The 23-year-old singer reacted to the resurfaced Tumblr posts, which featured offensive memes and comments, in a"I want to be very clear about what I'm going to say on this uncomfortable subject and figured it would be best to write out my thoughts to avoid being misconstrued, as I have been in the past," Normani wrote in an email to the magazine.
"When I was younger, I used language that I'm deeply ashamed of and will regret forever," she wrote on social media."I was uneducated and ignorant and once I became aware of the history and the weight and the true meaning behind this horrible and hurtful language, I was deeply embarrassed I ever used it. I apologized then and I apologize now. I would never intentionally hurt anyone and I regret it from the bottom of my heart.
The"Havana" artist then claimed she's"grown and learned and am conscious and aware of the history and the pain it carries in a way I wasn't before." "Those mistakes don't represent the person I am or a person I've ever been," she added."I only stand and have ever stood for love and inclusivity and my heart has never, even then, had any ounce of hate of divisiveness. The truth is I was embarrassingly ignorant and unaware. I use my platform to speak out about injustice and inequality and I'll continue doing that.
Normen: Normani, is a hater her five minutes of fame are gone she’s wants to stay notice.. she forgot how ugly they were with Camila in Fh.
The article say that it took days for her to acknowledge what she(nomani) was going through online, THEN years to take responsibilities for the offensive tweets” Normani is talking about how she was treated by C during her time in 5H: not just about the recent racist tweets
Team Camila!
So some of y'all mad that she answered a question she was asked Y'all goofy. Plus, you're a fool if you believe that 14 yr olds don't understand racism and how words/actions can hurt someone. If she's a changed woman at 22, cool. But she ONLY apologized because she got caught
Didn’t they throw a fake Camilla off stage during the VMA’s?
So .. this girl was 14 when she put out these posts? My god people she was a child. She clearly understands the gravity now, at a still her young age.
Who? And who? IDGI
The Becky's saying Normani is not relevant.....are you guys ok
Normani who?! Riding with camila story!!! This is shameful.... making herself relevant!
People went as far as to find her dumb teenage tweets to find offensive things she said and her ex bandmate is talking about it. I guess Camilla is doing great.
Shade from a has been. Why are you interviewing someone who is no longer relevant? Wast of time!
so she should apologize to Normani first?
And Camilla doesn’t have the talent that Normani has, that’s a fact! Keep going Normani !!!
I know how you feel girl🙄
HOW ABOUT NORMANI PERIOD!!! she does not need all that introducing
