Former Big Brother Naija contestant Khloe has issued an apology to both the natural hair community and Nigerians.
This follows a barrage of criticism sparked by her earlier remarks concerning natural hair, where she previously indicated that individuals with natural hair were unwelcome at her events.
Khloe now asserted that this was a result of miscommunication.
Taking to Instagram, Khloe clarified her stance, explaining that her words had been misconstrued.
She mentioned a misunderstanding during her interview that has now become the focal point of the controversy.
Khloe didn’t stop there. She announced plans to pursue legal action against the interviewers, Tolani Badge and Mowat Abebe, accusing them of distorting her words to sensationalize their show.
Expressing frustration with the situation, Khloe highlighted the dangers of media misrepresentation and cautioned her followers about blindly trusting the media.
In her Instagram post, Khloe added further context, admitting to expressing personal opinions on natural hair during the interview but emphasized that these were not serious remarks.
She even requested the interviewers to exclude these comments from the final edit, but they were included, much to her disappointment.
Khloe emphasized her support for the natural hair community, expressing dismay that her positive remarks went unnoticed, overshadowed by the show’s focus on controversy.
Her statement has sparked a debate on media ethics and celebrity portrayal, leaving her followers and critics contemplating whether this was a genuine misunderstanding or a calculated move by the media.
“I support natural hair and I have nothing against it, as have it myself, and so does my sister, mother and majority of my friends. I never spoke negatively about it, I only shared my personal view/ opinion on wearing it every day. In fact, I did praise natural hair, but the show hosts wanted something more controversial for views and at my detriment.
“Even the producer was concerned people would think I was against natural hair, So I suggest we changed topics to avoid causing harm. The producer promised to address the issue later and alter the narrative. One of the hosts complained to the producer that why is she making me conscious of what we were saying, which made me realize the true nature of the show
“Regarding the show and the producers, l’Il be getting back to you, but this time my anger is that I previously stated and pleaded withreceipts) that I no longer want my face on the show and I don’t want to be associated with a particular individual on it, but my requests were overlooked and my consent completely disregards. Ild also be taking actions in this regards.
“I Apologies to my natural hair girlies and community, I didn’t mean to slight or disrespect anyone in anyway.. I advocate for beauty at every standard.. I understand that the show and blogs need to cater to their audience, but I refuse to be used as another punching bag for their malicious and vile strategy/ objectives. I am so sorry. Forgive me Gang.”
