Article: 'Psy Style' Avril Lavigne's music video under controversy for racism

Source: Herald News via Naver

1. [+5,079, -156] The length of her legs make her no different from an Asian

2. [+4,573, -143] Even music videos are plagiarized nowadays

3. [+3,382, -98] The world is large and full of weird people..

4. [+2,803, -86] Not too fond of the song, didn't really have anything that caught me

5. [+1,933, -433] The music video... was surprising... Lavigne jjang!!

6. [+506, -13] It feels like a dance remake of Gangnam Style but am I the only one who doesn't think it's making a joke out of Japanese women?;; It seems a bit like they're victimizing themselves... Lavigne clearly loves Japan. Even her title is Hello Kitty.

7. [+482, -8] Lavigne said so herself on Twitter that it's not racist, the title of this article is misleading.

8. [+430, -10] Lavigne's known for loving Japan. I don't think she was making a joke out of Japanese culture more than parodying it. Just that it came out looking awkward, which was the problem ㅋㅋ

9. [+381, -15] This is not racism at all. Avril Lavigne is at the top when it comes to loving Japan, how is it racist?

10. [+427, -139] Seems like she shot the video because she likes Japan. If that's the case, then what about Korean artists using white people in their music videos? Isn't that racism as well ㅋㅋ
