New “Not Like Us” reference revealed

The “Cell block one” scene seems to reference this 1997 photo of Milla Vovovich.

Why? The rabbit hole goes deep… 🧵👇

Recall this scene occurs when Kendrick raps, “Say Dr*ke, I heard you like em young” and “better hide your little sister from him.”

Milla Jovovich is a fashion model and actress. She’s best known for her roles in Fifth Element & Resident Evil.

However, Jovovich was “discovered” at age 11 by Jean-Luc Brunel and began her career as a model in the 80s and early 90s while still a minor.

In 1999, Jean-Luc Brunel was banned from his agency following a BBC undercover report on abuse in the fashion industry, and then moved to the US and founded MC2 Model Management with funding from Jeffery Epste*n.

In December of 2020, Brunel was arrested, accused of r*pe of a minor and under investigation on suspicion of supplying underage girls to Epste*n.

Two months later, he was found dead in prison, hanged, just like Epste*n.

Here’s Jovovich talking about her experiences in the modeling industry as a minor.

A few other possibly relevant details:

Jovovich was briefly married at age 16 to a 21 year old man (though the marriage was annulled by her mother two months later)

Jovovich was set to appear in “Welcome to America,” a film about s*x trafficking (ultimately the film would become “Trade” and would not star Jovovich)
