[Video] Gloria Govan’s Husband, Matt Barnes Apologizes For Homophobic Slurs

October 3, 2012 by Kellie Williams in Latest News with 3 Comments

The newly (rumored) married NBA Baller Matt Barnes would like to apologize for dropping a few homophobic verbal bombs this summer-that were caught on tape. What happened? A few months ago, Matt was arrested (the cops and Matt had some past beef with each other) and was hella pissed. During his arrest, he was caught calling the arrested officier a 'f*gg*y' and a 'p***y'. Here's the clip:

The clip leaked earlier this week and Matt would like to apologize for his choice of words. He told TMZ:

"I would like to apologize for the unfortunate language I used. I know that certain words are extremely hurtful. I meant absolutely no disrespect to anyone. This comment, spoken in the heat of a difficult moment, does not accurately reflect my actual point of view."

What do you think of his apology–should we forgive him and move on? Or was an apology under the circumstances unnecessary?

Ehhh…I don't think he actually meant to offend others by his comments. It was strictly for the officer
