Tori Spelling has sparked a ton of outrage after posting a photo of her 8-year-old daughter, Hattie, dressed as "McQuisha," a character many found to be a stereotypical mockery of "ghetto" black women. Like many folks around the world, Tori and her family are practicing social distancing to prevent the further spread of coronavirus, and it looks like she's found some pretty questionable activities for her kids to do to kill time in quarantine. In a since-deleted Instagram story, the actress shared a photo of Hattie wearing a bandana on her head with Cheetos tied around her fingers—meant to emulate fake nails—and explained the character Hattie was pretending to be.
"Days kept inside we have to get creative," Tori wrote in the caption. "Hattie has become McQuisha in her cheeto extension nails." Yikes. The story garnered a ton of backlash, with many calling Tori out for dressing her daughter up as an offensive caricature of "ghetto" black women and encouraging racist stereotypes.
Tori has since apologized for the post, insisting that she didn't intend to do any harm.
"I posted a story the other day that upset many of you," she wrote on her Instagram story. "I'm truly sorry. That was NOT the intention at ALL. Hattie is 8. We watch and adore old reruns of 'Martin.' She loves the character Shanaynay. She made up that name with "Mc" bc her last name is McDermott. She was reenacting the over the top fun and amazing character from 'Martin.' She is innocent and didn't mean anything by it. I should have thought about how it could have been perceived and misconstrued before I posted. I did not. I'm truly sorry." Social isolation is really making everyone lose their sense.
Freeway Rick Ross Suggests Rick Ross Made A "Mockery" Of His Name
Freeway Rick Ross recounts his past with Rick Ross, once again.
FreewayRick Rossis a legend, not just in the rap game, but in American history. A notorious drug kingpin in the 80s, he was sentenced to life in prison but later appealed to have a shorter sentence and was later released in 2009. He’s a reformed drug dealer, working towards trying to reverse some of the effects that he had during his reign but his identity as a drug dealer inspired several rappers in hip-hop including Rick Ross.
Now, we all know that Freeway Rick Ross isn’t a fan of Rick Ross but the former drug dealer recounted when he first found out about the rapper using his name. He was in jail at the time and got on the phone with Rozay before inviting him to come to discuss their issues at the prison. According to Freeway Rick Ross, Rozay changed his number immediately after and never pulled up for their “friendly conversation.”
“Rick Ross used my whole name, you know, and he probably gained the most stardom out of anybody,” he explained on The Mike & Donny Show. “[Rick Ross] goes on and telling people that he’s never heard of me.”
After explaining that Rick Ross (the rapper) claimed that he got the name from being a football player, Freeway Rick Ross added, “It just make you feel like, ‘what’s with this guy? Why can’t this guy just come out and say, you know, what I am and what I do.’ And then, the way he raps, too, he raps about selling drugs and he never sold drugs. He was a correctional officer, had a credit card in high school, you know? Come from one of those great backgrounds went to college and couldn’t read and write. I’m like, why do you make a mockery of what normal people go through? It’s almost like making a mockery of it.”
