Real Housewives of Salt Lake City's Mary Cosby is causing controversy over comments she made about the race.
Cosby, who is black, had previously said during an episode of the Bravo Show, "If I go to one 7-11 and see black people, I go to another 7-11." During the reunion special, she reentered and found that she was not attracted to black men.
"My taste of blacks is not my taste …" she said to host Andy Cohen.

The comments caused confusion as Cosby married her step-grandfather Robert Cosby Sr., who is black. When she was reminded of this, she replied, “Well, he's white … yes, I mean lighter … he's black, but I prefer lighter people … I need to improve the way I convey things … the way I do Saying things can be offensive. I think all the colors of black are beautiful, and I'm proud of them, and I'm proud of my culture. "
The comments came over a month after Cosby tried to clear up her "7-11" comments on the RHOSLC episode in question. "I said I'm scared when guys are outside a grocery store," she told Cohen during an episode of Watch What Happens Live.
When Cohen asked if she was referring specifically to black men, Cosby replied by saying, "I'm black. My son is black."
