Hi! Japanese person here! She made this song for her Japanese fans (Me, back in the day) She consulted Japanese language specialists to get the Japanese parts right. This video is so close to J-pop, and I love the bright colors and the loving of our food. So, white people, you can't call this racist when no Japanese person thinks that way.

[@l0verc0re]

@・ᴗ・ Exactly! They act as if someone eating Japanese food, Speaking Japanese and dressing up in cutesy clothing is something to be pressed about. I've never seen ONE Japanese person complaining that this song is racist. Only white Americans.

[@kittykat4570]

佐藤さくら They do that with any culture. Mexican, Asian, ect. Everyone who isn’t the race calls it racist against that race. So dumb.

[@TheStepmonkey]

Thanks for saying that!

[@ModxVoldHunter]

佐藤さくら actually when I seen this and I’m white and I’m (from) the USA I FUCKING LOVE THIS SONG, I don’t know why people from my Country are being assholes, also love your anime pfp btw (yes my keyboard is on drugs or something)

[@abbichu7775]

Ok you are amazing for saying that. I hate it when just because someone makes a song with words in a different language that is racist. Honestly it gets pretty annoying

[@username8448]

Never forget that was a song for her Japanese fans and the Japanese loved it whilst the Americans were crying racist

[@teleportingpotatoe]

hello fellow fans that only love this song by her lol

[@musicandmoviefan9217]

We Americans are crying Racist at ANYTHING that we don't like...its getting pathetic.

[@_Stormfather]

I wouldn't call it racist, but... it's pretty bad

[@armijolly]

people who arent from that culture will call anything racist.

[@pornesianparrapio1590]

cant say the same since they tried to kill my grandparents

[@randybrayshaw9070]

To those people who aren't aware, Avril is a huge star in Japan. She is so big to the point where she has to record Girlfriend in Japanese. She also sang anime openings in one of One Piece movies and Annie Leonhart's character design from attack on titan was also inspired by her. She is also the first western artist in Japanese history to have three albums in a row to sell over a million copies in Japan. Avril has also lived in Japan for a few years, can speak little Japanese, and has multiple clothing line store in Japan. It make sense why Avril made Hello Kitty (and the fact that her directors, producers, etc. are all Japanese while making this vid) because her career wouldn't be as big as she is now without the help of her Japanese fans, hence I doubt she made Hello Kitty out of mockery.

[@Necohime-xh8sx]

私は日本人です。アヴリルの曲はもちろん、日本を好きでいてくれる彼女も大好きです！ 追記 I've been listening to her songs since I was little. For me, each album is a precious memory and a part of my life. 💞 I have and will continue to listen to Avril Lavigne's coolest songs.🌏🥰 （I'm not good at English, so please excuse me if there are any typos.）

[@toujoursjaden]

@@hurting.angels4829 He made a parody video of this song, but was blatantly racist, and mentions Avril’s age throughout the video, probably trying to say “you’re 30 and you’re making these videos?”, except he should be asking himself that since he’s been making racist videos and creepy remarks towards animals and children for years, and there is NO justifying that, even if he says it was “his humor”, there’s rarely clips of him saying “just kidding!” after saying something controversial, creepy, or racist.

[@bruhwhy1739]

People say it's racist because there is a old stereotype that all Asians look the same, and look at the backup dancers that's why.

I love how I stumbled upon this when I was five (or so) when searching up hello kitty, and I found this, and I just started loving Avril Lavigne because of this song. I love her songs, they bring me such joy, nostalgia, and I like to just zone out with it in the background sometimes! Thank you, Avril Lavigne, for being an artist and pop star. You’ve affected my life in such a good way.

[@theharshtruthoutthere]

FREE WILL , whence is it given, whence does it end? GOD created us 1stly in SPIRIT then formed our flesh in our mothers wombs. Free will starts on the day you born here and ends on the day you depart from here. it is not given nor found earlier, as earlier you didn`t exist. earth is testing ground, as it has became lucifers kingdom. testing ground for us, to show GOD whom amongst us shall be deceived by lucifer. All the answers are pretty clear ones - aren´t these? - MANY are deceived and FEW are not. None of us can`t drag free will beyond humans earthly life, as it is not earlier nor after found nor given. Jeremiah 1:5 KJV Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations. FREE WILL is given for the choices which are here on earth to make. Deuteronomy 30:19 I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live: Joshua 24:15 And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD. Since making choices and being deceived takes place here on earth, free will does not go beyond human earthly lives.

Guys. It's not racist in the slightest. 「みなさいこありがとう」(mina saiko arigatou) quite literally translates to "Thanks so much for watching", so it's actually more of the opposite. Also, if she wants to dress like that, so be it. I think she looks great. If you're just here to hate on her because she enjoys another culture, well, you're just shit.

@take off ur pants & quack-it i care about how hes done many pedophilic things towards children and how he used to have a "show" where he had an 8 year old puppet and would talk about sex as if it was a real kid 😊

[@ameliasv222]

yeah. you right. she's appreciating the kawaii culture. if that's racist all weebs would get cancelled.

[@ameliasv222]

@@error_san_ I totally agree. For those who are defending him: Please understand that there is a difference between edgy humour and racism, bestiality and pedofilia. It stops being funny (if it ever was) when he swaps gum with a 15 year old, kisses a 12 year old, touches and talks about his pets and some of his fans (and his 12 year old niece) in a sexual way. He is normalizing pedofilia, bestiality and racism. Making edgy humour out of racism would look more like what Jojo Rabbit did, or like what a lot of shows did back then, making lighthearted fun of racists not POCs (at least not for being POCs). He has never actually apologized for this or even adressed it. Please inform yourself about the person you're trying to defend and the effect he's had.

[@ameliasv222]

@take off ur pants & quack-it I don't think that's how respect works. You clearly aren't respecting this persons opinion to not care about what Shane says about music and racism. And if you are of the opinion that "disrespectful" people don't deserve respect then you shouldn't respect Shane, a person that has disrespected black people by doing blackface and mocking them for being "dumb" and "lazy". A person that has treated mental disorders as a curse that turns people into some sort of automatic dangerous murder machine. Someone that has disrespected children by heavily sexualizing his content towards them and normalizes rape, bestiality and pedofilia. Someone that disrespects his own fans so much he not only feeds them all of this toxic content but doesn't even adress the true concerns people have with his behaviour, and even when he does, he puts no effort into fixing it or changing. Not to mention promises a 9 part series were the three last parts would be a fully transparent look at how much money they've made, the James Charles drama from an insider point of view, etc and then ditches it once he's made the money. Please get your morals straight. Realize that his behaviour is completely toxic. He normalizes things like racism, bestiality, pedofilia (ik I've said it a lot, but he does it a lot). It helped a lot of his fans get groomed into that situation. How would you feel if you were insulted, attacked and discriminated just by the colour of your skin? How would you feel if you were raped? How would you feel if you were molested and taken advantaged of as a child?(or now) What if it happened to your younger sibling? To a friend of yours? Would you still respect him? Would you still be able to call this song racist after defending his "edgy humour"?
