Behold, the most controversial music video of the week, courtesy of Canadian pop stalwart Avril Lavigne.

This three-minute promo for her latest single, the dubstep-inflected, Ke$ha-esque Hello Kitty, sees the singer bouncing around various dayglo locations in front of a quartet of bored-looking Asian dancers, with a few clichéd Japanese signifiers thrown in for good measure (kawaii wardrobe, a sushi chef, some Fujifilm Instax product placement).

Online reaction has been swift and damning, with critics slamming the clumsy cultural appropriation and the dubious presentation of the dancers. Entertainment Weekly said it raised "serious questions about whether it's offensive or offensively obvious."

In light of this brouhaha, we'd like to know what other music videos you think are as bad as, or worse than, Hello Kitty.
