AGT host, Terry Crews recently spoke out on the claims that surrounded the toxic work culture on America’s Got Talent. And, after receiving a large amount of online backlash for his insensitive way of handling the investigation, he later apologized in a Twitter thread. Directed at Gabrielle Union, who first reported the show’s practices to NBC, Crews expressed his ‘respect’ and empathy towards her. Read the full Twitter thread below.

I hear you, I respect you and understand you. I am sorry and I am here to support you. I spoke from my own personal point of view without first taking into consideration someone else’s experience.

I allowed disrespectful comments directed at me and my family to cause me to react angrily instead of responding thoughtfully. This certainly caused more harm, and it is my hope that I can amend any pain I have caused to those who were hurt by my words.

@itsgabrielleu, I want you to know it was never my intention to invalidate your experience— but that is what I did. I apologize. You have been through a lot in this business, and with that I empathize with the struggle toward fairness and equality in the workplace.
