Nicole Byer calls out Netflix for being "disrespectful" for excluding her in Nailed It! thumbnail

E! Online

A Twitter user sent Byer a Netflix Nailed It! thumbnail on Tuesday only showing judge Jacques Torres and assistant director Weston Bahr, who are both white men. In a series of since-deleted tweets, Byer tweeted: "If Netflix didn't sign my checks and give me a huge platform and opportunity to showcase my comedy. I would talk about how f*cked up and disrespectful this is to me a black woman. Also how black women are a lot of times erased from many different conversations." In another tweet, she wrote: "To be clear. I know there are thumbnails with and without my face... This one just seems for lack of a better word deliberate. Again I love my job." Byer later followed up on her complaint, tweeting: "I deleted my last set of tweets bc I talked to one the execs on my show about it and the thrilling conclusion is the removal of the image and a conversation about how the thumbnails are made and selected that I’m happy with."
