Who is Troye Sivan?
Troye Sivan has established himself as an entertainment industry icon and singer. Troye Sivan began on YouTube and competed in various competitions, which eventually led to him becoming a mainstream singer. Troye is embroiled in yet another controversy after an old video of him using the n-word surfaced on the internet.
Troye Sivan employs the n-word
Troye Sivan used to live stream a lot when he first started making videos for the internet. He did so alongside other YouTubers such as Tyler Oakley.
He used to talk to and sing for his fans and followers during live streams.
He sang ‘Monster’ by Kanye West featuring Jay-Z, Rick Ross, and Nicki Minaj one day.
He was rapping Nicki Minaj’s verse, singing, “That’s how these [n-word] are so one-track minded | But really, really, I don’t give a [expetive] ” However, rather than censoring himself, Sivan used the n-word.
He appears visibly surprised by him saying the word, but he continues to sing.
The live stream with him saying the n-word is about 8-9 years old, but it still goes viral every now and then.
The same thing happened in November 2022, and Sivan’s fans abandoned him.
Reactions of fans
Fans are dissatisfied, as expected, with Sivan’s use of the n-word.
In January 2014, the singer tweeted that the n-word and f-word were abusive slurs and should not be used.
I knew something was wrong with that white tw!nk when I found out Troye Sivan said the n word.
People in the comments, on the other hand, tweeted back at him with a video of him saying the n-word.
Troye Sivan has been dragged into the controversy and labeled a racist every time the video has surfaced since then, and this time is no exception.
Many people were offended that Sivan, another White singer, used the slur.
Similarly, many were disappointed that he continued to sing even after realizing his error.
Regardless, Sivan has a few fans who support him. Their defense includes the fact that the video is very old and that it was an accident.
I’m not even a Troye fan, but:
1. It was clearly an accident
2. He immediately apologized.
3. PopCrave had the AUDACITY to omit the part where he ACTUALLY apologized (see vid below) wbk lmao The ultimate goal of popcrave’s life is to create drama and tear others apart.
Know About:
Similarly, many people have noticed that the entire live stream video is hidden. Sivan apologizes to his audience shortly after the song in the full video.
Despite Sivan’s apology in the live stream years ago, many people are still upset.
They have pointed out that just because the singer apologized for using the slur does not negate the fact that he did.
At the time of writing, Sivan had not responded to the scandal or allegations of racism.
