Principal Gets Flowers for Viral Yearbook Quote Mishap
6 Jun
Summary
- Principal O'Connell received flowers from Fetty Wap's team.
- A popular song lyric was mistakenly attributed to the principal.
- O'Connell denies approving the yearbook quote attributed to her.
A former school principal found herself at the center of a viral story after a quote from rapper Fetty Wap's song "Trap Queen" was erroneously published in the school yearbook and attributed to her. The quote, "Everybody hating, we just call them fans though! -Mrs. O'Connell," led to the principal being placed on administrative leave.
Principal Katie O'Connell stated she did not approve the quote for the yearbook. Despite the mix-up, Fetty Wap's publicist reached out to a local news outlet requesting O'Connell's name to send her flowers. Subsequently, O'Connell received flowers and balloons with a card from Fetty Wap and his team, a gesture her attorney described as appreciated.
