Rapper and actor Romeo Miller angered fans when he shared an image of his White girlfriend via instagram, prompting a string of comments.
“That face you make when you take a selfie w/your (white) gf and you thinking about all the racist comments that’s bout to be under your comments lol || Naw but really … just trying to show my boo @toneatam the city (since it’s her 1st time), but it’s cold as h—, I swear I’m not crying haha❄️ #NewYorkCity #IDontTakeSocialMediaSerious #JustLive #InterracialDatingIsOk #Its2015 #IJustLoveWomen #BlackOrWhite,” read the caption.
We’re guessing that Master P’s son thought he was being cute by joking about his interracial relationship. Unfortunately for the rapper, his fans were’t feeling it! We’re sure that’s why the 25-year-old later back pedaled and deleted the part where he addressed the obvious, that his girlfriend is Caucasian.
“So #romeomiller edited the original post and deleted the part about posting a pic of his WHITE girlfriend huh … Clearly he was projecting, because HE is the one that’s way too focused on race and is in denial about it,” read one comment.
“I could careless who date who BUT when you’re with a person for the wrong reasons: race, money, gain, attention, fame that’s where the problem is for me,” wrote one fan.
Another commentator wrote, “We see your girl white Romeo. No need to point it out, unless you wanted people to respond to it.”
To view Miller’s original post, hit the flip. In the meantime, what do you think of Miller’s comment? While we agree that he may have been fishing for attention, are people reading too much into his interracial relationship? What happened to love being blind?
