AB Quintanilla Apologizes to Mexico
AB Quintanilla tries to make nice by apologizing to the Mexican public about the comments he made in a video that was leaked to the press. Trying real hard to earn back his fans and people from his roots, he held a press conference and pleaded by saying:
“Forgive me Mexico. I am not a racist; those sentiments only exist in The United States with our people being denied their rights, being killed in the borders. That is racism. If I have to go knocking door to door at the homes of the more than 100 million habitants of Mexico to ask for forgiveness, I will do it that way.”
“If I have to do it with cameras following me, I will. I’m sorry, and a thousand times I’m sorry…The important thing is that Mexico hears me out and understands that what was on the video wasn’t meant with the intention to offend anybody.â€?
All that can be said is, start walking and knocking AB. Your knuckles and feet are going to hurt.

This is another case of low quality. A.B. please let your sister rest in peace. And try to find some humbleness in you. You are not all what you appear to be.

[…] The National Association of Actors (ANDA) in Mexico has heard enough of AB’s apologies and has come to a decision. Instead of banishing him and the Kumbia Allstarz from the country, they have decided to approve only part of their Mexican concert tour. Out of the 25 dates that were scheduled, only seven will actually take place. […]

[…] Another celeb who pissed off Mexico. The worst part about this one though is that he is Mexican himself. A video of AB Quintanilla dissing Mexicans made its way around Latin America. AB played the blame game, but then eventually offered to apologize like a girl scout. To this day, Kumbia Allstarz are still not welcome everywhere. […]

When i was raised up i was thought to forgive and forget if selena was here we know that this probably would never happen but we have’th to understand that A.B. is not that kinda guy he probably was just joking. when A.B. say something about mexico they wanna ban him from mexico but other rappers and other people talk about it and they don’t do nothing. That’s all I got to say.
