Janet Jackson has sparked significant controversy after making claims regarding Kamala Harris's racial identity, declaring that she is 'not Black.' This statement, which Jackson attributed to hearsay, has drawn sharp criticism, including from celebrities like Whoopi Goldberg, who attempted to defend Jackson while also acknowledging the gravity of misinformation. Jackson's representatives have stated that any apology related to the remarks was unauthorized, with one manager claiming he was fired over the backlash. Despite the uproar, Jackson has reportedly stood by her comments, leading to calls for accountability from public figures and fans alike.
