When Kylie wore Locs you went crazy but when it's Zendaya wearing it gorgeously you dare to say her hair smell like weed? @GiulianaRancic

Rancic clarified her remarks in a statement on Twitter, but at this point that might not be enough to put this fire out.
Dear @Zendaya, I'm sorry I offended you and others. I was referring to a bohemian chic look. Had NOTHING to do with race and NEVER would!!!
