In one direct message she sent, Hailey wrote, "Whatever that ugly n***er's name is." She also "liked" another tweet calling rapper Jay-Z a "monkey."
Hailey defended herself at the time by saying that she is allowed to say the N-word because she isn't white. Her mom, Kennya Baldwin, is Brazilian. “I’m not white tho so that’s awk,” Hailey responded in the past.
