Sophie Turner is doing damage control following a video that was posted on Instagram that appeared to show the “Game of Thrones” actress using the N-word.
Turner is shown in the video at the gym with Joe Jonas and fitness pro Brendan Fallis. When the camera pans to Turner she is heard saying, “What’s up [expletive]?”
Some fans who viewed the video jumped on social media to slam the starlet for using the N-word, as that is what it sounded like in the short clip.
But she insists that’s not what she uttered.
“I used the word ‘motherf--kers’ in a recent video posted in an Instagram story and not a hateful racial slur that has been suggested,” she said in a statement sent to Page Six. “I am incredibly upset that anyone would think otherwise, and I want to make it clear that I would never use such an abhorrent word.”
