The Internet has been abuzz over actress Blake Lively’s motherly curves as she slays red carpet after red carpet. The star, expecting her second child with husband Ryan Reynolds, recently stirred up controversy with an Instagram caption.
The caption read, “L.A. face with an Oakland Booty”, a nod to Sir-Mix-A-Lot’s classic anthem dedicated to big booties, “Baby Got Back”. The actress has been accused of culture appropriation of hip-hop slang as she likely has little to no knowledge of Oakland.
Sir Mix-A-Lot has come to Lively’s defense, giving the following quote to Sentinel Land Enterprise:
“If what Blake Lively meant by that comment was, ‘Oh my goodness, I’ve gained weight, I look horrible’ — and I doubt that she did — then I’m with the critics,” he said, “But no one in the world is gonna tell me that a woman that wears that dress is thinking that she’s fat. It sounds like to me like she was giving the line props.”
