...oh goodness. I knew he'd said some other incendiary things in old tweets from 2012, but I hadn't seen that one. Yikes

^TMZ is actually almost always reliable, even though they’re complete paparazzi. They often wind up reporting on major news before anyone else, incl. things like the death of Kobe Bryant.
Morgan Wallen sucks...tremendously.

I meant I thought people usually avoided/ignored TMZ because of the paparazzi angle.

Margo Price being slower than stan Twitter despite being avid Twitter user is something else. Also that sign on SNL has nothing related to 'that sign'.
Never surprised Morgan Wallen is racist.

I’m kinda sick of this Margo Price gal and others who just try to be negative and cancel people all day long...
Luke seems like a great guy and digging up a 9-year-old Tweet where he quotes someone is just rude. People say stuff they regret. Big whoop!

Luke Combs plays a guitar with a confederate flag and Morgan Wallen publicly screams the n-slur + goes barhopping/makes out with random people on camera in the middle of a pandemic...but you’re mad at Margo Price? Collect yourself.

I’m getting a little tired of you apologizing saying I’ll be better....and then do it again so quickly. Be better, or be this guy. Either way. Just own it.

Collect yourself. I’m not mad at Margo...I am just so sick of the negativity and cancelling of other people! Yeah...Morgan has made many stupid mistakes and yeah Luke has made mistakes but we all do! Sorry I am just so pissed at how the world is going right now, my Grandpa died last year, my dog died last year and I just want some sense of love and unity in America! The confederate flag is wrong, the n-word is BEYOND wrong. IDK, it is just a really sad time in America and I am crying because I really love Luke and enjoy Morgan!

I'm not a particular fan of that part of Twitter culture either, but I feel that it should just be common sense for someone not to say something so diminishing to an entire race of people on a public medium. Being comfortable enough to say what Luke said, even just as a quote of someone else, warrants a closer look imo.

I’m sorry for your personal losses; I can only imagine how tough and overwhelming your world must feel. And I wish you a peaceful grieving process. The state of affairs in the world, and especially in the US right now, is very volatile and tough to grapple with. Love and unity are, of course, important. But...we as a collective have to find a way to balance holding love and unity, and forcing accountability upon those who’ve behaved against love and unity. In this case, that’d be Morgan Wallen (again) and Luke Combs (again). It’s never fun watching anyone, especially our favorite artists, show negative colors they possess, but if we want a more peaceful union, we’ve got to call out racist behavior. Again, I’m sorry you’re dealing with such a heavy load right now. My inbox is open if you ever need a sounding board, or someone to talk to. Sending warm wishes.

Dolly Parton is an icon, a legend, and she will always be THE Moment and a national treasure, and it's because of things like this. Lord bless her mightily. Oh and she just updated "9 to 5" and called it "5 to 9" and the lyrics are classic Dolly. That's a misleading title. They are making it sound like she only declined BECAUSE it was offered by Trump. It wouldn't had mattered who was President the last four years.

I love Morgan Wallen so this makes me sad. </3
I feel like he may be alcoholic and struggle with his mental health (i.e. depression and the like) based on the trend I've been seeing with him and I really hope that he can get help and better himself and do it soon before things get any worse.

He'll be going to rehab and take some time to work on himself. He'll come out of that and many in the industry will trip over themselves giving him praise for doing so and say what a changed man he is. The final stop on the redemption tour will be an invitation to join the Opry. 🙄
In all seriousness though, I do hope the first thing happens because it's pretty evident that there's much more going on here than just a couple nights out with some buddies.

Sorry but him possibly being an alcoholic or having mental health issues isn’t an excuse. Alcoholism and mental illness doesn’t make one yell racial slurs at strangers. That’s so disrespectful to the millions of people who struggle with alcoholism and mental illness and still manage to be good humans. He’s a just racist. Plain and simple. Hope he gets help but he’s shown himself as a garbage human over and over again. If only country radio would give women his airtime instead.

It will be interesting to see who in the country music industry comes to his defense and who "cancels" him or calls him out. I'm already seeing backlash from some country singers on Twitter. You should see Mickey Guyton's Twitter.
I'll be grabbing my popcorn.

Morgan needs to get himself together quick. The excessive drinking and obnoxious behavior has been making him look pretty pathetic for a while now, but this adds a whole new layer. He can apologize all he wants (and I’m not someone who thinks celebrities owe random people on the internet apologies), but a word like that doesn’t just slip out unless it’s fairly entrenched in your vocabulary. I know he just released a massive album, but he needs to take advantage of this time that touring is dead to slip away and do some work on himself, otherwise he’s going to flame out pretty quick.

I think he already did the “i’m going back to the country to regroup” after the SNL f’up and his team pushed an article to People about being an new dad after the vomit pics so we’ll see what they do now. I presume rehab and acting like everything’s solved after that.

Wow, they are really making a move this time? Good news. His songs were removed in Hot Country on Spotify also.

He was on top of the world and just threw it all away for...what? Morgan's career better be over for good otherwise it'll teach people they can get away with it.
He needs to go away, forever.

Going to be honest, not really here for the female country singer take of "well if a woman did this stuff they'd get dropped". I mean it's true...but the response to someone being a racist shouldn't be to point out misogyny. Call out the racism.

Wow.
I mean, we all make mistakes - but you need to learn from them and grow and he clearly has not.
I hate seeing someone cancelled, but the world has enough hate in it...and there is no place for the stuff he has continued to do these past few months.
Clearly, he cannot handle his alcohol, and he has a bad circle around him.
I wish him the best, but maybe he cannot handle the fame and it's time to be invisible for a long while and grow up.
