”It Was A Poor Choice of Words…”
Laili Ali candidly told an interviewer recently what she thought of Kanye West and Kim Kardashian naming their child “North West.” The star athlete called the name “stupid,” but it looks like she regrets being so harsh. She clarified her statement in a following interview. “Okay, I was recently at a charity event and I was asked my opinion on some of these non-traditional and creative names and I was speaking very candidly and honestly as I always do,” she explained during a radio interview with Egypt. “And you know, as a parent, knowing how cruel the world is and the bullying, and you know, kids have to grow up and get a job one day, I did say that I think some of these name choices are stupid. I do realize that it was a poor choice of words, you know, and it wasn’t to single out Kim or Kanye. I actually mentioned a bunch of names, not just the name North. It was a general opinion to a question that I was asked, but it doesn’t matter. I do realize and I take responsibility for it. I have no problem doing that. It was a poor choice of words that I used.” “You know I actually reached out to Kim and Kanye to apologize,” she added. |
