Fans online criticized Berner because they thought the interaction with Megan on the red carpet showed racist microaggression.

“The interview with Megan Thee Hengst was a dream of mine. I love her music and it is mine when I have to increase my self -confidence before a show. If I looked back on the interview, I wish I had used another word except” Fight “to describe how her songs affect me,” wrote Bernner.

She continued: “It was a careless choice of words and although there was no bad intention, I recognize and recognize that what I said has a deeper meaning, and I'm so sorry for Megan. I appreciate everyone who has made this aware of me.”

USA TODAY has turned to a comment on Megan's representative.
