According to Us Weekly, Tracy Shapoff’s original tweets used offensive words and even fat-shamed women. In another tweet, she actually made fun of women who compete on reality T.V. shows for love. The tweets then may no have been a big deal, but now they have resurfaced and people are angry.
“Liposuction is retarded…stop wasting your money and just get your fat ass to the gym.” and “Wish these fat old women on the treadmill would shut the hell up stop dancing and just work out.” These are just two of the tweets that Shapoff tweeted.

Now, Tracy Shapoff has released a lengthy apology for what she did, trying to clear the air with fans. She posted the apology in a multi-page photo post on Instagram. Tracy made it clear she knew what she did was hurtful and how those thoughts she expressed in the past do not represent at all who she is today.
Tracy concluded the apology by saying she doesn’t defend any of it and takes full responsibility for what was said. This makes her much more reliable than people who get defensive when people look back at old social media posts. Take a look at the apology below:

Good grief ppl – are we just going to continue to punish ppl who did ‘inappropriate’ things years and years and years ago. Let’s move on. I don’t even know this person, but I’m really sick of hearing about what he/she did 40 years ago in college at a drunken college party. So ppl do crazy stuff – quit being ‘offended’ by every little thing – you’re offended, so what ???
