Aubrey O’Day has clapped back at critics after she was called out online for attending two Kanye West concerts last week.

Due to a series of scandalous actions and public statements, Kanye has been at the center of controversy for some time. As a result, several brands and former celebrity friends distanced themselves from the rapper … but, clearly, Aubrey wasn’t one of them. Here’s what she had to say about it.

Aubrey said she “can hold two truths at once”

To recap, Kanye performed a string of concerts in California last week, and it later came to light that Aubrey had attended two of these shows. Aubrey’s decision to support Kanye prompted backlash from some people online, with one person calling the former Danity Kane member – who also recently appeared on the Netflix documentary about the downfall of Sean “Diddy” Combs – a “f*cking hypocrite.”

To that, Aubrey had a strong response. Taking to X herself, she drew a line between “engaging” in art and agreeing with an artist’s opinions.

“I can hold two truths at once,” the musician told her 450k followers. “I’ve been vocal about abuse because I’ve lived it, and I don’t excuse it, ever. That hasn’t changed. But I also don’t believe engaging with someone’s art means I co-sign every opinion or action they’ve ever had.”

“If that were the rule, most of this industry, and honestly most of the world, would be off limits,” she continued.

“What I don’t support is harm, exploitation, or violence,” Aubrey went on. “And I’ve been consistent about that. You can disagree with where I draw my line, but calling it hypocrisy ignores the nuance.”

Aubrey ended her post by reminding her fans (and critics) that “it’s not black and white.”

“I’ve been clear about where I stand on abuse,” she added. “That doesn’t change because I attended a show. Nuance isn’t hypocrisy, it’s reality.”
