Nick Cannon Apologizes For His Anti-Semitic Comments, Will Stay On "The Masked Singer"

Nick Cannon initially refused to apologize for anti-Semitic and anti-white comments he made during a discussion on his podcast with Professor Griff.

Then CBSViacom fired him from Wild N Out.

He avoided that same fate with Fox and The Masked Singer when he did apologize, at least for the anti-Semitic statements. 

“First and foremost I extend my deepest and most sincere apologies to my Jewish sisters and brothers for the hurtful and divisive words that came out of my mouth during my interview with Richard Griffin. They reinforced the worst stereotypes of a proud and magnificent people and I feel ashamed of the uninformed and naïve place that these words came from. The video of this interview has since been removed.”

After he did, Fox announced Cannon will keep his Masked Singer gig.

"When we were made aware of Nick Cannon’s interview with Richard Griffin on YouTube, we immediately began a dialogue with Nick," the network tweeted. "He is clear and remorseful that his words were wrong and lacked both understanding and context, and inadvertently promoted hate. This was important for us to observe. Nick has sincerely apologized, and quickly taken steps to educate himself and make amends. On that basis and given a belief that this moment calls for dialogue, we will move forward with Nick and help him advance this important conversation, broadly. FOX condemns all forms of hate directed toward any community and we will combat bigotry of any kind."
