Blair Featherman speaks out about racially charged TikTok video
The woman who launched into a racially-charged tirade against a Latino family near the pool of the Colorado apartment complex claims the group attacked her first — and the “deceptively edited” video that went viral doesn’t tell the whole story, according to a report.
In her first public comments since footage of her outburst emerged online, Blair Featherman, 49, told the Daily Mail that she is not racist and that the clip posted on TikTok was modified to make it appear as if she was.
Featherman was filmed calling the family “trash” and “low class” for having a pool party around the Fourth of July.
“I have been trying to stay silent and not comment about this, but there are things the video doesn’t show,” the art consultant reportedly said.
“I’m not a racist,” she added. “It was deceptively edited and put together to tell a narrative that isn’t true.”
Footage of Featherman’s rant at the Alta Green Mountain apartment complex shows her directing verbal insults toward the group.

“You have a f–king Mexican party in a pool,” she said. “Trash.”
When she realized she was being recorded, she appeared to grab the phone away, insisting “You can’t do that. You can’t just record me.”
The social media video then skips to her on a lounge chair as she continues to argue with the other group.
She called them “low class” and told them to go back to Denver before later shouting, “you’re nasty, you smell.”
Featherman told the Daily Mail she was criticized by the group first after complaining they were breaking the complex’s rules because the resident had too many guests at the pool.
She admitted she should’ve kept cool rather than unleash her tirade.

At one point, members of the group started calling her “white b—h and white this and white that,” she reportedly claimed.
“I was already having a bad day,” Featherman said. “But this was too much.”
She claimed when she reached for the phone that was recording her, the group fought back, with one woman pulling her hair so forcefully that her artificial nail broke off.
That alleged part of the confrontation was not shown in the TikTok video uploaded by the account name Jade Serie.

When she continued to argue with the group on one of the lounge chairs, Featherman said she couldn’t think straight at the time.
“I couldn’t believe what just happened, my heart was racing, and I was so full of adrenaline,” she told the Daily Mail.
No criminal charges were filed, the Lakewood Police Department previously told The Post, though authorities responded to the incident.
