Tokyo Jetz took to Instagram crying a river in an effort to calm the mob.

The caption on the video read:

I’m sorry, I messed up big time. Nothing excuses what I’ve said and done, but I do really want everyone to know I’m not proud of it and sincerely apologize.

Of all the things she could have said she referenced the murder of a black man as joke.

Did she feel bad after she said it or after she got dragged? Is she sincere or were these tears and social media apology orchestrated by her PR team?

Here’s some advice… keep George Floyd’s name out of your mouth unless you’re demanding justice for him.
