“I am thankful for you guys who will give me the chance, and for those of you who won’t just yet, I understand that, too. You have to grow trust for people, especially when someone has hurt you…I’ll be better,” Brown said on Instagram Live.

Brown said the N-word while singing the lyrics to DaBaby’s song “Rockstar,” and was immediately met with backlash.

“I didn’t want it to be the wrong time,” she said, continuing her apology. “I’ve been so concerned with not wanting to be disrespectful in taking up space when the events that are going on and the death of George Floyd is happening and there is so much suffering and anger. I didn’t want to offend anybody. And I may be offending people right now, but I realize that it’s not about the right time. It’s about the right thing. I’m so lucky to have the platform that I have, and I know a lot of people are asking for white people to use their platform and to take accountability.”

Brown released a short apology quickly after the post went viral, which you can read here.

“I owe you all a major apology,” Brown wrote on her story afterward. “There is no excuse and I will not justify what I said. I have ready your messages and seen the hurt I have caused. I own it all. I am terribly sorry and know that whether in public or private, this language is unacceptable. I promise to do better.”

“I don’t think I said that word, but now I’m like… Oh god. I’ve never used that word,” she later said, per E! Online. “I’ve never called anybody that… You can think I’m something that I’m not, but I’m not that.”

Bachelor Star Bekah Martinez reacted to the video on Instagram writing, “How are people still gonna defend CELEBS with SOOO much access to privilege, knowledge, and education saying the N-word. Even if it’s ‘just the lyrics to a song’ … especially when that person had the wherewithal to skip over the F-word lyric first.

“So no, it’s not cool to just sing it along with the lyrics…,” she added. “Especially not on your platform with millions of followers.”
