This white singer tagged Cardi and the City Girls in her “diversity” critique.
Cardi B’s collaboration with City Girls made quite an impression. The ‘Twerk’ video got everyone shook, mostly for its bass-heavy visuals. One entertainer, however, got in her feelings about the lack of white girls in the clip. Lexy Panterra, a white singer, hopped on Twitter to direct her concerns at Cardi B: “One question…where are the white girls in @iamcardib twerk video at?”
Of course, this tweet earned the singer the Black Twitter callout. She was quickly reminded that the dancers featured in the music video were selected through a contest open to all women across the globe. Twenty finalists were flown to the exotic location for the shoot and from this group, one outstanding performer would be deemed a winner and given $20 000.

It was an entire contest open to any and everyone where the top 20 contestants would get flown out and they ended up being in this video. The top person won $25,000. So don’t ask the artist why there aren’t any white girls. Ask the white girls why they can’t twerk well enough.

So, @LexyPanterra, why don't YOU have any dark skinned women in YOUR video? pic.twitter.com/h6sWSEWi0C

Serious question: what was the point of you making that comment? I am confused about why you are so upset with CardiB and City Girls having a video embracing only women of color but don't have an issue with the millions of videos with just white girls in it?
