I don’t know how things are in France, maybe something like this isn’t a big deal over there, but in the states you should know you can’t go full blackface without some backlash.
A French soccer player went full-on blackface for an ’80s costume party … and quickly apologized for thinking it was okay.
Antoine Griezmann — a star striker for Spain’s Atletico Madrid — posted a photo and video of himself Sunday in a full-body blackface costume of an NBA All-Star player, ‘fro and all.
As you might imagine, the backlash was fast and furious … and he eventually took down the controversial posts. He also apologized in his native tongue on Twitter, which translates to something like … “I admit this is awkward on my part. If I hurt some people, I apologize.”
