Gwyneth Paltrow Ignites Racial Controversy After Twitter Post

After attending a concert in Paris this weekend, Gwyneth Paltrow took to her Twitter page to show off her fun night, but instead she got a firestorm of negative feedback.

On Friday (June 1), the "Contagion" actress posted a photo of herself on stage with rappers Jay-Zand Kanye West in Paris for their 'Watch the Throne' tour with a caption reading, "Ni**as in paris for real."

Although the 39-year-old's caption was just the title of a song written by the performers, it sparked a racial controversy on whether or not she was using the N-word in a derogatory way.

Following the weekend uproar, Miss Paltrow once again to took to her social media page to defend herself tweeting, "Hold up. It's the title of the song!"

Regardless of the context of her tweet, Jay and Kanye did perform that hit 11 times during their performance.
