Conservative personality Candace Owens is keeping it 100 after getting singled out last night (October 30) by Kanye West. The Blexit leader has stepped forward to address Ye distancing himself from her movement.
On Wednesday, Candace hit up Twitter to direct fans to a blog post called “808s and Heartbreak” about the situation she’s currently in.
“If I had to imagine what it would feel like to have a bullet pierce my heart, it would be exactly like the moment I learned Kanye told the world he felt I had used him. I wouldn’t wish the way I felt last night upon my worst enemy. I never once said that Kanye designed the t-shirts for BLEXIT. This is a lie that seems to have made its way around the world; a lie I would like to again correct for the record. Kanye was completely right to feel used in that regard and as I have done personally, I would like to publicly apologize to him for any undue stress or pain the effort to correct that rumor has caused him, his business relationships, or his family. He simply never designed them. I am a leader, and I would like to lead in this moment by stating that any and all confusion relating to this topic is therefore my fault, entirely.” (Candace Owens)

Owens also made sure to apologize to President Donald Trump for people believing he took aim at his administration.
“I would also like to publicly apologize to President Trump, as I know that Kanye’s tweets were rapidly misinterpreted as a shot to this administration. His tweets were aimed at me and me only, rightfully, for my personal failings.
I bare full responsibility. There is no manual to any of this. I wake up everyday, and I do what I think is right. And today, this is what I feel in my heart to be right. I conceptualized BLEXIT in February of this year backstage at CPAC. Nobody really knew me then, but I knew in that very moment that I was the person who was meant to lead black America out of the darkness and away from the lies and deception of policies that have paralyzed our progress.” (Candace Owens)
To scores of cowards on both sides of the political aisle who celebrated last night:
You are up against a community of freed hearts, spirits and minds.
You cannot defeat #BLEXIT.

Last night, longtime Kanye pal Talib Kweli applauded him for coming back and accused Candace of taking shots at him.
Yesterday, West shocked fans by hitting up Twitter and sharing his strong statements.
I support creating jobs and opportunities for people who need them the most, I support prison reform, I support common-sense gun laws that will make our world safer.

I support those who risk their lives to serve and protect us and I support holding people who misuse their power accountable.
I believe in love and compassion for people seeking asylum and parents who are fighting to protect their children from violence and war.

I would like to thank my family, loved ones, and community for supporting my ACTUAL beliefs and my vision for a better world.

I introduced Candace to the person who made the logo and they didn’t want their name on it so she used mine. I never wanted any association with Blexit. I have nothing to do with it.

My eyes are now wide open and now realize I’ve been used to spread messages I don’t believe in. I am distancing myself from politics and completely focusing on being creative !!!
