Fans file petition to 'Remove Kylie Jenner' from Cardi B & Megan Thee Stallion's WAP video

Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion recently collaborated for the single WAP which was released on Friday. The music video, featuring several artists of colour in a cameo appearance, garnered many appreciations from the viewers and is at the top of YouTube’s trending page. However, Kylie Jenner’s 20-second appearance in the video was found unpleasant by many and a petition to remove her from the music video is doing the rounds.

Fans petition to remove Kylie Jenner from WAP music video

Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion were praised by fans for showing women of colour in their WAP music video. But Kylie Jenner’s cameo in the music video, wearing a leopard print attire, was not appreciated by many. She is seen for a few seconds walking the hallway while the music is turned down.

Time and again Kylie Jenner has been accused of appropriating Black culture. Soon after the WAP music video was dropped and the makeup mogul was seen in it, fans bashed her appearance. A petition has been made on Change.org to remove Kylie from the video.

Nini YouTube, Megan Hotties, and Bardo Gangs created the “Remove Kylie Jenner from WAP video” petition. The caption on it says, “The video was perfect until we saw K and I wanted to throw my phone”. It was started around three days ago and has already crossed 50,000 signatures. The petition currently has more than 63,000 signs with a goal of 75,000. In the reasons for signing box, a user commented, “I was happily enjoying my daily cup of brown women until that culture stealing colonizer showed up and made me spill. Thankyou”. Another user said, “she is a culture vulture who doesn't remember how her own complexion looks! down with the culture vultures!!!” (sic).

She mentioned that it was important for her to include “different women, that are different races and come from different backgrounds” but are powerful and influential. Kylie Jenner is yet to respond to the backlash.
