Kylie Jenner is currently under scrutiny for starring in Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion’s WAP music video for a number of reasons, including how her spot could have been handed to female musicians of color.
The backlash spurred a petition requesting the removal of Jenner in the video. The petition has been signed by over 60,000 fans as of today.
Some fans have also asked other personalities to replace Jenner’s cameo, and the list of suggestions includes actress Viola Davis.
This hope has sparked a fan edit of Davis donning Jenner’s ensemble in the video. In the remix, Davis can be seen posing while wearing Jenner’s leopard-printed outfit in the music video.
Davis reposted the tweet, asking “Who did this?” The actress later credited the fan on Instagram.
Another edit also features clips from the WAP music video, stitched with a scene from How To Get Away With Murder, where Davis’ character Annalise Keating dances while holding onto a bottle of alcohol.
Davis posted the video with the caption, “#HowToGetAwayWithWAP.” The hilarious edits caught Cardi B’s attention, who responded, “I’m so [fanned] out right now, [you] don’t even know.”
Have a laugh at the edits below.
