Kylie Jenner made a cameo in the risqué music video of Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion’s WAP. However, many aren’t pleased with her appearance, spurring a petition with over 60,000 signatures requesting her removal.
Jenner was featured for a little more than 20 seconds in the video, where she was seen walking down the hallways wearing a leopard-printed ensemble.
The petition, titled “Remove Kylie Jenner from WAP video,” was created for several reasons. Some fans felt that the reality star was stealing the spotlight as media outlets have been harping on Jenner’s short cameo rather than the video itself belonging to two Black women.
Viewers also argued that Jenner might have taken up an opportunity that could have been given to female musicians of color.
Apart from the reality star, the video features music personalities from minority groups like Normani, Mulatto, and Rosalía.
However, Jenner does not seem fazed by the backlash, as she recently shared a series of behind-the-scenes photos and clips from the video shoot, which you can view below.
