上周傳來滿身刺青的加拿大模特兒「Zombie Boy」Rick Genest 逝世的噩耗,不同的時尚界人士都發文哀悼,他的好友 Lady Gaga 亦在 Twitter 上發佈了兩節悼念文,文中指他的「自殺」讓人感到非常傷痛,最後更呼籲大家要正視精神健康的問題,讓人即時想到 Rick Genest 是因情緒病自殺身亡。然而,數天後 Lady Gaga 又再次發文,今次她向 Rick Genest 的家屬和社會道歉,她在 Twitter 上表示自己早前對 Rick Genest 過世的言論言之過早,在未有任何證據或證人前就為他的死因下定論,因此她對此事而感到抱歉。除了道歉,她更把先前的兩篇悼念文刪掉,以示尊重。
Out of respect for Rick’s family, Rick & his legacy I apologize if I spoke too soon as there was no witnesses or evidence to support any conclusion for the cause of his death. I in no way meant to draw an unjust conclusion My deepest condolences to his entire family and friends. pic.twitter.com/CJ9AdOJ22j

據《People》的報導,Rick Genest 的家人和經理人指整件事有著很多前後矛盾的地方,大眾對他死因實在太早下定論。他的經理人指 Rick Genest 是從三樓陽台跌下,那個陽台只有矮小的欄杆,而現場看起來 Rick Genest 不像刻意跳下來,因此不排除是意外。最後他們亦補充指大家都很難對他的死因下定論,只有 Rick Genest 和神知道答案。
The art we made was sacred to me and I was emotional, he was an incredible artist and his art and heart will live on. Rest In Peace 🙏 You beautiful soul. pic.twitter.com/0gXTJ6cHYB
