B Simone Speaks On Plagiarism Accusations: “I Take Full Accountability”

B Simone Addresses Plagiarism Accusations, Says She Takes Full Responsibility

B. Simone became a trending topic on social media last week after she said that she can’t date men with 9 to 5 job. Not long after, she was exposed for plagiarizing another author’s content in her newly released Book.

She was accused of doing copy and pasted worksheets from Pinterest accounts for Baby Girl Manifest The Life You Want without actually getting the permission to use them.

B Simone was heavily dragged across social media and when Meek Mill chimed in to defend her, he was Dragged along. She’s however accepted full responsibility for what happened, claiming to have reached out to all of the creators her team stole work from and addressing the topic in a 3-minute long video.

“I have built my career on complete transparency and vulnerability. I have shared my lows and have celebrated my highs for the world to see, and this moment wont be any different,” she writes on Instagram. “I want to be honest with you all ALWAYS! Like most creatives I outsourced a team to help me with the details, the graphics, the wording, the arrangement of my book.”

“I trusted this team of individuals to take my vision and translate it into what I hoped to be a map towards manifestation. I have reached out directly to every content creator that was disadvantaged an I am doing everything I can to fix this issue and make everyone whole,” she said.

“Even though this was not intentional, I am still so very sorry to the content creators and i understand their frustration 100%. To my supporters I apologize, you trust me to deliver honesty and authenticity and although some things were done without my knowledge I am the leader and I dropped the ball. I am working everyday to be a better human, a better woman, a better professional, and to do that successfully I have to own my shit.”

She concluded, “Thank you to those of you who have supported me. I am genuinely sorry that this happened and I vow to make it right.”
