Singer Katy Perry has courted criticism for a racially insensitive comment involving her hair and former US President Barack Obama.
Perry took to Instagram Live last week, and when one fan expressed missing her dark hair, Perry made a joke, reports eonline. com.
"Oh, someone says, 'I miss your old black hair'.
Oh, really?
Do you miss Barack Obama as well?
Oh, OK.
Times change.
Bye!
See you guys later, " Perry replied.
She then started laughing before turning around to see her friends' reactions.
"I should leave now, " Perry said as someone off camera can be heard telling the singer: "You're cut off. "
Fans were quick enough to tag Perry's comments offensive and described it as a "tasteless attempt at humour".
