Riverdale's Lili Reinhart Apologizes for 'Racially Insensitive' Halloween Costume Joke

quote:

Riverdale star Lili Reinhart has apologized for tweeting a meme of a Halloween costume many of her followers described as blackface.

Reinhart, 21, shared a photo of a girl covered in black paint, seemingly dressed as a demon, on Sunday.

But the actress, who plays Betty Cooper on The CW’s teen-melodrama take on the Archie comics, deleted her post and issued an apology after followers called the image racist.

“I did not mean for my tweet to come off that way. I can see how it was interpreted as being insensitive, completely. I saw the pic on a Halloween Instagram and didn’t think it would be interpreted as being racially insensitive,” she wrote. “I apologize. Never meant any harm. I can see how it could’ve been misinterpreted.”

It is not "racist", but is is a really dumb idea.


Her credit score just dropped by 150 points.

Apologizing for fricked up attempts at humor are worse than the fricked up attempts at humor

For once I wish someone would refuse to apologize and just say that you're being ridiculous and a pussy if youre offended.

Apologizes

This is the problem. Stop apologizing every time someone gets butthurt.

Deleting it was her worse mistake. She should have pointed out that black paint isn't racists.

She should have her assets seized immediately and redistributed to disadvantaged peoples of color. She should also be shipped off to a reeducation camp.
