Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
On ninety seven. Well it's entertainer report. He's on the
Fresh Show. All right, we have tien for like two
quick stories.

Speaker 2 (00:07):
But first, Sierra or Tega has addressed her a dramatic
exit from Love Island after outrage erupted over her past
racist posts, and she says she agrees with production's decision
to give her the boots. So even if you're not watching,
I'm sure you've seen all this unfold online. And in
a linky video and a written statement she shared on
Instagram yesterday, Sierra said that she's went back home for

(00:28):
forty eight hours and is ready to address herself very
naively using an incredibly offensive and derogatory term. First and foremost,
she apologizes to the Asian community and all who she
has offended, adding I had no idea that word held
so much pain and harm and came with the history
that it did, or I never would have used it.
And while she said she had no ill intent when

(00:49):
using the term, she concedes that there's absolutely no excuse
because intent doesn't excuse ignorance. Now I liked her apology here,
there were just two interesting things for me. First of all,
I think she sped up the video in her apology,
and I don't know if it's because she spoke slow
and wanted to hit every point.

Speaker 1 (01:08):
But it seemed oddly sped up. So that was the
first thing I noticed.

Speaker 2 (01:11):
And the second thing is that she said, there's a
lot of time Sam's going around as to when she
used it. She said, she used it. There's been two
and the last time was in twenty twenty four. She
used it on a story, and she actually showed us
a conversation where somebody called her out said you can't
use that word, and they had a really great conversation,
and she said it was then and there I took
it out of my vocabulary. So someone must have taken

(01:31):
this video from her story and chosen when to use it,
which I think is interesting. But she did have receipts
from where she said, Okay, I'm not going to use
that word. It was a good dialogue, So I thought
two things were very interesting.

Speaker 1 (01:42):
But she was booted.

Speaker 2 (01:43):
They have no tolerance for that, and I agree with
their decision. Moving on to something that I heard that
you guys have to hear because I didn't want to
hear it. I didn't ask for this, but Jojo Siwa
covered Betty Davis Eyes by Kim Carnes.

Speaker 1 (01:55):
I believe, and she's she's trying to be like Miley's irist.

Speaker 3 (02:00):
I think, just what.

Speaker 1 (02:15):
It hurts. It sounds like it hurts. Yeah, Like is
everything okay? Yeah? I don't know why she covered it.
She had a wig on. There's a lot going on,
but clear, clear throat, baby, and.

Speaker 4 (02:25):
If you missed anything, I know, clear it at me
next time. No, he said, it sounds like some radio people.

Speaker 2 (02:36):
No, you don't.

Speaker 1 (02:37):
You don't have you missed any part of whatever the
hell this is and you want to catch up, don't
