On Saturday night, actress Gina Rodriguez hit the red carpet with husband Joe Locicero for the Baby2Baby Gala presented by Paul Mitchell. Eonline reports that this was Gina’s first appearance since receiving backlash last October for saying the n-word while singing to Ready or Not by the Fugees and Lauryn Hill.
After people called her out for her indiscretion, she released an apology over Instagram Story, saying, “I am sorry if I offended anyone.”
In a more detailed apology later, she wrote, “In song or in real life, the words that I spoke should not have been spoken. I thoughtlessly sang along to the lyrics of a favourite song, and even worse, I posted it.”
However, just two days ago, the 35-year-old actress posted a photo to Instagram for the first time since the backlash. “Love from Oregon,” she shared, along with a selfie of her and her husband.
