Fan Screams At Red Velvet’s Wendy At Fanmeet Over Past Racism Controversy
In the past fans have shown their disappointment in Red Velvet‘s Wendy because of some comments she made, but she recently encountered one fan who decided to speak out on the subject.
Wendy first encountered problems in 2014 when she appeared on MBC C-Radio‘s Idol True Colors and imitated how she thinks Black women talk.
This was during a portion of the show where the girls were asked to display their individual talents. Afterward, many fans expressed their disappointment in her actions and called her out for being racist.
Unfortunately, Wendy didn’t seem to have learned from that mistake when she appeared on TALKMON earlier this year, as she repeated the same impressions.
This time fans were even more upset about the situation and felt that she hadn’t learned from the past.
Two things that sadden me:
1. The fact that she didn't learn from past events and is once again doing an impression based on stereotypes
2. The fact that some of the people attacking her don't care at all about the real issue & would shield their biases if they were in her place— #Sober (@yulahollic) March 5, 2018
discriminatory and disrespectful. She's coming from a group that excels in the genre of R&B, a genre curated by black people and you'd think she'd know better. The last time this happened, I was just as disappointed but having not heard anything up until now, I gave Wendy-

Do not defend Wendy.
Don't do that.Make her learn from her mistakes. Do not sugarcoat it. Do not twist it. Do not tolerate bad behavior. Please.
