Amber Rose just addressed “every rumor about me” in an epic Insta Story
Amber Rose is not in the mood for gossip. On Thursday, May 24th, the star made that abundantly clear in her Instagram Story, where she addressed several major rumors that she repeatedly hears about herself.
“I’m just going to address every rumor about me…” she wrote in the first slide. “Not like I really give a f-ck to explain sh-t but it gets really annoying and also affects my real life.”
Rose began by addressing talk that she made mean-spirited comments about women in her home city of Philadelphia during a 2017 interview with the podcast Drink Champs. At the time, she made headlines for saying, “I don’t know how I could say this without sounding f-cked up, but a lot of the people where I’m from aren’t traditionally attractive people,” reported the Huffington Post. However, she addressed the comment in the most recent Insta story.
"When I said they weren't 'traditionally attractive' I meant by societies [sic] bullsh-t standards of European beauty. I felt as thought they were more beautiful than I was! I was speaking on colorism."
Rose then discussed the backlash she received for once saying she doesn’t identify as a black woman, even though she’s of mixed-heritage.
"I went to an all black high school and grew up in an all black neighborhood. I did not have the same struggles as the brown skinned girls. So I refuse to act like I did or I do," she clarified.
Rose also opened up about rumors regarding her relationships. She and her ex-husband, rapper Wiz Khalifa, share a five-year-old son named Sebastian, and the star confirmed that they are “very happy coparenting and giving Sebastian the best life possible.”
And while she was on the topic of romance, she got extremely real about rumors of infidelity.
She then ended her story with the most perfect of sign-offs.
As much as we might fantasize about being famous, the reality is that most celebrities deal with an exhausting amount of rumors and negativity — usually from people who don’t even know them. So while Amber Rose should never have to defend herself from trolls and gossip, we’re glad to see her setting the record straight in the most badass, candid way possible. Go, girl!
