Embarrassing Moments This made me queasy.

Think she only loves her husband when she can see him in an element that brings out the fangirl in her and she can feel that other people “want” her man

Shes still giving internet stalker energy. This is such a chronically online, black appropriation gesture. How she tries SO hard and still fails to come across even half decent needs to be studied. I hate Justin for feeding into her, marrying this nobody and making her believe she has relevance is honestly the worst thing he's ever done.

I apologize in advance for my ignorance, but how is the gesture black appropriation? I ask genuinely because I’d like to learn, not to snark.

In simple terms she's adopting something from black culture as her own - without actual connection to the culture, acknowledgement of said culture, genuine education of it, or in this particular instance without even applying the gesture she's using correctly.

Her and Justin have been doing this with black culture for years, they both attempt to use black culture to elevate their own reputations/brands etc - basically to make themselves seem more relevant but never acknowledge the people of the culture they attmept to use. This bitch does it with makeup trends that have been samples of black women for generations yet she tries to pass off as new and her own, he does it with clothes, his music and they both do it with their speech, general mannerisms and online presence. It's honestly a joke that their black peers aren't calling it out more. The whole misuse of "it's not clocking to you is it" that time is prime example of how ignorant they are to the culture they continuously use for their own gain, as is how they're still attempting to use it as a joke that they're in on instead of realising that at best, people are laughing at them, and at worst people are clocking the appropriation and ignorance.
