Sinead snubs ‘disgusting white people’

-

ODDBALL Sinead O’Connor has sparked outrage on Twitter by claiming she no longer wants to spend time with “disgusting white people” – after converting to Islam.

The Irish star ( above) – who now refers to herself as Shuhada’ Davitt – apologised for her “racist” tweet, but said: “I never wanna spend time with white people again.”

She branded “white people” or “non-Muslims” disgusting, adding: “Interestin­g to see if Twitter bans this.”

However, the 51-year-old, who has battled with her mental health over the years, was met with a furious backlash from both Muslims and non-Muslims.

One user replied: “You’re disgusting too then, because you’re are also white.”

And another wrote: “Don’t stereotype – people are different regardless of colour!”
