

I feel like anyone that was a former CM has got tons of stories. I worked a resort and have an entire story about a family that forgot their five year old and went to the parks. Then when we called them, they didn’t want to come back for her and complained that their vacation was ruined. CMs have certainly seen things and stuff which is why anytime I visit the parks, I’m as nice as possible to them because I’ve been there and I know.

[@onyx_mango]

the fact that the 1. forgot their own CHILD and 2. didn't want to go back for her + victimized themselves????? scary how some people are allowed to be parents

[@melissagreen7327]

@huffiepuff33 they took their own car too. So they weren't using Disney transport and this was before magicbands came into play so they had paper tickets too and never noticed she was missing.

So what. did they want resort staff to babysit her until they came back? Or just leave her in their room? That’s crazy.

The hands on experience joke did not get nearly enough credit, that was gold

[@Evija3000]

Well I once got into a KZbin argument with a handful of people who thought 5 year old kids should have free access to guns as long as they're taught about gun safety so... if it's true it stops being a joke. They probably didn't even think of the school shooting angle, but literal hands on experience of parents teaching kids to shoot.

[@dogchaser520]

​@@Evija3000 There's something to kids knowing how to use a gun (like a pellet rifle, starting when they're maybe in middle school). You can learn to treat guns with respect, etc. But free access? To real guns? At 5? Some people are just thinking in terms of pure ideology, which is to say, not thinking at all... "Guns good, so maximum guns best." Quite insane.

[@Evija3000]

@@dogchaser520 Right. I'm not against teaching older kids to handle guns under supervision, but free access to the most volatile and irrational demographic group before they can likely even tie their own shoelaces... seems a biiit much :D

Gandhi was pro-guns. Its true, Gandhi was actually badass and he despised cowards. He said there was always hope for a violent man to learn non-violence, but theres none for a coward. A coward will always be a coward. He said that a Man, who when faced with the threat of violence acted like a mouse, was a coward. He is a danger to all those around him and has no business at the head of a family. Gandhi said if there was the possibility of non-violence he would choose non-violence. But Gandhi was no fool. He said when faced with a choice of violence or cowardice, he would always choose violence. They've made Gandhi out to be a pacifist but he considered pacifism as cowardice. Non-violence isn't pacifism, a coward is only capable of pacifism. To Gandhi non-violence was the ideal to strive for, but he wasn't delusional and didn't believe in lying down and hiding when faced with violence and the need to defend those in need, family and country.

[@superbrain7852]

Difference is your country isnt being oppressed. You won't need to defend those in need, let that do the professionals and make the country safer. Also, just because you act in a pacifist way in situations, or want a safe system in your country, doesnt mean you are a coward, that is absolute bullshit. Pacifism doesnt even mean "running away from dangerous situations", how does any of this make sense.

[@goggles8691]

​@@superbrain7852 no it's actually the exact same: "the only thing that can stop a bad white with a gun is a good brown with a gun" Now that we're through with the joke, I feel like it's also important to note that multiple of Gandhi's movements just outright ended when people started getting violent and it's even more important to note that this comes after both WWI, where India fought and earned nothing, and the Amritsar Massacre, which had some lauding it as a great act as Indians were too inherently inferior to the white man to deserve the right to protest and instead deserved only to be fired upon. Gandhi could not afford to believe in cowardice, but he still did not return great violence in whole.
