Hey man, I’m still on my Nas shit…..there’s really no point in sugarcoating a word that we all know when we’re reading these articles. Just ask Louis C.K.. Below is Miss Deen’s response to what may possibly (although probably not, let’s be real) be the end of her career in entertainment. From USA Today:
Paula Deen continues to be under fire for admitting use of the n-word.
News broke on Wednesday that the celeb chef made the admission in court depositions involving a lawsuit filed by one her restaurant managers charging discrimination. When asked if she had ever used the n-word, Deen replied, “Yes, of course.” But, she added, “It’s been a very long time.”
Deen has been distancing herself from the remarks. Her lawyer issued a statement immediately saying Deen “does not condone” use of the word.
And today in a new statement, her rep tells USA TODAY that Deen “recounted having used a racial epithet in the past, speaking largely about a time in American history which was quite different than today. She was born 60 years ago when America’s South had schools that were segregated, different bathrooms, different restaurants and Americans rode in different parts of the bus. This is not today. To be clear Ms. Deen does not find acceptable the use of this term under any circumstance by anyone nor condone any form of racism or discrimination. “
