Julianne Hough Regrets Her Racist Halloween Costume Idea
2013.10.29
These pics of Julianne Hough attending a Halloween party during the weekend has exploded all over the internet, mainly because the actress decided that going blackface was necessary in order to complete her 'Crazy Eyes from OITNB' costume.
Obviously, not many people appreciated her stunt. Hough has since taken to Twitter to express how sorry she was for ever thinking this was a good idea:
I am a huge fan of the show Orange is the New black, actress Uzo Aduba, and the character she has created. It certainly was never my intention to be disrespectful or demeaning to anyone in any way. I realize my costume hurt and offended people and I truly apologize.
And for those of you who have no clue why "blackface" is such a big deal, lets just say it has historically been used to disrespect and demean black people for centuries. More Articles
