Everyone and anyone has weighed in on Liam Neeson’s recent admission, where he said that he wanted to kill a “black bastard”.
Michelle Rodriguez has apologised for her recent comments made regarding what Liam Neeson said in a controversial interview.
When she was asked about whether she felt the actor was racist, she said:
“Dude, have you watched Widows? His tongue was so far down Viola Davis’s throat. You can’t call him a racist ever. Racists don’t make out with the race that they hate, especially in the way he does with his tongue – so deep down her throat.
“I don’t care how good of an actor you are. It’s all bullshit. Ignore it. He’s not a racist. He’s a loving man. It’s all lies.”
Since then, she has apologised for what she said, saying that in “a pressure-filled situation, she defended her friend the wrong way”.
She did so in a post on her Instagram Story, which you can read in full here:
Before this, comedian Trevor Noah had become the most recent to weigh in on the subject, during a segment of The Daily Show.
