N3on Speaks Out Over His Past Comments
On Friday, July 25, The Shade Room obtained an exclusive video of N3on setting the record straight in an apology video, saying he’s taking full accountability for his past. He said, “That is not the person that I am, and I want to apologize and take accountability and tell you that’s not okay.”
N3on continued by confessing that when he first started YouTube and streaming in his early teen years, his channel wasn’t getting much attention. That was until he started popping off with wild comments about other people, particularly Black folks. He admitted to playing up the controversy just to rack up his views, even if it meant saying stuff he didn’t really believe.
But N3on assured he’s changed his ways now. N3on said looking back at those old clips got his stomach turning.
“I’m looking at them, I’m like, ‘Wow.’ It makes my stomach hurt. How can I sit there and say those things. How can I have done those things? And, knowing that people see that. Knowing that my family sees that. These past 9 to 10 months, my entire content has changed.”
He swears his content has changed for the past 9-10 months now, and he’s hoping to leave the old drama behind. See his video below…
Jess Hilarious Doubles Down, Saying She’s Not Apologizing
N3on’s video came shortly after Jess stood ten toes down. On Thursday, July 24, she took to Instagram to shut down the noise surrounding the viral interview with her guest. “So, a lot of y’all are still waiting for me to apologize to this motherf*****, and it ain’t going to happen,” she declared in a voiceover, while backstage footage of N3on at the radio show played. Jess spilled all the tea, explaining how N3on reached out to Charlamagne Tha God for a platform to share a “big announcement.”
“I don’t like interviews, but I’m trying to get better, so I did my research,” Jess Hilarious said. What N3on thought would be a chill promo sesh turned into what some deemed an interrogation. Jess confronted him about his past clips, including one where he called a Black woman a “monkey” during a stream. The montage of his problematic moments kept rolling, showing N3on’s history of controversial comments about Black people. Jess wasn’t here for the excuses. When a clip showed N3on looking shook post-interview, it was clear he wasn’t ready for the smoke. Jess stood firm, saying his “little feelings were hurt.” But she’s not losing sleep over it.
