Justin Timberlake News: BET Awards Backlash

The 2016 BET Awards were on lastnight & sure got people talking! Jesse Williams was given the Humanitarian Award. His speech consisted of talking about the sacrafices black women make for their community, police violence, & need for action. The speech brought the audience to their feet & those at home to social media. Unfortunatley JT found himself in some trouble.

All by tweeting at jesse williams "Jesse Williams tho...#inspired #BET2016".
In a response to the tweet "So does this mean you're going to stop appropriating our music and culture? And apologize to Janet too".

Apparently that struck a nerve with Justin, in a final response "Oh, you sweet soul. The more you realize that we are the same, the more we can have a conversation. Bye".

Today, Timberlake tweeted "I apologize to anyone that felt I was out of turn. I have nothing but LOVE FOR YOU & ALL OF US -JT".


Happy Tweeting!
