The insider added, “She wouldn’t walk away from $12 million because she’s ‘busy.’ Based on weekly interactions on social media, by the time AGT finale aired Gabrielle was the #1 talent on network TV for 2019. Why not pick up someone’s option in extreme success?” Variety reported in November that Gabrielle allegedly asked to speak to the Human Resources department about an alleged racist joke told by guest Jay Leno. She also was reportedly told multiple times that her hairstyles were "too Black" for the show's audience.
