I think she was teasing.
Many people truly believe that most whites are inherently void of "soul" and are analytical and articulate rather than "hip" and "rhythmic." Whatever the case may be, that is an insult.
There is no excuse for the use of phrases like "white men can't jump" or "white people can't dance." If people excuse phrases like that then they are subconsciously excusing the belief that nonwhites (usually blacks) are inherently nonanalytical and nonarticulate, but are damn good dancers who sure know how to entertain.
