by Site Manager
R&B singer, Sabrina Claudio is apologizing after some of her old racist tweets resurfaced.
“I am deeply sorry for the insensitive words I’ve used,” she wrote in a statement following the social media-driven backlash. “Some of the things you are seeing are true while others aren’t.”
Fans uncovered her old Twitter account, @ODamnYourUgly, before posting screenshots from the page. She received criticism for using the word “ni**a” through that account. Another screenshot from Instagram reportedly finds her using the derogatory phrase “sweaty chonga.”
Sabrina Claudio did not define which of the screenshots were legit, but she apologized for hurting others. “I realize my past ignorance is affecting people I care so much about and I am sorry,” she wrote. “I’ve made mistakes and while I cannot take them back, I will learn from them.”
The news comes after her latest single release, “Don’t Let Me Down” with Khalid.
