  • ... that designs by nail artist Jenny Bui have become part of Cardi B's signature look? Source: https://www.refinery29.com/en-us/cardi-b-nail-technician-jenny-bui-did-my-nails-video "Ariana Grande has her ponytail, Harry Styles has his Gucci suits, Taylor Swift has her red lipstick. And when you think of Cardi B, it's hard not to picture her intricate manicures. Those signature Swarovski-encrusted talons are so recognizable, they even played a central role in her Pepsi SuperBowl commercial. The woman behind them? Manicurist Jenny Bui, a.k.a. The Queen of Bling."

General: Article is new enough and long enough

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.

Overall: Seems a reasonable hook from a decent new article, well referenced. Just I can't see the QPQ here? EchetusXe 18:00, 6 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, EchetusXe, thanks for reviewing! I deliberately neglected to include a QPQ because I'm hoping for a photo and I don't want this slotted until I know whether one is going to be available or not! Reviewed, please hold until I find out whether I can get a photo. —valereee (talk) 18:42, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! :) I'm hoping to know within a week or so whether we'll be able to get one. —valereee (talk) 19:07, 9 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Hi there Valereee, do you have the picture now? Just checking in thank you lots <3 VincentLUFan (talk) (Kenton!) 11:01, 21 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Vincent60030, I don't; the friend in NJ who offered to drive to the Bronx to take photos is trading missed messages with Bui. :) —valereee (talk) 11:10, 21 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I found a picture, though it might not be ideal. You like? --GRuban (talk) 16:41, 24 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
GRuban, nice! It's definitely good for Bui! Doesn't show the nails very well, which is the more interesting image for DYK, I think. That's the problem I've found -- pictures of people holding up their nails, but you can't really see the nails. It's definitely good for the article. DYK? Maybe? I think as an illustration of the nails, maybe not? Although there may be an associated problem of the nails being artwork? I don't know. —valereee (talk) 20:17, 24 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, there are images in that same video focusing on the nails themselves, and I even uploaded a quick screenshot, but now that I think about it, it probably isn't good, we probably do need permission from Bui specifically. The key point is Copyright_law_of_the_United_States#Useful_articles. We can show a picture of a pretty car, because it's a useful object, and most of its visible parts, from the wings to the wheels to the streamlining are a big part of that usefulness, so can't really be copyrighted, but is a nail design useful? Probably not very, to be honest. So it's copyrightable. And if you do get permission from Bui, she will probably have a better photo. --GRuban (talk) 20:40, 24 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
FWIW, the friend in NJ is planning to go to the salon on Oct 8 —valereee (talk) 19:57, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
This isn't going to work out. None of the photos we've managed to get are at all compelling. Let's just put it through without a photo. —valereee (talk) 21:14, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
