Dark Hollywood: The Balenciaga Scandal Involving Children, Kim Kardashian, Nicole Kidman, and Kanye West
I know the holidays are supposed to be all cheery and happy, but Dark Hollywood doesn’t stop for anyone. In October, we did a whole Dark Hollywood special series so definitely check that out.
Check out our BLOGMAS SCHEDULE because we will be continuing our Dark Hollywood series alongside other juicy Hollywood posts.
Now I don’t want to go too much into detail about the Balenciaga scandal because everyone has covered it by now. You guys should also check out our video about that on our channel where we are also doing EXPOSMAS!!!
In a nutshell…
Balenciaga’s new campaign featured children holding stuffed animals dressed up in bondage, BDSM… and one of the teddy bears seemed to be beaten up.
There’s also this photo of what seems to be a model holding up the abused bear with bruises on their face to match…
To make matters even worse by making this campaign seem PURPOSEFUL… they included a Supreme Court document about “virtual child porn.”
The 2008 Supreme Court decision in U.S. v. Williams states that the promotion of child pornography is illegal and not protected by freedom of speech.
In this photo, you can see a stack of books with only one standing out & notably celebrating Belgian painter Michaël Borremans, whose works frequently feature children.
That book features depictions of castrated toddlers. Michaël Borremans described his paintings as “toddlers engaged in playful but mysterious acts with sinister overtones and insinuations of violence.”
I am not going to include any photos from that book because they are truly disturbing… like beyond all measures. Search it up for yourself if you want to be disturbed.
The reason I classify this scandal under Dark Hollywood is because nothing about it is artistic and everything about it is purposeful and includes messages that MIND YOU, I can’t even claim are subliminal messages from how obvious they are.
Gabriele Galimberti, the photographer behind the photoshoot, is known to photograph kids and the whole idea behind his work is photographing people surrounded by their everyday items…
But one would argue that BDSM outfits aren’t something children should be surrounded by in their everyday life, no? Let alone the flask… wine glasses… alcohol… and a whip…
Gabriele is now arguing that he had nothing to do with the shoot and his job was to just shoot the set… to an extent, you can’t blame everything on the photographer since before him there is a set designer, a costume designer, a theme, aesthetic, and so much more.
But he is just one piece of the whole puzzle. He was also CHOSEN to photograph this specific photoshoot, which alone says a lot.
Now Balenciaga is suing the production company and attacking marketing agencies to deflect from the fact that everyone important to Balenciaga was on the set of the campaign and everything had to get approval before it went public.
thank u for the performative activism balenciaga
Also, I believe their production company is something in-house so it’s not like it’s an outside company, but rather something they own. Therefore, them suing themselves is another tactic to deflect from the public attacks and act like this wasn’t intentional.
Balenciaga’s official statement:
Balenciaga is known for being anti-fashion and fashion is known for being sexy and innovative… but there is nothing sexy or innovative about children being part of a sex campaign.
More disturbing images from the campaign…
Someone pointed out how they have a kid holding a bear in sex clothes and there’s a lock around the bear’s neck… under that photo on the homepage, is an adult man with a key on his finger…
Human trafficking and child pornography is a big thing happening in our world and often times it’s controlled by the Elite world.
Sure it seems like we made a dent in that whole thing because of the Epstein scandal, but that was just the tip of the iceberg. And if the trial would have continued if he didn’t “kill himself,” big elite names would have been exposed.
The fact that the Epstein scandal focused only on minors would make that seem “normal” in comparison with the actual ages of victims of child pornography and human trafficking.
It’s a very dark and deeper thing than most people know… I can’t even claim to know everything because even that confuses me and scares me.
We’ll talk about Kanye West and The Kardashians in a moment.
I don’t know how to explain the Balenciaga scandal because why would a brand do something so obvious that can forever ruin them, right?
In Dark Hollywood, there are A LOT of rituals. Conspiracy theorists love to talk about the Illuminati, worshiping Satan, and so on, but as I stated years and years ago, from my personal knowledge talking with sources from that world… the Illuminati is just a distraction story that the general public loves to feed into.
The whole new world order, Satan, and celebrities with the one eye… a lot of the times, you guys ask “well why are celebrities so obvious with it?”
Because focusing so much on the Illuminati and complying it with so much evidence from celebrities feeding into the theory, is just one way to distract the general public from the truth. There are some themes there that are true such as media control and brainwashing the masses, but it’s far more than selling your soul to get a #1 hit on Billboard.
I don’t wanna get too far off the topic, but this month we will be talking about Humilation Rituals in Dark Hollywood and this Balenciaga scandal reads to me as a possibility of a Humiliation Ritual.
There are a lot of reasons why humiliation rituals take place and we will be talking more about that in regard to Dark Hollywood & Elite Hollywood, but be sure to give me your thoughts in the comments below.
Here’s the thing about Dark Hollywood and Elite Hollywood… they are all connected.
The fashion world is very dark and twisted and someone like Kim Kardashian—whom I’m actually very fond of—is someone that has worked overtime to make her mark in the fashion world. Kanye elevated her status and helped her get solid connections in the fashion world—something that she does not deny.
Kim is a celebrity who has worked with Balenciaga very famously and elevated their brand in the celebrity world, especially with her all-covered Balenciaga look at the 2021 Met Gala.
So when the scandal happened, the finger was pointed at Kim to explain as well since she’s heavily involved with the brand.
This is her official statement:
I like her statement and I didn’t expect anything else. Kim is very PR savvy and she knows what to say, how to say it, and when to say it.
I am telling you now, Balenciaga is officially dropped by Kim. She just doesn’t want to make it seem like she’s someone brands can’t trust because the majority of these fashion luxury brands have dark ties behind the scenes. While many may condemn each other in public, there’s a different story painted behind the scenes.
And a scandal like this shows celebrity loyalty. This also depends and is heavily influenced by how famous & impactful a celebrity is. Ask yourself this—can Kim Kardashian make or break Balenciaga? Can Balenciaga make or break Kim?
Also, loyalty is something big in the dark & elite world. It can get very dark. It’s like college frats & hazing where you show how loyal you are by participating in such inhumane pranks. This also has to do with humiliation rituals and showing loyalty through that. Rest assured, I got y’all covered for the rest of the month.
There were many plans for Kim & Balenciaga in 2023, especially with her set to be designed by them for upcoming events, but according to my sources, they’re not moving forward despite her not saying that in her official statement. She’s already in talks with other designers and with Balenciaga out of the window now, expect Kim to be a face of and partner up with a different brand for 2023 campaigns.
In a timely and very much Kardashian-PR manner, divorce settlement news hit the press during this time… stating that Kanye will pay Kim $200k monthly for child support… a number Kanye will probably not give.
This also shifts the focus from Kim’s partnership with Balenciaga to a story where people sympathize with her, considering Kanye has beautifully flushed his legacy down the toilet in the most bizarre way possible.
The only issue here is that there are a lot of layers to the campaign… as I said… it goes far beyond what any of us can comprehend mainly because it was purposeful which makes me believe it was a humiliation ritual alongside many other factors.
The issue here is that… every layer of the campaign is very… satanic…
The layers behind this scandal
Lotta Volkova who has worked very famously with Balenciaga has been under fire with many using this photo…
At ESMG, we fact check and that is NOT Lotta Volkova. That is a 2016 photograph of an unnamed runway model showcasing designs from Chinese designer and performance artist Sheguang Hu's collection during the Mercedes-Benz China Fashion Week.
Volkova’s representative spoke on her behalf, saying “she condemns the abuse of children in any form.”
The spokesperson also said that Volkova “has not worked with Balenciaga or its team since 2017 and she has in no way participated in the brand’s recent Instagram or advertising campaigns.”
However… one look at Lotta Volkova’s Instagram (which she privated), shows very disturbing images involving children & more.
Jake Shields covers this more on Twitter if you wanna check out that thread, but basically… there are a lot of layers to this scandal that show that this was done on purpose for God knows what reason…

Here’s the thing!
Kim and Lotta Volkova are good friends!
All these behind-the-scenes fashion people are who enable celebrities to be big in fashion and Kim was introduced to a lot of these people through Kanye.
Kanye’s innermost creative circle included Virgil Abloh, Miu Miu stylist Lotta Volkova, and Yeezy/Gap design director Mowalola Ogunlesi.

Kim wasn’t taken aback by Balenciaga’s campaign because she has worked with these people behind the scenes who are known for doing even crazier things in the name of fashion than Balenciaga did.
I’m not saying she condones this or whatnot, but these elite celebrities are NOT shocked when the dark things that they are very well aware of happening behind closed doors, come to light.
Nicole Kidman is part of Balenciaga’s campaign and she has remained silent…
Nicole’s father, Dr. Antony Kidman, mysteriously passed away on September 12, 2014, in Singapore with one popular theory claiming that he was allegedly part of a child abuse and trafficking ring, which ultimately led to his untimely death.
Most reports say he died of a heart attack while others mention a tragic accident… it’s suspicious as to why his cause of death was never properly confirmed. At the time of his death, there were child abuse allegations. Check out this article that details more.
And now? Nicole is under fire for not talking out about this scandal and many sources are bringing up her father and the allegations that were against him.

According to one source of mine, Nicole is in a situation where she needs Balenciaga and she wants to keep that check running. That goes back to the argument of loyalty I was talking about. Unlike Kim, Nicole wants & needs to stay in the good graces of the fashion brand because she’s not as influential as Kim.
You never know what brand will want her next or not. So there are a lot of layers to it, but that’s the gist. Who’s to say she won’t drop them due to the media pressure right now?
This post has gotten too long, but I will say that a lot of what Kanye exposes about media control, propaganda, child victims, and so much more… is TRUE.
He just goes about it in a way that makes everyone label him as crazy and this is something pushed by modern-day media so they can discredit him and focus on his flaws, rather than the fact that he is lowkey exposing Dark Hollywood.
What’s the best way to discredit someone? Make them look crazy.
However, nowadays Kanye is just straight-up disgraced as he sympathizes with Hitler and the Nazis. So he went from going about it in a bad way and made to look crazy… to committing hate crimes.
I hope you guys enjoyed this post that has kicked off our BLOGMAS schedule.
