Following the comments made on air, Rivera was forced to apologise today admitting she had made the comments in error:
“It was supposed to be a joke. I apologize if anyone was offended. I said that I thought that showering multiple times in a day was such a white person thing.
“So yesterday we were talking about a study that says we are supposed to shower I guess once or twice every three days which I had an opinion on, it which was supposed to be a joke but apparently didn't go over so well.
“However, I'm very excited that it sparked a big conversation about how many times you should shower.”
Host Nicolle Wallace defended the actress, saying:
“I actually thought you were more on a reasoned side of this so I'd like to defend you today. I'm white, so she was talking about me, if anyone missed that, as I shower three times a day.”
Wallace later added that she too had received feedback, but "mostly from the OCD crowd."
