About

Petty Skai Jackson / Skai Jackson Sitting is a reaction image based on a photograph of American teen actress Skai Jackson sitting primly on a chair. Upon entering circulation via Twitter in April 2016, the image has been used in combination with dialogues or descriptions of social interactions illustrating common acts of pettiness and pretentiousness driven by perfectionism, particularly within the Black Twitter community.

Origin

On April 4th, 2016, the actress Skai Jackson tweeted a photo of herself waiting in the green room of the New York City Fox affiliate before an appearance on the morning news show Good Day New York.[9] The tweet received 666 retweets and 1,679 likes as of April 19th.[1]

On April 15th, Buzzfeed explained the photo meme in an article.[7] As of April 19th, an image search for the original photo upload confirms thousands of instances on Twitter.[8]

The meme got more spread later in May, after Jackson and rapper Azealia Banks exchanged words on twitter, resulting in Banks receiving a twitter suspension.
