Grande apologised on 22 January for her response to an Instagram comment that criticised a lyric from “7 Rings”.
In the song, she sings: “You like my hair? Gee, just bought it,” to which one follower remarked: “White women talking about their weaves is how we’re gonna solve racism.”
Grande appeared to miss the sarcasm in the comment, and responded: “So much love.”
A screenshot of the singer’s response made the rounds on social media, prompting her to delete it and apologise.
“I think her intention was to be like... yay, a white person dissociating the negative stereotype that is paired with the word ‘weave’,” she wrote. “However I’m so sorry [if] my response was out of comment or if it came across the wrong way,” she said. “Thanks for opening the conversation and like... to everyone for talking to me about it. It’s never my attention to offend anyone.”
