Cyn Santana Catches Heat Over ‘Black Men Prefer Latinas’ Comment [WATCH]

Cyn Santana on The Real

*Cyn Santana is catching head over an old audio clip that has resurfaced of her claiming that Black men prefer Latinas over Black women.

On Wednesday (December 4), the reality star appeared on “The Real” and attempted to clarify the comments she made back in 2016 on Angela Yee’s Lip Service podcast (listen to the audio via the Instagram embed below). 

The audio hit the Internet again in January 2019, in which Santana noted her preference for dating Black men because they put Spanish women on a pedestal. 

“I just like Black guys and Spanish girls,” she said. “Y’all can keep the Puerto Rican men, I’m good. I do Black guys all day, sorry. I did the Spanish thing… doesn’t work out for me. I think they’re too emotional.”

She added, “Black guys cater to us Spanish girls, especially. Like, they… you know what, let me not get into it. Black girls gonna take it personal. They gonna be like, ‘Uhh uhh!’ Anyway, I’m done with the papis.”

During a recent appearance on “The Real,” Santana, 27, claimed she only repeated what she has “heard my entire life.” 

“I think what happened was, we were talking about our experiences with men and different men, races, and ethnicities and comparing our experiences,” she stated. “I think what happened was I poorly articulated myself and I irresponsibly repeated something that I heard my entire life.”

The “Love & Hip Hop: New York” claims her initial comments were taken out of context.

“This is a tough moment for me,” she continued. “I feel like I poorly articulated myself and I irresponsibly repeated something that I heard throughout my teenage years which was, the whole, ‘Oh, Black men love Spanish women, or Latinas, you know.’ And I think people took that message wrongly. That’s not what I meant.”

When her comments went viral in January, Santana took to Twitter to apologize to Black women. 

“I especially love THE BLACK WOMAN. I’ve never in my life bashed one. Never will. So yeah Ima explain myself and shed some clarity on a clip that’s being spread around with little context,” she tweeted at the time. “I’ve used the N word ignorantly most of my life not knowing that it was actually a bad word and it was offensive. Took that word out of my vocab… If I’ve offended anyone, I do indeed apologize.”
