WHAT A CLUELESS TEACHER: Girl whose African dress to prom was called tacky by a teacher says the teacher has apologized

A High school student,Mayalaya Zanders, who was told by a teacher that wearing an African dress to prom isn't really "something you wear to prom" went ahead and wore this gorgeous Ankara to her prom. She took to her IG page yesterday to say the teacher has since apologized, she has forgiven the teacher and has moved on. She also stated that she didn't want it to be about racism but about sharing her African culture. Initially she wrote:

"Thank you to everyone who gave me kind words on my prom dress. My date doesn't have social media so he's kinda nonchalant lol. The dress came after seeing the beautiful @jessnnecee wearing one similar to a ball. After discussing how beautiful it was and that I would do a african theme with a ) teacher I was told it wasn't really "something you wear to prom" Hellbent on proving them wrong and being someone who loves our culture and African glamorous style , me and @indelible_dcdecided to take the Ankara dress and put a twist on it. Little did I know it came out more beautiful, then I could've ever imagine!! My dress was to make a point. That African style is beautiful. That I am comfortable with my Melanin and roots. And finally that there's nothing like Black girl Magic❤️

While Manchester United fans were sent into a frenzy following reports that the club is set to confirm Jose Mourinho as their manager ahead of next season, the former Chelsea coach showed no signs of stress as he took in the David Haye fight at the O2 Arena on Saturday night.

Just after the Red Devils beat Crystal Palace 2-1 after extra-time to win the FA Cup at Wembley, reports circulated that the club had reached an agreement with the Portuguese manager to replace Louis van Gaal this summer.

While Van Gaal refused to address the speculation and maintained he will remain in charge, the rumours continued to grow, but Mourinho showed no signs of stress or excitement in the wake of the reports.

The 53-year-old looked perfectly relaxed as the guest of honour at David Haye's fight with Arnold Gjergjaj, which the Englishman won in the second round.
