Dee Nguyen Racist Comments – Dee Nguyen Racist Tweet
Dee Nguyen was fired from MTV’s The Challenge after she made offensive comments about the Black Lives Matter movement on social media.
In a since-deleted tweet, Nguyen said: “Idk why some of u think I’m anti-BLM. I’ve been saying that since the day I lost my virginity.” On Instagram, she was criticized for continuing to post pictures of herself after posting a black square for #BlackoutTuesday. In response to the criticism, she said, “People die every f—ing day.”
In a statement, MTV’s The Challenge said, “As a result of Dee Nguyen’s offensive comments on the Black Lives Matter movement, we have severed ties with her. Out of respect for our Challengers, we’ll air our season as planned. We strongly condemn systemic racism and stand with those raising their voices against injustice. We stand united against racism and urge you to join us in taking action to end racism, discrimination, and systemic violence.”
On Sunday, June 7, Nguyen apologized on Twitter: “I am sorry for the insensitive tweet I posted earlier. I was being defensive and not speaking from my heart. But there’s no excuse. I also want to extend an apology to Bayleigh and Swaggy- who are my cast mates and deserve my respect and compassion.”
Nguyen also released a statement saying, “The last 24hrs have made me realised [sic] what is important and that is forgiveness,” she wrote. “I would like to offer my sincerest apology to my colleagues to whom I have hurt directly and indirectly due to my insensitive remarks. Let me be clear I am a POC that cares about BLM. I believe in this movement and I’m stepping away from social media to focus on my wellbeing and mental health. This is not a goodbye, it’s a I will see you again.”
