We all remember our friend Bhad Bhabie, who became famous on Dr. Phil in 2016 for her viral phrase "cash me ousside, how bou' 'dat?"

That was a collective sigh for American pop culture, but as time has gone on, Bhabie has become more problematic.


Here's Bhabie at just 13 years old:

Danielle Bregoli, aka Bhad Bhabie, managed to parlay her obnoxious behavior into a musical career.

Bhabie has found some success as a rapper, with songs like "Gucci Flip Flops."

But as time has gone on, her image has gotten darker.

And no, we don't mean her material has gotten tonally darker.

We mean Bhabie herself has gotten literally darker.




When she unveiled her hair in braids, folks started noticing that Bhabie appeared to be "Blackfishing."





In an Instagram video circa 2019, Bhabie let slip some rather racist rhetoric:

"To all the Black females that are saying my hair [ain't] meant for box Braids, guess the f*** what, y'all hair [ain't] meant to be straight but y'all glue whole wigs on to your heads and sew Brazilian/Indian/Peruvian hair which [isn't anything] like your natural hair texture at all."





The Kardashians and Ariana Grande have both been accused of "Blackfishing" in the past, meaning it is an unfortunate trend amongst celebrity culture.

While these women want to look the part, they'll never face the discrimination and bias that comes with the look they're copying.

The book Everything You Need to Know about Cultural Appropriation is available here.

"Cultural appropriation is a form of identity theft. It happens when someone adopts another culture's identifiable, tangible elements without honoring their cultural importance or significance."

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
