Joining Camila onstage were several dancers, who were all dressed in \u201880s costumes to mirror the theme of the new song\u2019s music video. Take a look at the performance (below):<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=UYpPkPKAV7s\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=UYpPkPKAV7s<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related: Camila Cabello Celebrates Her \u2018Curves, Cellulite, &amp; Stretch Marks\u2019 In TikTok Video<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>However, some <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">social media<\/a> users soon noticed that one of her dancers\u2019 wore extremely dark stage makeup and soon accused the singer of using blackface in her performance. In response to the tweets, Cabello took to <strong>Twitter<\/strong> to post a note app apology in a thread that initially promoted the performance, and her team as a place of \u201ckindness, joy, and love.\u201d The former <strong>Fifth Harmony<\/strong> member wrote alongside a picture of the dancer backstage:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cSo, this dude was just supposed to be a white man with a terrible spray tan. We purposefully tried to pull together a multicultural group of performers, the expectation was not that everyone in the performance needed to be Latin. There are white people, African American people, Latin people, etc. and so the point wasn\u2019t to try to make everyone look Latin either. There are a lot of people in the performance who are not.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Camila ended the message, saying:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cThe point was to try to make each person look like an over-the-top 80\u2019s character just like in the video, including a white dude with a terrible orange spray tan.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Yeah, that still does not make this situation right\u2026. at all.

One person wrote:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cThis is not an apology, it wasn\u2019t OK and offended a lot of people! There was no need for it.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Another viewer commented:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201clike y\u2019all clearly didn\u2019t achieve the vibe you wanted, and it never should have been attempted. I don\u2019t personally love your \u2018explanation\u2019, but regardless of your intentions, people ARE offended by what you did. You need to apologize and do better.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>And a third follower really reflected a majority of the posts in the comments section, expressing:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cYou\u2019re 24 years old and you\u2019re not a kid anymore, stop acting like one. Honestly, that excuse just made it worse. It was better not to say anything. It\u2019s not the first time this has happened and it\u2019s always the same excuse. I love you with all my heart but that was really a shame.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>In case you have no idea what they were talking about, Camila has previously faced backlash after some resurfaced <strong>Tumblr<\/strong> posts revealed her reblogging posts that contained the N-word and other super offensive terms. Following the scandal, Camila said she attended weekly racial healing sessions to educate herself on the issues. She told <em>People<\/em> at the time:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cIt created a space where I was held accountable. You get corrected, you have homework, and you learn. That\u2019s how you move forward.
