A group of Auckland law students are causing a stir with their tongue-in-cheek parody of Robin Thicke's hit song 'Blurred lines'.
They've released a feminist response to Thicke's song which has drawn criticism for "blurring the lines" between consensual and non-consensual sex. The hit's promo video also features topless models.
The parody is part of Auckland University's law revue - a show of 40 skits performed at SkyCity Theatre last week
The song's had almost 300,000 views since it was uploaded to YouTube on Friday night. The video has been removed from YouTube this morning.
