"We don't say that word....So, you know what, I'm going to stay here, and y'all can think I said whatever I did or think I'm something I'm not, but I'm not that.
"We don't say that word....So, you know what, I'm going to stay here, and y'all can think I said whatever I did or think I'm something I'm not, but I'm not that...Look, people are going to want to think whatever they want to think of me, get mad at me, whatever. And even if I did accidentally say it, I'm very sorry, I was singing a song and not even thinking."
While Brown addressed the comments during the Instaram Live, it wasn't enough for Bachelor Nation fans on social media. Fans also pointed out that instead of holding herself accountable for saying the N-word, Brown and the friend she was with chose to throw other people's names in an effort to put the blame on someone else.
"so just watched that "apology" and the friend next to her rly threw out another friend's name and the name of Hannah's brother. like girl wth you were the ONLY visible and audible person in that video," one Twitter user wrote. "honestly sounds like her entire friend circle are comfortable w the n word."
Another user wrote, "I was a big fan of Bachelorette/DWTS Winner Hannah Brown, until she decided to drop a hard N word in a rap song and then smirk and laugh through an "apology". HB, you're done in my book! Now considered irrelevant. @hannahbrown."
