in this story he says that @tcanningzast (whoever it is) pointed that he looks like this emoji, with this tan and purple blouse. he was stupid to post it with this emoji 

like what he was thinking  i mean you should know better in 2021

First of all, why did she at @ herself in the second tweet?  

Second of all, this "apology" is incredibly ignorant and fails to address the real problem. I don't care what it was "meant" to be (which is incredibly suspicious by itself given the fact the dancer posted some problematic posts), I care about the final result, which is not at all good and of very poor taste. I don't understand how the concept of "bad tan" is related to the overall concept of the performance either but I digress.

Camila clearly doesn't understand what she's saying or what the root of the problem is.

If you want bad spray tan you go orange.

When she said that was her family I thought she literally meant it was her family

Wtf is this racist ****?

So is it HER fault that the dancer posted that? No. So leave her alone

“Blackface”? It’s just straight up blackface. Seriously.

In case y’all forgot, this is what happens when you continue to let racists have their platforms. The whole camp didn’t think twice about this not being okay and it’s right at the peak of the comeback… Self played

 this is soooo messy. Given your history girl just stay away from anything concerning race. 

not her song being lowkey a bop tho

THIS is a terrible spray tan:

what she did to her dancer is blackface 

[littlepotter 76,841]

Where did you see an "I'm sorry"? This isn't an apology

As I said in another thread, for better or for worse, she's the visible face, whether she likes it or not. But even if she wasn't the visible face, if I were her and saw a dancer that was standing right next to me using blackface of all things, I would've immediately sent him back for someone to take that thing off asap.

Some ggd people are trying to defend this, too 

 

Like, that's literally straight up blackface

 If you want an orange tan, why not just go the Trump route with it, like, what was the point 

 

And that "apology" might be one of the worst apologies ever, and I'm including US, sh*ne and Laura Lee in that
