Fans Criticize Kylie Jenner’s Presence In Cardi B’s ‘WAP’ Video
As we previously reported, as promised, on Friday (Aug. 7), Cardi B dropped her video for her new single “WAP” featuring Megan Thee Stallion. In the video, Kylie Jenner makes an appearance that many have deemed “awkward,” and many of Cardi B’s fans weren’t here for it. Many fans have expressed that Jenner’s cameo “fell flat” and that she quite frankly just didn’t need to be in the video. One fan even said that she would have rather seen Betty White in the video instead of Jenner. While another referenced seeing Whoopi Goldberg instead. Check out some of the criticism below.

Folks are tired of white impersonations of Black feminine aesthetics. That’s part of why the cameo fell flat.

They really might have to edit her out or do a remix video & use that as an excuse
