Rihanna and T.I. React to Keaton Jones Controversy


Earlier this week celebrities reached out to bullied Tennessee teen Keaton Jones who went viral after his mother, Kimberly Jones, uploaded video of him crying about being bullied only to be exposed as virulent racists [click here if you missed that].

Rihanna and T.I. react to the latest revelations...

While T.I. addresses the situation directly hoping compassion will combat Keaton's upbringing, Rihanna simply deleted her post about Keaton altogether and replaced it with children of color who suffered far worse and received much less attention. Cardi B, Snoop Dogg, Plies and Kirk Franklin's posts about Keaton remain online and they have not addresses the issue.

Meanwhile the GoFundMe account for Keaton has been suspended after reaching $60k.

Ok... So it seems as though we were somewhat mislead by what we saw yesterday in regards to Keaton. Now while I still stand by initial standpoint whole heartedly,I also believe in the laws of karma & reciprocity. I've always heard "What make ya laugh'll make ya cry." I'm thinkin this is a true example of that. But I STILL support Lil dude... even IF he's truly being given a taste of his own meds because when it's all said & done... while his family is spewing hatred around him... he himself will be able to speak from experience how much LOVE was shown to him on the gram by the very ones he's been taught to DISPISE!!! That's how we unlearn racism. THAT DONT MEAN GO DONATE NO MONEY THO!!!! I'm completely against ALL THATπŸ™…πŸ½‍♂️!!!!✊🏻✊🏽✊🏾✊🏼✊🏿
