Like many stars before her, hit pop singer Camila Cabello is now being forced to address some controversial social media posts from her past. On Wednesday, Cabello turned to Twitter to post a lengthy apology note for formally using racist language on Tumblr. Cabello insists that by growing up and maturing, she’s now aware of the hurtful impact her words can have, according to Fox News.
The posts in question were shared by Cabello on Tumblr seven years, when the now 22-year-old singer was still in her teens. Although the posts have since been deleted, social media users screenshotted the posts and shared them online. Thus, the singer had no choice but to acknowledge the language she used and publicly apologize. In the note she included on Twitter, the singer explained that she deeply regretted having caused offense to anyone through the words she used and wished she could take them back.
