Usain Bolt Dumped His Girlfriend to Focus on the Olympics (or, because she’s white)

All, Race, Usain Bolt Jason McIntyre May 16th. 2012, 11:54am

Usain Bolt reportedly broke up with fashion designer Lubica Slovak last week so he could focus on the Summer Olympics.

The website Go-Jamaica broke the story last week, and then the Sun picked it up, but added this:

“The split follows a race row in Bolt’s homeland of Jamaica, where female fans caused an outcry by criticising him for choosing a white partner. But they received a barrage of abuse after a picture of them kissing was published last month.”

There’s no link to a story about the “race row in Bolt’s homeland” or the “barrage of abuse.” It’s just presented as fact, with no mention of the source. Par for the course with the Sun.

Slovak cryptically tweeted about the split a week ago.

Jamaica is incredibly diverse for such a small country, there is a large Asian, Indian, and white (mostly Scottish) contingent in the country. There has been legal intermarrying since the 1800s. (Gladwell actually talked about it at the end of his book “Outliers.”)
In the 70s we actually had a couple of white PMs. Bob Marley’s father was white. My mother dated Italian back in the 60s when growing up there.
There will always be a small vocal group that opposes racial mixing, just as there is everywhere. It happens here as well. If Obama had married one of his white girlfriends there would have been an uproar over that too.

When I tried to reach him for comment, Bolt only said the following, “How didja get the nuhmba to me highphone, bwoy?!?!”.

If you Google “Sex” and “Olympics” there are many, many links that come up. I didn’t find it today, but I remember reading that a high rise situated next to the British section of the Barcelona Olympic village in 1992 counted hundreds of used condoms on the roof of the complex.

I would think that a site as popular as this would be run by people that know how to google. There have been articles that discuss people in Jamaica being upset over it.
