It’s hilarious that people are bagging on Lily for using exclusively black women as “props” in her video when…

1. The dancers were in on it. They’ve defended the video on Twitter.
2. Backup dancers are traditionally known for their tendency to dance.
3. “If you can’t detect the sarcasm, you’ve misunderstood.”
4. Do the ladies on the far left and right look black to you?

She’s making fun of what Miley did with the gratuitous twerking and whatnot. The dancers were even the ones who came up with the whole champagne sequence, omfg.
