Victoria’s Secret is facing backlash for tweeting in support of the LGBTQ community for Pride Month just months after the brand’s chief marketing officer, Ed Razek, made controversial remarks about the exclusion of transgender models from the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show.

PINK, the company’s line of lingerie and apparel geared at millennial and Gen Z women, tweeted the message on Tuesday, sharing that it’s “proud to celebrate our LGBTQ associates & customers that make an impact in their communities.” The tweet also featured the brand’s logo re-envisioned as a rainbow heart.

Here at PINK, we’re proud to celebrate our LGBTQ associates & customers that make an impact in their communities. Inclusion makes us stronger and we’re committed to giving everyone a voice. We’ll be sharing Pride stories from associates, Campus Reps and PINK fans all month long! pic.twitter.com/zJsh2MwuGK — VSPINK (@VSPINK) June 4, 2019

But quickly after posting the message, critics began to question if Victoria’s Secret really meant what it said, considering Razek’s bold statements in an interview with Vogue back in November.

In the piece, which followed the brand’s 2018 fashion show, Razek addressed pressure to try something new with the brand and introduce a more inclusive cast of models, such as plus-size women or transgender models.

“Shouldn’t you have transsexuals in the show? No. No, I don’t think we should. Well, why not? Because the show is a fantasy,” Razek said. “It’s a 42-minute entertainment special. That’s what it is.”

Now, Twitter users are reminding the brand that the “T” in LGBTQ actually stands for that same group of people that Razek spoke out against.

Anyone else remember when Victoria Secret said trans and plus size models aren’t allowed to model for them?? I do. https://t.co/0P6Nfpd7l2 — Kendall (@k_shaffer_) June 6, 2019

Y’all do know that T stands for trans right? — joi (@joidean_) June 6, 2019

@NikitaDragun LOL. What hypocrisy. @VictoriasSecret is about as transphobic as they come. — Alexa Zinovenko (@zinoalex) June 4, 2019

You don’t want trans models because it doesn’t fulfill your “fantasy.” ✌🏻 — Kelsey Helmick 🏳️‍🌈 (@helmickkm) June 7, 2019

Change it back to pink. We don’t need y’all to support our community since we can’t sell “the fantasy”. — christian (@aVileBitch) June 7, 2019

Others chimed in to share their assumptions that Victoria’s Secret likely took a financial hit after explicitly excluding the LGBTQ community from its brand, and are now trying to win those consumers back.

Victoria’s Secret didn’t immediately respond to Yahoo Lifestyle’s request for comment and has yet to publicly address the criticism. However, Razek apologized for his remarks just one day after the Vogue article was published.

“To be clear, we absolutely would cast a transgender model for the show,” Razek’s statement read. “I admire and respect their journey to embrace who they really are.”
