In a recent interview with the Huffington Post, Skai Jackson claims she only stood up to Azealia amid the rapper tweeting racially charged insults to Zayn Malik because she felt it was the right thing to do.
Unfortunately all Azealia did was then direct racially charged insults to Skai too.
Skai tells the Huffington Post:
My mom has definitely influenced my confidence, because when I was younger in public school, I would always get bullied for little things like being the shortest in my class, being smallest, just really stupid things. And my mom would always tell me, “if someone bullies you, don’t just sit there and let them bully you. Do something about it or tell someone about it.” So I have always taken that on, what my mother said. And I kinda used that with the whole Azealia thing that just happened. I mean, she is a bully, she is an internet troll. So for me, reading all these racial slurs that she was saying to different celebrities in the past couple months — and I’m like the 30th person now — I felt that I just had to voice my opinion because I have dealt with bullies over the internet and in person. I just feel like what she’s doing is not OK.
And they said there’s no way she wrote her own tweets and her mother was the one tweeting for her.
Thank you. She’s 14 years old and capable of speaking up for herself intelligently. Too bad Azealia can’t at 24.
LMAOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
That was crazy to me. A 14 year old isn’t supposed to be capable of tweeting in this day and age and expressing their own opinion? She’s in high school for crying out loud.
Even in this interview she sounds more intelligent and mature than Azealia.
Exactly.
Skai,Zendaya,Amandla,Yara are so mature and wise beyond their years makes me so proud.
Yep!! Black girls rock!!
Azealia deserved the dragging she got. It’s even sweeter that it was a 14 year old who did the Good Lord’s work.
This young lady has a good head on her shoulders.
Azealia is just an angry fool who is jealous of anybody who is successful. But she could have been successful but she decided she would rather troll on Twitter.
Love her.
Proud of you Skai.
