Yes. The Superintendent of the Los Angeles Unified School District definitely issued a statement about an incident that never happened.

@digbette did a really good and thorough job in explaining why this is in part a race issue. Your coded language is troubling. You immediately going to the “you are saying white girls can’t have big lips” reeks of this new found white victimhood and denial of privilege that seems to be running rampant. Understand that…

I love people who believe this.

OK. Well... let’s take it back a few steps?

Does not surprise me that someone oblivious enough to use the term “race card” thinks pointing out shit like this would require strain.

The fact that anyone who equates Kylie Jenner or any of the Kardashians their idol is really sad and means our society will self destruct in 10 years.

I think the real question is how hard are you straining to not see this is a race issue?

I hope you didn't strain yourself trying to figure out how to shoehorn a race card into the discussion.

You might want to actually read the Snopes article you linked to. It reveals the actual origins of the Cher story and how blaming Cher and similar people for it is just a modern take on a very old urban legend.

Betty Boop was black and had average sized lips fyi. The cartoon version took some creative liberties. Can't be bothered to annex a Google link.

But even if they do want to mimic her lips without surgery, USE LIPSTICK. Drag queens have been faking full lips forever. OMG these dumbass children....

And, lo, I recall the halcyon days of yore when I dated a white dude in North Carolina. Me, in my fecund youth of 19, experienced a decided loss of ardor towards the young, bandy-legged Marine as he passed a Camel to his buddy while warning him not to “nigger-lip” it while he took a drag. I’d been boning him for a few…

Forgot about her.

Ohhhhh yes this is accurate. The overly done big eyes and blue hair always made me think anime but now with the lips, she is indeed a human bratz doll.

Colored contacts. She has dark brown eyes like all her siblings.

If you view pics featuring her profile you’ll see that they are certainly not just drawn on. She got injections. From the front it’s easy to think it’s just drawn on, but when you see pics of her face from the side or 3/4 it’s clear.

As a 36 year old man, I can assure you none of my guy friends are into whatever the heck this is supposed to be. natural FTW ladies.

Please stop. No one does this.

I thought she was turning into a bratz doll

Good grief, she looks older at 17 than I do at 31 with all of that makeup. Kids, teens, and tweens, you don’t need all of that to look beautiful, I promise.
