Country star Morgan Wallen has issued an apology after being caught on camera shouting expletives and even using the "N-word."
In a video obtained by TMZ, Wallen and some friends arrive at his house after a night out. The singer uses the "N-word" to describe one of his drunk friends.
The video was reportedly captured by a neighbor's doorbell camera over the weekend.
"I'm embarrassed and sorry," Wallen told TMZ. "I used an unacceptable and inappropriate racial slur that I wish I could take back."
"There are no excuses to use this type of language, ever," he added. "I want to sincerely apologize for using the word. I promise to do better."
In reaction to the video, Wallen has been suspended by his label, Big Loud Records, and removed from iHeartMedia and Entercom radio stations as well as CMT.
