Nick Lachey Gave A Not-Great Response To Claims That "Love Is Blind" Edits Out Black Women
- Oops!Something went wrong.Please try again later.
Nick Lachey responded to Love Is Blind alum Lauren Speed-Hamilton's claim that the show is "cutting out" Black women.
Last month, Lauren took to Twitter to claim there was a discrepancy between the number of Black women shown in promotional material for the show vs. the number who made it to the final cut:
I don’t like how LIB be cutting all the black women. How come they are always in the trailer but not the show… 👀
She then asserted that "about 85%" of the couples were "forced" anyway, meaning that more Black women could have easily been selected to progress in the show:
I know it’s slim pickings but about 85% of them couples be forced (just moving forward for entertainment purposes) anyway. Y’all could at least force some more sisters to move forward throughout the show. 🤷🏾♀️
And pointed out that some couples who got engaged on the show were never televised — which, as we know from Seasons 1 and 2, is very much true:
It’s couples that get engaged that aren’t even shown sometimes. I think they only show what they deem most entertaining. https://t.co/sKrYsKMItZ
