Da Brat and Wife Jesseca ‘Judy’ Dupart Address Backlash Over Black Sperm Donor Comments: “I Didn’t Think it Would be Offensive to Anybody” [Video]

Da Brat and her wife Jesseca “Judy” Dupart are opening up about their pregnancy journey and the comments made about a black sperm donor, claiming that the joke was “taken out of context.”

During a recent episode of the Tamron Hall Show, the two wanted to address the controversy surrounding their decision to choose a white sperm donor.

According to Da Brat, after her wife’s genetic testing, the number of suitable possibilities had significantly decreased, and the single Black donor that was offered to them didn’t meet her standards.

“That [dude] looked like Jiminy Cricket,” Brat said during an episode of Brat Loves Judy. “I was like, ‘I’m sorry but that wasn’t gonna be my choice.’ … But I think we did a great job with picking. He’s handsome, he’s tall, and I think he’s going to look beautiful with my wife’s egg.”

Initially, her comments drew criticism from fans because people assumed that the couple had genetic reasons for rejecting the Black donor. During her conversation with Hall, Da Brat disputed the claims, stating that she and her wife had their hearts set on a Black donor.

“I didn’t think it would be offensive to anybody,” the rapper said about the “Jiminy Cricket” comment. “I cracked jokes about almost everybody that I saw, that one just happened to make it in the show. I wasn’t trying to be mean or say anything negative about Black people. We were looking for a Black donor. We’re Black, we wanted a Black donor. So it was just misconstrued and taken way out of context.”
