Jaden Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith are not accepting Shane Dawson's apology for his previous videos after talking about his behavior on his YouTube account.

Jaden and Jada called out the famous YouTube blogger, recalling a past video where he was sexualizing Willow Smith.

On June 26, Shane posted a video where he apologizes for his behavior, including blackface and inappropriate comments about underage children.

"Blackface was something that I did a lot. Like, I did it a lot on my channel. There’s no excuse for it, there’s literally no excuse," he said. "I made a video six years ago talking about it and I gave excuses. I knew it was wrong, I knew I never wanted to do it again, but I didn’t do the work. I didn’t actually look into the history of it and why it’s so wrong, and why people were so upset."

"I swear on my life, I am not somebody who would ever talk about a child, like in seriousness, I would never talk about a child in any way that is inappropriate," Shane continued. said. "That is disgusting, that is gross, it is not something I would ever do.It is something I did for shock value or because I thought it was funny or, like 'Oh my god, my child molester character,' or whatever. It’s all gross and I promise that is not real, that is not me."

According to US Weekly, in a previous video that recently resurfaced, Shane pretends to masturbate in front of a poster of a then 11-years-old Willow Smith. Entertainment Tonight reports the video was originally released around 2010 and references her single, "Whip My Hair."

The next day, Jada and Jaden called him out on Twitter, stating that they will not be accepting his apology for his antics.

"To Shane Dawson ... I’m done with the excuses," Jade wrote.

"SHANE DAWSON I AM DISGUSTED BY YOU. YOU SEXUALIZING AN 11 YEAR OLD GIRL WHO HAPPENS TO BE MY SISTER!!!!!! IS THE FURTHEST THING FROM FUNNY AND NOT OKAY IN THE SLIGHTEST BIT," Jaden wrote.

"This Man Was Also Doing Black Face On The Regular. As The Youth We Need To Support Creators Who Support Us And Our Morals. This Is Not Okay," he continued.

Shane hasn't posted any videos or messages responding to Jada and Jaden's tweets.
