As reported, Back in April 2016, Kelly was caught on camera in a racist rant, slurring that she didn’t like black guys during a drunken incident outside of a bar.

She apologized for her remarks, but mocked the pandemic again in a video filmed when she returned to indoor dining. In one now-deleted video, she was heard yelling “Cheers!” as someone yelled out, “To superspreaders.” One of her friends then fake-coughed after shouting, “Spread that s–t.”
