Default MTV sever ties with Dee Nguyen following offensive BLM comments

Quote:





Nguyen’s costar on The Challenge: Total Madness, Tula “Big T” Fazakerley, also spoke up about Nguyen’s comments in an Instagram story on June 7. In a series of messages, she said she wasn’t surprised by Nguyen’s tweets about BLM since the two had “a slightly uncomfortable conversation” in Prague during the filming of the current season. Big T said that Nguyen “definitely needs to be educated” and hopes that the Australian reality star learns from her mistakes.

She also said: “I hope she realizes the reality of the situation which is, how many people she’s hurt by her words. Me included. The tweet is not funny, it is disrespectful, utterly degrading and wholly insensitive.” She explained the conversation in Prague that made her uncomfortable:

[Nguyen] said that she felt like she was ‘blacker’ than me because I didn’t know the name of a musician and because she hadn’t seen me fight and be aggressive. I felt like she was trying to make me fit her idea of a ‘stereotype.’ I’m mad at myself for not telling her how that made me feel afterwards and at that time.

I’m saying something now because I really think she needs someone to educate her and help change her attitudes regarding this. After seeing her tweets it just infuriated me even more and felt like I should be honest about my experience.
