Ariana DeBose deactivated her Twitter account after receiving a lot of backlash for her rap video, which was nominated for an award at the British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA). The producer of the video, who is also DeBose's friend, has def

"The actress' Twitter account 'no longer exists.'"

"Oscar and Bafta-winning actress Ariana DeBose has deactivated her Twitter account, seemingly following backlash over her 2023 Bafta ceremony performance."

"The West Side Story star kicked off the awards show on Sunday night with a spirited medley of Sisters Are Doin' It for Themselves and We Are Family."

"It then segued into an original rap verse highlighting the female nominees, which has since gone viral."

"At one point, she rapped: 'Angela Bassett did the thing, Viola Davis my 'Woman King,,' Blanchett Cate you're a genius, Jamie Lee you are all of us.'"

"Now, the 32-year-old is no longer on Twitter after she was attacked over the routine, with the link to her profile, tagged by Bafta's official account, resulting in a 'this account doesn't exist' message."

"Online naysayers had branded the rap section in particular 'painful,' with one tweeting: 'This has unlocked a whole new level of cringe for me. Like I can't. I need a day off to recover.'"

"However, others defended the performer, and laid the blame squarely with the lyrics."

"'Look Ariana DeBose did the best she could with the material, but who the hell wrote that song? Because jail, immediately,' argued one viewer."

"Now a Bafta producer has come to her defence and branded the criticism 'incredibly unfair.'"

Oscar and Bafta-winning actress Ariana DeBose has deactivated her Twitter account, seemingly following backlash over her 2023 Bafta ceremony performance.

The West Side Story star kicked off the awards show on Sunday night with a spirited medley of Sisters Are Doin' It for Themselves and We Are Family.

It then segued into an original rap verse highlighting the female nominees, which has since gone viral.

At one point, she rapped: "Angela Bassett did the thing, Viola Davis my 'Woman King,' Blanchett Cate you're a genius, Jamie Lee you are all of us."

Now, the 32-year-old is no longer on Twitter after she was attacked over the routine, with the link to her profile, tagged by Bafta's official account, resulting in a "this account doesn't exist" message.

Online naysayers had branded the rap section in particular "painful," with one tweeting: "This has unlocked a whole new level of cringe for me. Like I can't. I need a day off to recover.”



Her medley was a big production number to kick off the evening.

Another added: "Ariana DeBose you're an Oscar winner, you don't have to do this, this I promise."

However, others defended the performer, and laid the blame squarely with the lyrics.

"Look Ariana DeBose did the best she could with the material, but who the hell wrote that song? Because jail, immediately,” argued one viewer.

Now a Bafta producer has come to her defense and branded the criticism "incredibly unfair."
