Paola Mayfield Skewers Body-Shamers With Bathtub Baby Bump Photo

90 Day Fiance star Paola Mayfield is pregnant with her first child . She and Russ are overjoyed. Some of her more hateful followers have tried to body-shame her over her pregnancy, demanding that she cover up her baby bump. Pao is hitting back with a photo of her wearing nothing at all — except rose petals. Paola shared this stunning photo of her very naked, very pregnant body in a rose petal bath. In the captions, she made it clear that this is how she has chosen to clap back at her body-shamers. “People have asked me if I‘m ever going to wear more clothes,” Pao’s caption begins. She continues: “my answer is… do rose petals count?” Paola remains an absolute delight, just as she was when she wrecked the shamers who told her to stop exercising . Paola has kept her fans updated on her pregnancy and her baby bump all along. Her caption continues with a recommendation that others try a bath like hers. “You too could benefit from this home spa,” Paola suggests. She adds that her bath is “with rose petals, coconut milk, and sea salt bath.” So, you might need a shower after such a bath if you really want to get clean. Paola says that the bath is “perfect to keep my skin soft and my muscles relaxed.” In case anyone had any doubts about who had taken the picture, she gives credit where credit is due. “Thank you baby for my photo @russ_mayfield,” Paola writes. In case it was not obvious, the photographer she tagged was none other than her husband, Russ Mayfield. His name’s right there. Paola then tagged her post: “#momtobe #homespa #proudofmypregnantbody #90dayfiance #babybump” She’s a fitness model and she’s proud of her body. Paola is in no hurry to cover up her curves, even if one of them is just a baby bump. Naturally, Paola’s body-shamers weren’t done trying to scold her into hiding her body. “Eeeeww,” exclaimed a super mature critic. “Still seeking attention in most unflattering ways….” “Save this type of photograph for your husband,” demanded another. “And only your husband. Nothing worse than a thirsty pregnant woman. I really want to like you.” Really? In all of the things in the world, there’s nothing worse than a pregnant woman who’s unashamed of her body? “Why the need to seek so much attention?” wrote another. “If you really were secure & didnt give a rats f–k you wouldn’t have to seek attention being half naked…just sayin.” She’s a fitness model, she cares about keeping her fans updated, and she’s a reality star. But Paola also has her genuine fans. “I don’t think anything is wrong with you being naked and pregnant,” wrote one defender. That person continued: “Those who are asking about you wearing clothes are probably jealous.” “Who cares about clothes?” asked another. “Motherhood is beautiful and so are you!” Another wasn’t technically a critic, but offered a very different sort of positive feedback: “Those tatas are getting huge!! I love it!!” Charming. “Wow !!! I guess Russ has really lightened up,” commented another. “Before he would have made a big fuss about you being in such a photo,” that person noted. “Now he not only allows it but hes the one taking the photo !!!” Yes, it looks like Russ has gotten past at least some of his weird hangups about Paola’s job. “Omg! All these babies,” wrote a commenter. “Yours, Karine with a rainbow baby, elizabeth, aziza.” Those are all 90 Day Fiance stars with 90 Day Fiance babies. “Giant baby boom on TLC,” the commenter continued. “Can’t wait to see them all lined up.” View Slideshow: Paola Mayfield: 90 Day Fiance Star’s Hottest Photos That Russ Doesn’t Want You to See!

Paola Mayfield & Russ Mayfield: SLAMMED for Controversial Costumes!

Paola and Russ Mayfield are a 90 Day Fiance couple that keeps on going. They have their controversies, sure, but they love each other and stay together. Usually, when it comes to Paola and Russ, any disagreements see fans taking sides. Some say that Russ is too jealous or controlling, others say that Paola should quit modeling. That sort of thing. This time, these two have stirred up a very different sort of controversy. Paola Mayfield and Russ are an attractive couple. But are their Halloween costumes problematic and offensive? The short answer is: yes. That doesn’t mean that we aren’t still huge Paola fans. In fact, we were rooting for Paola to win Maxim ‘s contest , which could be an amazing boost to her modeling career. But dressing as Native Americans for Halloween is a big no-no. It’s just below blackface and Nazi symbols on the list of what to never, ever wear. Why? Because of America’s history of genocide against Native Americans, basically. Native Americans are still heavily marginalized, but white Americans love to adopt their symbols as their own. A general guide to life is: If a marginalized person tells you that what you’re doing is kinda screwed up, don’t get defensive. Just ask how you can change. Anyway, apparently none of this crossed Russ and Paola’s minds as they donned their couples costumes and got into double trouble. Paola shared the photos on Instagram, and the backlash in the comments was immediate: One comment read: “Not a fan of this costume at all! disgusting. Next year go as ketchup and mustard. Leave the traditional wear to the people that actually!!!! wear it for their cultures! Sickening people still think this is okay. Not a fan of miss @paola_mayfield so much anymore. #dobetter” We don’t know that one needs to stop being her fan, but that’s every individual’s choice. Here are some other comments: “Ummm, cultural appropriation much?” “Agree! It is disrespectful!! I am disappointed again!!” “It’s not an issue about sensitivity. It’s an issue of DISRESPECT of a people/culture as well as an APPROPRIATION by the dominant culture who has sought out to eliminate Native American people since the 1400s.” “Oh honey. No.” “Wtf?!? Not ok!!!!” “Tasteless, Native regalia is not a Halloween costume.” As you can see, some of those commenters tried to explain. Others just expressed their disgust. A few thought to differentiate between Paola and Russ. “Ah yes a white guy in native headdress and an over sexualized Native American woman…this is not okay.” One repeated a helpful motto: “Its a Culture NOT A COSTUME!!” Oh, and some of the commenters were Nativa Americans, for whom this issue hits very close to home. “My culture is not your costume @paola_mayfield .. this is so sad and offensive.” As you can imagine, there were opposing opinions presented, too. These were folks from the “who cares if it’s bad, I don’t want to change my behavior or think about how my actions impact others” camp. And, just like during the 2016 election, these people were out in force. “You guys look great! Too bad the world is so sensitive these days that even halloween costumes r censored!” Costumes aren’t censored, that’s not what that word means. But people can and should make wise choices about what they wear. “And here come the PC offended ….” People love to misuse “politically correct,” which is a largely meaningless term that’s usually used by people who just aren’t interested in being better people. “Halloween isn’t about representing a cultures struggle it’s about having fun! People are so worried about hurting feelings that nothing is allowed anymore.” That commenter, who apparently forgets that Native Americans exist and might have less fun in the face of such a mocking costume, continued. “I’m from Canada … and there are still indigenous costumes sold and worn. “I think they have beautiful traditional costume and choosing to dress up in one is not disrespectful in anyway. What are people ‘allowed’ to dress up as now a days. Geez! Everything will offend someone.” It’s worth noting that there are literally thousands of Native American women missing in Canada without any explanation. Our polite neighbors to the north aren’t a better authority on how to treat indigenous folks. Another commenter added hyperbole: “People read into way to much now if someone wears a feather in their hat it’s called discrimination I could add so many other examples but it would take me forever get over it people look at it as fun dressing up just love live enjoy #tomuch hate in this world” There are basically endless costume choices. Don’t dress as an outfit to either ridicule or sexualize a marginalized person. There aren’t many rules, but that’s one of them, and it’s super easy to follow. “Get over it. Everything has to be an upset and about race these days. Stop being so up tight and sensitive. It’s not a big deal. There are better things to be up in arms about…” If there’s one thing that minority groups like Native Americans love to hear, it’s “get over it.” That’s right up there with “it’s just a little genocide.” In case you’re concerned about the state of the world (which, actually, you should be) because these comments are so polarized, know that some commenters understand nuance. “She probably doesn’t know. She’s from a different culture.” And that, we think, might be the crux of it. Russ wasn’t able to predict the backlash, we suppose, because he’s a conservative white guy from Oklahoma. That’s not an excuse, mind you. Paola, however, is Columbian. She may have somewhat fair skin, but she is from Central America. She’s not quite. While that doesn’t make Paola part of any Plains Native American ethnic groups and doesn’t fully excuse the costume, it’s something to keep in mind. More to the point, as one of the commenters stated, Paola is still adapting to American culture and was almost certainly not aware that this costume would invite backlash. We can afford to be forgiving, folks. An apology — especially from Russ — would be appropriate, though.

Paola Mayfield: My Husband’s Going to Kill Me!

Paola Mayfield has lashed out at critics  pretty fearlessly, but when it comes to worries that she’s going to disappoint Russ, she’s a nervous (gorgeous) wreck. Because she’s in lingerie for a modeling job, and even though she’s going through with it because she’s a professional, she knows that her conservative husband doesn’t like it when she shows skin outside of the bedroom. This 90 Day Fiance  couple may be in some serious trouble. … Paola and Russ Mayfield are somewhere in the middle, as far as  90 Day Fiance  couples and the quality of their relationships are concerned. They’re doing way better than the now split  Danielle Mullins and Mohamed Jbali . And also way better than the definitely-should-split  Jorge Nava and Anfisa Arkhipchenko . But they’re not as close and cuddly as the picture-perfect, totally amicable  Alan Cox and Kirlyam, who are expecting a child  soon. As we’ve mentioned, the primary source of conflict between Paola and Russ isn’t cheating or money; it’s Paola’s job. Paola is a fitness model and now a certified personal trainer. Russ isn’t very comfortable with how she dresses … or how little she dresses … for work. (Even though he married a model and you’d think that he’d have understood that from day one) The issue this time is that Russ has been insistent very recently on  90 Day Fiance  that Paola shouldn’t wear lingerie outside of the bedroom. We’ll get into  that  in a moment. On an upcoming episode of 90 Day Fiance , Paola has booked a gig where she’s a model in a music video. But Paola is going against Russ’ wishes . Because she’s wearing lingerie. She looks incredible, of course. ( So  great that in a couple of shots, they decided to blur out her body) But she’s a nervous wreck because, while Russ wants her to find work, he doesn’t want Paola wearing lingerie on camera. (Though she is in  a  bedroom, we’d like to point out) Paola gets so worked up about upsetting Russ with her outfit that she throws up, twice. That’s hard to imagine for some folks — different people’s stomachs are more or less nervous than others. (Personally, I haven’t thrown up since January 2004, and I plan to keep it that way) But it shows how much she cares about his feelings and wants to make him happy. Russ issuing edicts about what he is and isn’t okay with Paola wearing, including for work, doesn’t sit well with us at all. First of all, my guy, sometimes (as in this case) that is literally part of her job. Second of all, she is your wife — not your property. She’s a professional, and that means wearing what she needs to on set and not either losing a gig or ruining a music video by insisting that things go her way. Good for Paola. Paola does confess her anxieties to the director. “I’m freaking out,” she says at one point. “My husband is a really conservative guy and for him, he doesn’t know I’m wearing lingerie.” We wonder how often directors hear that kind of thing. “He’s going to freak out. He’s going to kill me. I feel like I want to throw up.” We don’t  think  that Paola means that she actually fears for her life or safety. It’s worth noting that Paola and Russ are, last that we checked, still together. Reality show footage is always a little behind the times, so this issue is hopefully something that the couple has already worked out. We’ll just have to keep watching  90 Day Fiance  to find out exactly  how  they work it out. Hopefully their solution will involve Russ putting on his big-boy pants and realizing that Paola can dress for work however she needs to. Whether it’s his ego or his Oklahoma values or whatever that’s getting him all worked up about Paola wearing lingerie for modeling, he needs to get used to it and be supportive of her career. Paola’s stomach shouldn’t be in knots while she’s at a shoot. She needs to focus on her work while she’s at work, not worry if it’s going to end her marriage. When you look at this situation, you can’t help but feel for Paola.

90 Day Fiance Feud? Paola Mayfield SHADES Anfisa Arkhipchenko!

Paola Mayfield and Russ aren’t exactly blissful — the  90 Day Fiance  couple’s relationship has had its ups and downs. As you might recall, conservative Russ took issue with  Paola Mayfield’s topless photos . After one bit of friction that the two experienced on camera, Paolo posted a photo of the two looking very happy. But … it  looks  like she’s trying to start a feud with another star of the show: Anfisa Arkhipchenko. Paola captioned the above photo with a reference to a scene from the latest episode, where her friend Juan had poked a little fun at Russ. “I’m sorry I didn’t back you up with @juan_a_palacio” That’s simple enough, right? An unnecessary apology (but maybe she just did it to save face after the episode?). But that wasn’t all that she has to say: “But you know I would never strike you.” That might seem like a strange or alarming phrase, right? Usually, that kind of denial is a huge red flag about someone’s relationship. But we don’t think that Paola was talking about their relationship at all. She was almost certainly shading her fellow  90 Day Fiance  star, Anfisa Arkhipchenko. Anfisa Arkhipchenko is perhaps best described as a “nightmare gold digger.” She’s Russian and she came to the US and married Jorge Garcia with the expectation that she would live like a princess on his wealth. And Anfisa is  probably  pretty enough to be someone’s trophy wife, right? To say that she’s been “disappointed” to learn that Jorge is in debt is an understatement. She’s not even subtle about the fact that she wants money. And Paola’s singling her out without even saying her name. As for the “I would never strike you,” line … Jorge and Anfisa sat down to negotiate a postnup. Because Anfisa doesn’t want to absorb Jorge’s debt. (Though she’s fine with spending his money) After the two of them are left alone to talk, they both get frustrated. Jorge suggests that, from the way that she’s acting, Anfisa might not be mature enough for this discussion. Instead of replying like an actual person, Anfisa tries to hit him in the face. Jorge deflects it with his arm, but that’s really not the point. Hitting somebody is assault. Hitting your spouse is domestic violence. (By the way, TLC aired the footage! Of what is clearly a crime!) Jorge has his own issues — lying about his finances, for starters. (Also, if she’s too immature to talk about finances, isn’t she too immature to marry, even if she is 21 years old?) But nobody needs to get hit. Paola was clearly referring to this super f–ked up woman and relationship. 90 Day Fiance  airs on TLC. TLC is the network that exposes the world to the Duggars, and thus to that unrepentant creep Josh Duggar. TLC is the network that airs  Kate Plus 8 , starring that absolute beast of a woman, Kate Gosselin. We guess that Anfisa Arkhipchenko must feel right at home among her fellow nightmares who should never be allowed around human beings or non-human animals. But TLC sure can pick ’em, huh? We don’t know that Paola was trying to start up a feud with Anfisa. But Anfisa is awful. Paola might have just been trying to use humor to deflect from what fans might see as her shortcoming by pointing out that Anfisa is immeasurably worse. She’s not wrong. But whatever her intentions, we know that Anfisa is a loose cannon. Paola may have started a feud with her whether she wanted to or not. View Slideshow: 21 Celebrity Feuds We Never Saw Coming
