The bigger issue is BBC who CHOSE not to edit a prerecorded cerimony, altho they edited out some jokes or speeches
🛑🤗Give it to him as he has wanted, the attention put on his disease and illness. He has put a whole "new look" into it and for all the wrong reasons of curiosity. At lease he will show that he has a grown up mind and hopefully he will apologize correctly. Yes, there is a correct way😮.
Still waiting for people to demand apologies for all the ableism he's faced from trash corners of the internet.
What is to stop him from using the N-word when he talks to them directly?
During the apology he will them a N**GER again…(Insert Curb Your Enthusiasm Theme)!!
So what happens if he drops the N word in his direct apology?
