Terry Crews has issued another public apology to Gabrielle Union.
Union made another round of criticism toward Crews when she appeared on the Spotify podcast "Jemele Hill Is Unbothered" last week. She talked about how Crews failed to support her in her battle against NBC and "America's Got Talent." And now Crews, once again, took to Twitter to apologize to Union.
"This will be my 3rd public apology to Gabrielle Union. If a 4th is needed, I will continue to apologize and push for reconciliation between the world, and more importantly, the culture I grew up in.I'm sorry, @itsgabrielleu #reconciliation," he wrote.
Crews' apology received mixed reactions from the netizens. Some said he should do more than just apologize to Union. Meanwhile, others blamed Union for not understanding other people’s perspective.
"Apologizes without changed behavior is simply manipulation. Fix your mindset and then MAYBE she and/or the rest of the Black community will give a damn about your apologies," Matt Nicholas commented.
"Apologizing won't help unless you truly understand the wrong and really work on trying to do better, so if another situation happens like this, you will know how to handle it by taking the RIGHT path. Keys to relationships are listening and comprehending," @lee_tonio added.
"I appreciate you seeking reconciliation, but really, you have nothing to apologize for. She clearly is not tolerant of other perspectives. You have integrity. I respect that. Keep it up. You've done what you can and there's no need to apologize to her anymore. Much love to you," @justtokenok wrote, voicing support to the "White Chicks" star.
During the podcast, Union was asked about Crews and his recent criticisms toward the Black Lives Matter movement.
“People hit me all day long and are like, what’s happening? And the only thing I know for sure is that Terry Crews gets three checks from NBC. So, I don’t know if being worried about job stability — which listen, we all know that if you speak up about racism and white supremacy, you absolutely can be shown the door.” Union said as quoted by Deadline. “I don’t know if that’s the motivation.”
“Based on his recent actions, do you really think Terry Crews was an ally, was helpful, was a sounding board? I think Terry Crews is showing us who he is and what he does during times of adversity and it’s not solidarity,” she added.
Crews has been subjected to cancel culture following his tweet about Black Lives Matter that didn't sit well with many people. In his controversial tweet, he wrote, "We must ensure #blacklivesmatter doesn’t morph into #blacklivesbetter."
“I wish cancel culture was real so Terry Crews would have been canceled at one of his prior 72 bad takes and we wouldn't end up here,” one commented.
“I honestly ain’t helping y’all cancel nobody anymore until we get terry crews tf outta here!” another wrote.
