'Black lives matter, not the looters who are taking advantage of these protests,' Kelly Clarkson said
Clarkson clarified her statements on the protests in two follow-up tweets, which remain on Twitter.
"Okay so for the few that didn’t understand me in this last tweet. I am asking people to stay focused on the POINT of all of this," she explained. "Black lives matter, not the looters who are taking advantage of these protests. These protests and this message is too important to get overshadowed." "It’s sad how my words r being twisted," the Grammy winner added. "I’m used 2 it happening by now but not w/such an important issue. My intentions have been & always will be 2 do the right thing. & the right thing is to listen, to educate myself, & 2 be a part of the change I wish to see. Black Lives Matter."
