Jourdin Pauline Issues An Apology To The Black Community During Live
Jourdin Pauline recently went live to issue an apology to the Black community following her previous remarks. Back in December, amid her sexual assault accusations against Tylil, she went live and made comments about her preferences, stating, “I don’t like Black men, I like White boys,” while also expressing her dislike for him. The streamer took time on her recent live to address anyone who may have formed a vendetta against her based on those past comments, clarifying her stance and attempting to clear the air.
“We all say things we don’t mean when we’re hurt. I don’t want anyone to ever think that’s something I meant, that’s something I live by, or that’s how I feel. No. I was traumatized, and I was hurt, and I said something that I did not mean, and I shouldn’t have said. I genuinely apologize from the bottom of my heart for those remarks. Black people are phenomenal,” she said.
