LOL–“What is…cultural appropriation Alex?” Well there’s been a lot in the news lately and it’s a stretch but understandable that this man got his cross hairs all mixed up. But the net is simultaenously shaking it’s head and* laughing out loud because Jeopardy Contestant Confuses Iggy Azalea with Azealia Banks. Sidebar: why was this even a question???
After becoming the one known by the headline Jeopardy Contestant Confuses Iggy Azalea with Azealia Banks, Nicholas Berube has tried to address his small but caught on tape error which sent a flurry of comments and emojis across the web. In the aftermath he created a Twitter account just to apologize to Banks, jokingly ending the tweet by saying he’s “sorry for messing up the internet” LOL. The situation at hand was pretty simple and straightforward:
The prompt was, “This Australian hip-hopper used the pet name/street name system to come up with her rap name.”
LOL but still Jeopardy Contestant Confuses Iggy Azalea with Azealia Banks. Let’s hope neither was watching but hey, the internet was so it does’t even matter. Nicholas started out his tweet by letting Banks know he “actually thinks she’s awesome” and that he’s new to Twitter but just wanted to say he’s sorry for being that guy. Awww, well that’s sincere–he could’ve not cared at all or even shi**ed on her and shrugged it off… No word on a Banks rebuttal but one may take this as a reinforcement of her “culture smudging” argument or even her “white identities” theory, that has clapped at everyone from Iggy and Action Bronson to Kendrick Lamar.
Or nah??? LOL, check the vid and the gallery for the tweets.
