Kanye West tearfully apologizes for his slavery comment! (Video)
When Kanye West (41) went on TMZ and said those words he uttered about slavery, "When you hear about slavery for 400 years—for 400 years? That sounds like a choice", these words to be exact, the star was fired with so much hatred that he even mentioned in one of his interviews that he thought his wife, Kim Kardashian, was going to leave him because of the comment he just made! Well, seems like he is apologetic now and wants to regain the love! This is what he said in his interview with WGCI!
"I don't know if I properly apologized for how that slave comment made people feel, so I want to take this moment right now to say that I'm sorry for hurting."
