Tinashe Says Her Colorism Comments Were Taken Out Of Context

Tinashe is defending herself!
As you may have seen, the 24-year-old singer became a trending topic on Tuesday morning after making comments about “trying to find balance as a mixed woman” because of the “colorism involved in the black community” in an interview with The Guardian.
After receiving a lot of heat online, the 2 On songstress didn’t make an official comment — but began replying to Twitter users explaining that her interview was “taken out of context.”

I was not talking about colorism in the industry. This is taken out of context.

No. that’s not what I was saying.

The article framed it as such, about success in music, where as the conversation we had was about my experiences growing up in general.
