Notable Media Appearances

The #TakeDownJulienBlanc Campaign

The timeline of the campaign, controversy and media coverage surrounding Julien Blanc in November 2014 are outlined below.

November 3, 2014: A change.org petition (see here) was launched against Julien urging The Como Hotel in Melbourne, Australia to cancel appearances by the pick up artist involving his dating seminar. The petition eventually gathered more than 50,000 signatures against Julien claiming his seminars are sexist, racist, and encourage isolation and emotional abuse to get women.

The creator of the petition, Jennifer Li (Jennifer Li's twitter), points to a Youtube video clip by Blanc in which he describes how to get away with indecent assault of Tokyo women. The video, which has 50,000 views and has been changed to ‘private’, is titled: White Male F-cks Asian Women in Tokyo. Another video in circulation is titled: “Pick-Up Artist” pushing Japanese Women’s heads down.

Some of the accusations against Blanc include his fixation with physical violence, in particular his photo postings on social media showing how he propositions women in chokeholds using the hastag: #ChokingGirlsAroundTheWorld.

The petition spawned 10s of thousands of Twitter tweets with the hashtag #TakeDownJulienBlanc.

November 5, 2014: A change.org petition is put up by Julien Noir in the UK to prevent the censoring of Julien Blanc and his content (Change.org - Do Not Censor Julien Blanc).

November 6, 2014: Julien Blanc takes down the tweets and videos targeted by the campaign from his twitter account and his youtube account. His twitter account is also made private or blocked by twitter to prevent public access shortly afterwards.

November 8, 2014: The change.org, and twitter campaigns reach such momentum that TV stations around the world begin to pick up the campaign and start to cover it in the news. RSD and Julien Blanc remain silent and ignore invitations to appear on TV and respond to the campaign.

November 10, 2014: Julien Blanc’s Australian visa was canceled in response to the change.org Internet campaign to stop the pickup artist from teaching his dating seminars in Australia. According the Australian immigration minister, Blanc was putting forward his derogatory abuse of women.
