A model who wore a skimpy crop top to a theme park in Orlando claims that she was told to cover up her cleavage if she wanted to enter the park. Whitney Paige Venable, 26, from Florida, United States, says she was shocked at how Universal Studios staff treated her besides telling her to change her top.

The woman who has 1.6 million followers on Instagram said, "I felt humiliated and embarrassed. I was told I had to change my top to be able to enter. I think it’s because I have naturally big breasts and it makes people uncomfortable but as far as I know, my clothing wasn’t against the rules."

This incident took place in June 2021 but has only been brought to light on social media this week. Whitney shared the footage with Jam Press explained that she turned up at the theme park wearing a white sports bra and mint green shorts. The model alleged that many other women in the theme park were wearing similar outfits.

In the video, Whitney could be seen on her way into Universal Studios with her friend, looking excited for their day out. A few minutes later, their happy mood was crushed as a second video showed them standing at the gate of the park being told that they couldn't come in. In the clip, she could be heard saying, "So, I guess my top is inappropriate for Universal, we're having a problem right now," before panning the camera towards the staff members.

In a follow-up video, Whitney, who was turned away at the entrance, says, "So apparently I have to go change into a more appropriate top even though I've seen a lot of people here in sports bra-looking tops." Speaking more about the incident the model said, "I felt like I was being targeted and it was the summer so it was hot, I didn't really understand [the issue] but having natural large breasts brings attention."

She continued, "I ended up putting on another top over the sports bra, my friend had another top in the car." "But I ended up taking it off later on in the park because it was hot and ugly. And the fact I was judged really pissed me off," she said. "Smaller women can wear whatever they want – having big breasts however gets sexualized."

Last year, Whitney claimed she was banned by Twitter after people reported her saucy pictures. She said, "One day, I changed my cover photo to an innocent shot of me showing off my figure - but I was wearing underwear. And suddenly, my account was banned. It made me feel discriminated against because there are far worse pictures on Twitter. It's not fair."

The Universal Studios in Orlando are yet to comment on this incident.
