DJ Envy Issues Public Apology To Lil’ Kim Following Halloween Costume Controversy

Social media users criticized the radio personality for his insensitive costume choice.

Envy has since apologized for his actions, saying that he understands why people were offended.

On Halloween, DJ Envy dressed up as Lil' Kim's iconic 1999 MTV Video Music Awards outfit, which included a prosthetic belly and buttocks. Many social media users criticized Envy for his costume, calling it insensitive and disrespectful. Some even accused him of blackface, a serious offense that involves darkening one's skin to impersonate a person of color.

Envy has since apologized for his costume choice, saying that he understands why people were offended. He said that he was not trying to be malicious or disrespectful, but that he simply wanted to dress up as one of his favorite hip-hop artists.

Lil' Kim has not publicly commented on Envy's apology. However, her fans have been very vocal in their criticism of the radio personality. Many have called for him to be fired from his job at The Breakfast Club, a popular morning radio show on Power 105.1 in New York City.

It remains to be seen whether Envy will face any professional consequences for his costume choice. However, the controversy has certainly damaged his reputation and has led to a great deal of public scrutiny.
