Spirit Airlines employee Amber, who was recently laid off, did not accept an apology from beauty influencer James Charles. The woman stated that she refused to respond to a private message because of the way he embarrassed her in front of his millions of followers.
One of many recently laid off, Amber spoke on TikTok about the incident in which James attacked her GoFundMe page in a post he later deleted.
“I do not accept his apology. Hell no, especially because he was very public with what he said, and [he] thought it was OK to message me privately,” Amber stated in the clip.
In the deleted post, Charles criticized the girl. “You know what else would help you? Getting another job. Try that. You didn’t because you’re a lazy piece of sh*t and you’re entitled and you think influencers and celebrities should fund your life for you,” he said.

James later issued a public apology for his comments in the video, calling his actions “obnoxious,” “privileged,” “rude,” and “stupid.” Furthermore, he also messaged Amber privately and asked her to forgive him, as he provided a screenshot in his TikTok response.
“I’m so sorry for adding to what was already a distressing time. I’m ashamed of myself, I’m so ashamed [not] only [of] the video, but also for being so disgustingly out of touch,” Charles wrote in a direct message.
Furthermore, the man noted that he had read many posts from people whose lives were negatively affected by layoffs. “Also, fully understand if you never want to hear from me again. I genuinely wish you all the best and hope you’re doing OK,” he ended the apology.
However, Amber did not think that James’ private apology meant anything.
“He apologized in private after embarrassing me publicly. Some damage doesn’t disappear just because you finally feel guilty. I heard the apology. I just don’t accept it,” she said.
