B Simone is in hot water again as a 2017 interview has resurfaced, revealing the social media influencer using the slur "tr***y". The podcast titled 'Whoreible Decisions' didn't show Simone in a good light as she said, "You been done swiped up on a t****y and you won't know until you're in the bedroom with 'em," also adding, "I have nothing against the LGBT, lettuce, bacon, tomato community, but I love all y'all. One of my best friends is a t****y but she's honest and open." It's safe to say that people want her cancelled again, as Twitter called her out for her tone-deaf comments. "B Simone said she had transgender friends but continued to call them t****ies that’s how you know she’s terrible friend and don’t talk to none of them that word is a slur and degrading," tweeted a user with another one adding, "She really digging that hole deeper and deeper."

"Being transphobic does not only mean physical violence towards ppl who are trans, it’s also those nasty little microaggressions, using slurs, making hateful 'jokes' at the expense of a community whose life expectancy is under 35. F**k B Simone," wrote another angry user. "I thought y'all cancelled B Simone," wrote another one.

Twitter also noticed that Simone had made sure to emphasise on the fact that she had friends that identity as part of the LGBTQIA+ community, saying that she's using that as an excuse to "hide her transphobia". "B Simone using the term 't****y' because she has a friend who allows that is a prime example that everyone isn’t your friend. THAT IS A SLUR and everyone don’t like it. Come correct when speaking to trans men and women because you will offend them," tweeted another user. Another one wrote, "B Simone calling her trans friend 'tranny' while trying to use her to hide behind her transphobic comments is really low. That’s like a white person saying they have a black friend so that’s why they use the n word or saying they have a gay relative and that’s why they say."

"At this point B Simone just needs to be quiet for the rest of the year," wrote another user in reply to the podcast clip being cirulated on the social media channel. "Dear B Simone @TheBSimone T****y is a word that is very harmful to the Transgender community. I know you made a joke but understand your words can cut deep. Also saying I have a Trans friend is like a white person saying something racist and says I have a Black Friends," tweeted another user with many showing the same sentiments. "B Simone using the term 't****y' because she has a Trans friend is equivalent to a non-black person using the term 'n****' because they have black friends."

This is not the first time Simone has been in hot water this month. She was earlier called out for saying she would not date men who work 9-5 jobs. There were also reports claiming that her book/manifestation was completely plagiarized and her lack of support for the #BlackLivesMatter movement in the wake of George Floyd's death also came under fire. "Lol B Simone is getting Bodied by the month of June," tweeted a user as social media yet again had a field day with Simone's recent "wrongdoings" with many adding "B Simone has been cancelled back to back to back to back! At this point, she needs to hop off the internet forever. Delete everything sis."
