Megyn Kelly Stirs The Pot With Claims Against Dijonai Carrington'S 'White Girl Hair'

Megyn Kelly Takes Aim at DiJonai Carrington

In the latest episode of "The Megyn Kelly Show," conservative commentator Megyn Kelly put Chicago Sky's DiJonai Carrington under the spotlight for what she dubbed as "white girl hair." It's heating up on the West Coast as Kelly accuses the star athlete of cultural appropriation, stirring up a whirlwind of debate about style choices and racial dynamics.

The Incident That Sparked the Controversy

Before the hair drama blew up, Carrington made headlines following a tense on-court moment. During a game against Indiana Fever, she was ejected for a foul on Sophie Cunningham that sent Cunningham to the ground. To add fuel to the fire, Carrington took to social media afterwards with a pointed "WHITE PRIVILEGE" comment, implying her ejection was for reasons beyond the game. "It was unfortunate that I made contact with her in the way that I did, but it was never intentional," she clarified. "And, look, it might happen again... I’m not gonna just let an open layup happen."

Kelly took Carrington to task on her show, saying, “She’s allowed to culturally appropriate from me, but I can't culturally appropriate from her because it only works one way in becoming a racist.”

A Critique Beyond Hair

Kelly's criticisms extended beyond Carrington's choice of hair color. She dissected the athlete's entire appearance, from her cheekbones to her choice of makeup. "She appears to have done something like to give herself filler face," Kelly commented, sparking discussions about beauty standards and personal expression in the public eye.

Meanwhile, Carrington has shared that her hair color is naturally ash blond, revealing during an Instagram live, "Next hair color? Well, I went back to my natural color today, of ash blond. Yes, I said natural." Amidst all the Hollywood-style drama, the debate continues over where to draw the line when it comes to cultural appropriation and personal style.
