Another youtuber has been exposed for being a racist — color us surprised! This time around, Laura Lee, a beauty vlogger with over 5 million subscribers has been exposed over racist tweets she made in 2012.

Not just racist, but also body-shaming tweets. With so many supporters, this was NOT a good look for Laura Lee. Folks began to bombard the 29-year-old with questions on twitter and at first, instead of addressing it, she deactivated her account for a while…

okay I never talk about stuff like this on here but I guess I wanted to vent. It’s honestly not that surprising that after Laura Lee’s old racist tweets surfaced she decided to deactivate her account instead of apologizing. I’m unstanning but I never stanned in the first place. pic.twitter.com/yYyTlxZXuU

Laura Lee did return to Youtube however, first with a make-up tutorial. Her silence on the racist tweets really pissed-off fans and she lost over 130,000 subscribers on Youtube in one day. This kinda forced her to address things…and we got this tearful, runny nosed apology here:

“Six years ago I decided to retweet things that were so vile and hurtful …I have no excuses. I’m only here to say I’m sorry. I can’t even look at myself.”

Are you convinced???
