Usually, we see Siraj Hashmi putting people on his list of those who need their iPhones taken away, but this caught his eye first. We’re not sure if the young woman was going for the Justin Trudeau look or the Ralph Northam, but we’re sure there’s a deep message in all this, and that message is: blackface is always cringeworthy.

I’ve seen a lot of performative virtue signaling done on social media in the last few days. This has to be, by far, one of the worst things I’ve seen.

This can't be real.
— JERRY DUNLEAVY (@JerryDunleavy) June 2, 2020
I’m in awe. Trudeau would be proud.

This is truly the saddest thing I've ever seen.
I couldn't stop cringing.

I hope people realize she's still a child and give some grace. I can only imagine the comments.

That super-subtle nod to racism they did on “Star Trek”?
Is this @governorva's daughter?

So is blackface back in?
— Charles Quilter (@NoleafcloverWoW) June 2, 2020
I think this is more of a half-face.

I thought blackface was bad? Is this OK because it's only half the face?
— #NeverTrump Meredith (@Mermaz) June 2, 2020
All I see is a white girl in blackface

Half blackface.
Never go full blackface.— Ted E. Bear (@BewareoftheBear) June 2, 2020
Wow. So we’re doing blackface now? Not me.

What you don't realize is that the real make-up is on the left side of her face and she's simply removing it with cold cream on the right side.
Mind blown!

That maybe the greatest "look at me" social media post I've ever seen. Top 5 for sure.
— Matthew Hansen (@Matty_Swanson) June 2, 2020
She probably spent a lot of time planning this content, picking out the makeup and hairstyle, doing the video, editing the video and never stopped for a second to think “hey, maybe this isn’t the best idea.”

She did only half the job. @GovernorVA would have finished!

She's half-canceled.

According to her response, the teen girl is European and says she’s sorry and she’s never heard of blackface. So what are Trudeau’s and Northam’s excuses?
