Johnny Wright Responds To Duarte Racism Claims

In response to Ibrahim Duarte’s allegations of *NSYNC racism, the group’s manager, Johnny Wright, said in a statement: “I’m saddened to hear that Ibrahim has chosen to take this path. It’s outrageous that race is being used. I am the manager of *NSYNC and I am African-American. *NSYNC’s director of worldwide security is African-American, the musical director of *NSYNC is African-American, in fact our entire security team is African-American. *NSYNC’s assistant production manager is Asian-American, and it goes on and on. Never in my 10 years of being with the group have I ever heard or received a complaint from anyone, including Ibrahim, associated with the group about racial or demeaning speech.” Read more.
