Shawn Mendes recently apologized for his past racially insensitive tweets after a fan brought them up at a Q&A and now he is doubling down with another apology.
The 21-year-old singer explained to fans that before he was famous, his friends would take his phone and post things that he didn’t approve. Shawn took to his Instagram Stories on late Friday night to share a statement he wrote.
“I posted some racially insensitive comments on social media when I was younger, and I am so sorry. I apologize wholeheartedly for what was said & understand how offensive those posts were. There is no place for comments like that, and those words do not represent who I am. I stand for complete inclusivity, equality, & love,” Shawn said.
