michael-costello-n-word

The beehive recently swarm in on Queen B’s fashion designer who dropped the N-word over Instagram.  Michael Costello is a former  “Project Runway” contestant who dressed many other African American celebrities like Tony Braxton, Ashanti, and Meagan Good.  Costello claim that the post is fake. Check out his statement below.

Michael Costello’s Response to rage below.

“The hurtful screenshot circulating is fake and does not represent my views on society, nor do I condone the use of such a terrible term. It deeply saddens me that an individual would go to such lengths at an attempt to demean and misrepresent my character. My designs are centered on accentuating the inherent and natural beauty found in EVERY woman. My career would not be where it is today without the support of individuals from all walks of life.

We are currently looking into this urgent matter to identify the culprit. At this time, we have reason to believe the fake image was edited and circulated by a disgruntled intern who is no longer employed at Michael Costello. Once the individual is fully identified, we intend to pursue legal action.”
