See, I think that's why people are uncomfortable with it. If it were Kyary doing it, no one would care because she's Japanese and she's playing to her own culture.

It's when you get a white American girl doing it that it starts to feel uncomfortable because then it starts seeming appropriative.

NAYRT. That reasoning seems ridiculous to me. It's a line of thought that seems to lead to all cultures staying in their narrowly defined box - and while you should appreciate other cultures, you can't take inspiration from them or do anything referencing those cultures, because otherwise "appropriation."

[(Anonymous)]

There's a big difference between taking inspiration from and using stereotypes, though. It's entirely possible to do the former without falling into the latter.

It's like the difference between, say, doing a music video with Indian-inspired music and having the singer wear something that looks similar to a sari versus having everyone in the music video look like they stepped right out of a Bollywood movie.

C'mon, people would bash that first video anyway :/

She's Canadian. And enjoying another culture is not fucking appropriating it.

Avril is Canadian. Bad enough Canadians are shoving Beiber on us. Don't make us take her too.
