LaToya Ali is stirring things up on season 13 of the ‘Real Housewives of Atlanta,’ but the drama surrounding her isn’t limited to the screen.
This week, a clip from one of the star’s initial YouTube days surfaced and showed her slamming a foe.
In the shocking video, she likened the Black woman’s lips to that of “Donkey Kong” – a computer game ape.
Now, after an avalanche of critique, she’s issued an apology.
Her words below…
Here’s the clip in question:
This is what Latoya is apologizing for 7 years late. This was made when she was 27. A grown ass adult pic.twitter.com/Ha2eoxo2ag

With that, what are…
On Sanford and Son, Red Foxx used to tell LaWanda Page: “I’ll stick your face in dough and make gorilla cookies!” Even though he’s dead, we’re still waiting for an apology.
Different time and different context. Lawanda Page was on a 70s black sitcom where she dished it out to Red Foxx as much as she received it from him. That was the schtick. Ali is a beauty blogger, not a comedian. Her denigration of a darker black woman’s looks came across as mean spirited and colorist.
Even black women “needing” to apologize now, lawwwwwd y’all completely nuts 🥜💯🤣🤳🏽
Exactly what I thought 😂 now the Blacks are allegedly racist themselves
She probably use donkey Kong lips in place of d**k suking lips lol.
If someone thinks “Donkey Kong lips” is racist against blacks, then that someone must equate Blacks with Donkey Kong so that’s them being the racist. It’s all counter-productive and hypocritical.
STFU you dumb c***. This s*** is about colorism not racism. You always trying to confuse the argument to make an irrelevant flop point. Ali is a lighter skinned black woman with more European features. Her equating a darker woman with fuller, more traditionally African features with a donkey is f***** up and inappropriate. You should start taking notes from me ho…maybe you can get some credit hours. Dumb b****
Yawn 🥱 Not reading….
Me and Shakaiah trying to have a little dance to Woah Vicky. She always starts bopping up and down excitedly on the carpet to “Don’t Like Me,” it’s the cutest thing you’ve ever seen!
You know I’m QUEEN! I’m Queen! Cha’mon! And the whole world has to answer right now just to tell you once again… WHO’S QUEEN?! 👑👑👑 Yassssssssssss b***** YASSSSSSSSSS!!! Y’all already KNOW!!!! 💯🤣🤳🏽
Bravo better not bring her back. She’s not connecting with the audience because she’s trying too hard to create drama, and is just nasty. She’s the worst addition to any housewives city since Teddi on RHOBH, and those twins who looked like they smoked a pack of cigarettes a day on RHONJ
She said the truth tho…. not just the lips… she forgot to mention their SHERK noses too💅🏿💅🏿
Yas Cancel this low budget NeNe!
Black Twitter’s power is indestructible. 😈😈😈
It’s called Fascism dummy 💯🤣🤳🏽
She looks stupid saying it while she slings around her weave under soft lights to make herself look lighter. Thats why these white girls out here blowing up their lips to look like donkey Kong, right. Black features are beautiful. Check the plastic statistics.
I have followed her since she first was on YouTube and found out she was having her first child. I don’t recognize this LaToya that is on this show. It’s like she is either changing for the show or finally being her true self. I can’t tell.
