The image in the tweet is that of Ukrainian model Olya from a 2009 photoshoot by photographer retroatelier, not Esther Jones. The claim Betty Boop was based solely on Jones has been debunked. The confusion stems from a 1932 court case and a 2015 PBS story. https://retroatelier.livejournal.com/15698.html https://www.pbs.org/publiceditor/blogs/pbs-public-editor/betty-oops/ https://www.cartoonbrew.com/classic/pbs-admits-that-it-published-fake-history-of-betty-boops-creation-208635.html https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/pbs-confesses-to-publishing-false-history-facts-about-betty-boop.html/ https://www.history.com/news/the-people-v-betty-boop https://welcome2thebronx.com/2016/03/02/bronx-woman-helen-kane-was-inspiration-for-betty-boop/ https://mashable.com/archive/real-betty-boop

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1303216483649171456
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
