My impact*.

*Paula follows me ~~and the real me~~ on Twitter and idolizes me as a fashion icon.

It's a bit disturbing to me that she can use parts of Indian culture as accessory, but still having the privilege to dress and dance this provoking.

How is that disturbing, especially when Indian stars do the same?

I'm not seeing the contradiction between the two nor the "privilege" in dressing or dancing in a "provoking" manner.

Because those Indian women DO have the oppressions that come with being Indian. This girl can basically decide to be Hindi for one clip, then go back at what she's more comfortable at.

Decide to be Hindi? Hindi is a language, not an ethnicity.

There is no oppression involved with wearing a bindi and wearing a bindi is a fashion, not a life experience. Either way, Paula isn't pretending she's a woman living in a South Asian country.

P.S. Sharing is part of Hindu culture! Should we tell black Jamaicans to stop eating curry, dahl, roti and chutney? Tell white Americans to stop doing yoga?
