Eve blasts Stassi Schroeder following her firing from Vanderpump Rules over racism scandal: ‘She is the poster girl for white privilege’
Stassi Schroeder and Kristen Doute were fired from Vanderpump Rules by Bravo for making racist comments and racially profiling former co-star Faith Stowers when they accused her of a false crime to police.
And with the backlash reaching a fever pitch in the day since, the ladies at The Talk did not hold back in their disgust over their past comments in a teaser video for Friday’s episode.
Eve first sounded off and directed her harsh critique at Schroeder, calling her ‘the poster child for white privilege.’

Shroeder and Doute reported their costar Faith, who is black, to police in 2018, claiming she was the suspect they were seeking in an investigation.
The stars, both of whom are white, were axed by Bravo on Tuesday, along with Max Boyens and Brett Caprioni.
The story just resurfaced last week during an Instagram Live chat with Stowers.
‘It is not funny to call the cops on anyone falsely, but especially a black woman,’ Eve said with obvious emotion before adding, ‘it disgusts me.’

Schroeder also made offensive comments in a 2017 episode of her Straight Up With Stassi podcast where she talked about black people and how they ask for special treatment in Hollywood.
In an Instagram post June 7, the reality star apologized for making ‘racially insensitive comments’ in the past and that it’s important she ‘continue to take accountability for what I have said and done, while pushing myself to do better.’
She also maintained she has grown significantly from the person she was then, and that she’s ‘filled with remorse and regret for the hurt’ she caused, including to Stowers.

But Eve didn’t was having any of her apology.
‘I have read, you know, her statement, or her sorry, and I don’t want your sorry. I don’t think you’ve changed,’ she said in the short clip.
‘I think you’re sorry you got your, whoever dropped you from your endorsements, and I think you’re sorry that you won’t be on that TV being famous for nothing. That’s why you’re sorry.’
It was at this point Eve called Schroeder ‘the poster child for white privilege.’
