Leslie Jones took to Twitter to complain about her stay at the Ritz-Carlton during her stay in Los Angeles for the BET Awards on Sunday. The Saturday Night Live alum accused employees of the hotel of racism.
“Wow was such a great night at the BET awards,” Jones wrote on Twitter. “But then had THE WORST STAY @RitzCarlton DO NOT STAY THERE!! THEY DONT LIKE BLACK PEOPLE!!”
