Golden girl of Hollywood, Blake Lively shared a split image of her on Instagram from the premiere of Cafe Society at 69th Cannes Film Festival. The 28-year-old actress came under the limelight for her racist caption ‘L.A face with an Oakland booty’.
The blond beauty was quoting a line from the 1992 Sir Mix-a-Lot song “Baby Got Back”. It refers to someone with a face that looks like she is from Los Angeles with a booty from the neighbouring city with African-American population.
Another day, another rich white woman using WOC's bodies as a punchline and commodity. As if Blake Lively wasn't the worst already.

Few fans got offended how a privileged and rich white women such as Blake Lively use such a caption.
Another tweep said: ‘So much privilege even GOOP feels uncomfortable’ – @mindamaureen
It hasn’t been for the first time that the lyric was used as a caption. It has been used by Katy Perry and Khloe Kardashian earlier.
Khloe updated a split image revealing her Kardashian Booty.
