Cinnabon Employee Fired for Calling Somali Couple N-Word

A Wisconsin Cinnabon employee was fired after a video of her hurling the N-word at a Somali couple went viral over the weekend.

The video shared on social media shows the employee at the Ashwaubenon Cinnabon, who has not been publicly identified, calling the couple the N-word and saying he is a racist during a heated argument.

“I am a racist, and you are a n—-r,” the employee says while nodding and smiling. “I am racist and I’ll say that to the whole entire world.”

As the couple filming her warn her that she’s ruining her life with such a declaration, the woman flashes both her middle fingers at them.

“You are fired from this place motherf–ker,” the man filming her says. “You’re not going to be working here.”

The employee quickly responds with, “Suck it,” as she does the signature pro-wrestling taunt at them with both middle fingers.

“What’s wrong with you?” the man asks.

“What the f—k is wrong with you, you f—king ugly bitch? Get the f—k out of my face,” she responds.

“Are you talking about ugliness,” he fires back.

The original post claims that the couple entered the Cinnabon to buy food, with an argument exploding after the employee allegedly began making fun of the female customer’s hijab.

Cinnabon said on Saturday that it was aware of the incident and took action against the employee over the language she used against the customers.

“We’ve seen the disturbing video from the Cinnabon bakery in Ashwaubenon, WI, and we do not condone this behavior,” the company said. “The former employee was immediately terminated by the franchise owner.

“Their actions do not reflect our values or the welcoming experience every guest deserves,” Cinnabon added.

Following the fallout, a GiveSendGo page that raised thousands of dollars for the fired woman has since apparently been taken down.

A GoFundMe for her was also set up — raising more than $1,000 from 27 donors.
