The former High School Musical star is coming under serious fire.
When it comes to clothes and style, there are many ideas that can be borrowed or influenced to make an outfit or special look.
As the old adage goes “imitation is the sincerest form of flattery” however there are some lines that shouldn’t be crossed.
Just last week, we saw serial offender Kendall Jenner offend people with wearing a burqa in Dubai, this comes shortly after she was seen wearing dreadlocks at a Marc Jacobs catwalk show.
The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star was accused of cultural appropriation because of her sartorial choices and another celebrity who has struck a chord with her fans is Vanessa Hudgens.
The 27-year-old actress, who has offended people in the past by wearing Native American headresses and bindis, has made many fans furious with her new hairstyle, which consists of box braids.
People are arguing that box braids, a hairstyle that black women have worn for years should not be worn by the American singer. make matters worse, it looks like the braids are a part of a wig which further proves that this hair is not her own.
To make matters worse, in the pictures Vanessa posted to her Snapchat, it looks like the braids are a part of a wig which further proves that this hair is not her own.
Angry fans took to Twitter to accuse the actress and singer of cultural appropriation.
