People are PISSED!
Blake Lively is receiving more than a little backlash after she posted a photo of her volutpious derrière in a gold dress on the Cannes red carpet with the caption, "L.A. face with an Oakland booty." Although the actress was referencing Sir Mix-A-Lot's famous hit "Baby Got Back," commenters were quick to attack her for in appropriating black culture.
"Another day, another rich white woman using WOC's bodies as a punchline and commodity. As if Blake Lively wasn't the worst already," one user wrote.
We think the crazies should calm down! The Gossip Girl star is pregnant with her second child, and she was obviously just using a song lyric to describe her changing physique.
The blonde beauty clearly doesn't value the opinions of others, because the post is still up on her account!
