Singer Rihanna
Eva Hoeke The editor-in-chief of a Dutch magazine that published “racist slurs” against pop star Rihanna had resigned. The magazine, Jackie, referred to the Barbados born pop star as "the ultimate
[n-word b***h] in an article about how to dress like a pop star. Following the magazine's release, Rihanna lashed out against Hoeke by Tweeting, "I hope u can read english, because your magazine is a poor representation of the evolution of human rights! I find you disrespectful, and rather desperate!!"
Hoeke had issued an apology ... stating that the reference to Rihanna was meant to be a joke.
Upon her resignation, Hoeke released the following:” "I realize that my first reaction through Twitter, in which I indicated that it was a joke, has been an incomplete description of what me, and also the author of the article meant. The term 'n—abitch' came from America and we solely used it to describe a style of dress. Because of the enormous pressure through social media I was tempted to promise amendment regarding the language in future issues of Jackie.” The statement continued, "Through the course of events, me and the publisher have concluded that my credibility is now affected, it is better for all parties if I quit my function as the editor-in-chief effective immediately."
