Or how about that video was just really cool and fun to watch? No need to turn it into some kind of shitty culture debate.

[stushi96]

VSAUCE! :D

[Bill Durrant]

She is British, but she has ancestry and history from her life in places like the Middle East, with good relations!

Often her music (alright.. not this song) expresses cultural or political views.. It's not always offensive, and neither is this song

In fact, it's more of a "big-up" to Saudi, their fashion, equality, anti-racism etc.

[leoazul001]

just little not guys , imorocco isn t really an arab country , u should shoot in golf countries , we r not that conservativ

[xaioxaio11]

Her intentions weren't to offend people from the middle east. I'm pretty sure the point of the video was to show the middle east in a more positive light in a time where the middle east is portrayed as being evil and terrorist-like. To show that these people who are often shown in a negative light aren't too different from us. That they know how to have fun too. Or maybe even as a "Yeah, you think you're wild and crazy? Just look at these people." sort of message.

really? and are Morocco women not expected to be more moderate and conservative? Don't they follow they Quran? the way she dresses in the video with the skin tight pants, no veil, and dancing sexually, it looks like she was trying to be controversial by doing that in a country where Islam is the main religion, and was actually the one that started the "culture debate." Why don't you complain to her about it???

[soyunharlequin]

She didn't. her producers did.

[Jesse Ramirez]

MIA is one of the most Beautiful and talented woman in tha world!

[Savanah Mick]

LOL. She isn't American. Can't you hear that British accent???

[Rodolfo P. Jacinto II]

You know there are "discriminating" and there is the hunch of discrimination which sometimes states they are discriminated even though they're not. You got the second one.

[brooklynlulu]

LOl, I would love to see the part of Brooklyn she is from with that accent ahahaha. she moved here with us :-)
