Former ‘Nsync singer Lance Bass said Vanderpump Rules star Jax Taylor isn’t racist after some fans call for him to be fired. Taylors previous racist comments resurfaced after his co-stars–stars Stassi Schroeder, Kristen Doute, Max Boyens and Brett Caprioni–were fired by Bravo on June 9.
The following day, former 90 Day Fiance star Ashley Martson called for Taylor to be dismissed, posting screenshots of the Vanderpump Rules star saying husband Jay Smith–a native of Jamaica–had a large nose in 2018. In a tweet from 2017, Taylor also alleged former co-star Faith Stowers had committed a crime.
“I do not think Jax Taylor is a racist or a homophobe and I have said that millions of times,” Bass said on his podcast on June 17, as noted by Us Weekly. “I would not be acquaintances with someone if I thought you were a flat out racist or homophobe. It doesn’t make sense.”
Michael “Turkey” Turchin, who married Bass in 2014, recounted Bass having a conversation with Taylor about Smiths nose, explaining that the comment had connections to racism.
“You said the comment you made about the nose… That’s not OK,” Turchin remembered, according to Us Weekly. “Lance said, ‘I don’t think you’re racist. I don’t think you said that with the intent of being racist… but what you said is racist and you have to understand you can’t just promote these racist things.’”
“If you don’t know that at this point … that’s just your ignorance,” Bass added.
Did y’all see bravo fired four cast members? Well @bravotv don’t leave out old Jax Taylor who harassed us when our show first aired.
