A WHITE teenager has infuriated the online community by claiming that she's black.

Victoria Waldrip who posts under the moniker @imwoahvicky, has been claiming that a DNA test revealed that she has black heritage - and she is now embracing it wholeheartedly.

However, her antics - which include, twerking, saying the N-word repeatedly, rapping, fighting, messing about with 'guns' and cars and claiming she's pregnant - have seen her accused of insulting black people and black culture.

Furthermore, the 17-year-old has been accused of being racist, mostly due to the way she speaks with a southern drawl that is more typical in black communities in her home city of Atlanta, Georgia.

One fan blasted: "So illiterate wtf like I don’t care if she thinks she’s black but black ppl don’t talk like that, dumbasses talk like that."

Another : "Everybody of the melanin family stupid for even following her! It's BLASPHEMY😒 modern day racism and she getting paid to down grade another culture.

"I rather her paint her face black like white comedians did in the 40s and 50s era.

"Her and that other nuuuutt they made a celebrity over night represent IGNORANCE all for 💰💰... Clearly see she don't have an ounce of melanin in her caucus DNA!"

Vicky has naturally straight dirty blonde hair, which she has recently had styled in to blonde dreadlocks, and has also posted several photos and videos of her wearing gold grills on her teeth.

However, she posted a furious Instagram video claiming that her hair was chemically straightened and that she used irons.

The teen has claimed that she will now celebrate the day she "found out she was black" as her new birthday, but the DNA test from Ancestry.com that revealed she had black heritage has also been at the centre of controversy.

She originally claimed that the test showed her to be 25 percent black, but a photo of the results boosted it to 45 percent.

She said: "My whole entire life my mom kept telling me 'you’re white' and I never believed her because I knew I was black.

"How are you gonna sit here and tell me what race I am? If I say I’m black then I’m black."

On her Instagram page - which has 916,000 followers, she also promotes hair weaves, explaining to a black woman what each type of hair is as she strives to monetise her online infamy.

Vicky's claims echo that of Rachel Dolezal, a former civil rights activist who claimed that she was "trans black" and now goes under the name Nkechi Amare Diall.

It's not only controversial teens who have got Instagram excited - people are obsessed with these new 'Nutella Oreos'.

And THIS is how to make your Instagram feed pay.
