This casting call just dropped into my mailbox. It's for an untitled music video and appears to be looking for white guys to play "Samurai Guys," an Asian man to model for the makeup test, and females of all ethnicities to play sexy dancer types. Check it out:

Let me get this straight. They're looking for a bunch of white guys to play fake Asian samurai guys, but when it comes to actual Asian men, they just want an Asian face for a few hours to test the makeup -- presumably, the yellowface makeup they're going to use for the white samurai.

Meanwhile, they need a bunch of hot, multiethnic ladies to dance around and adorn the video with some color. Ridiculous. (Thanks, Douglas.)
