"Hi hi. I think her intention was to be like… yay a white person disassociating the negative stariotype that is paired with the word ‘weave'…"

She continued apologizing to her fans:

"however I'm so sorry my response was out of pocket or if it came across the wrong way. Thanks for opening the conversation and like… to everyone for talking to me about it.
