It was a long week for NBA YoungBoy and Nique after speculation surrounding a casual Instagram Story link-up shook the net. Despite it turning out to be just a teaser ahead of the rappers official music video for his new single, Highly, the timeline is still talking. Nique has since returned to the internet to address the backlash she received after the clip began circulating.
Nique took to her YouTube channel to release a video titled, “He Sent Me A Jet The Aftermath,”where she opened up about the hate-filled DMs and negative comments she received after people assumed she was messing with NBA YoungBoy, whos also the ex of her former friend Jania Meshell.
In the video, she starts off by saying, All of this stuff was allegations on me, and instead of people really taking the time to let it play out, I feel like everybody just started attacking my looks. Like all of a sudden, Im just the ugliest person in the world. I look like a man, I got a long chin, I got all these bad things about my face Im just the ugliest, slimiest b* in the world. Thank God I know who I am because millions of people were telling me how terrible I look. She added, I had all kinds of men in my DMs telling me to kill myself. I even had grandmas and fully grown men telling me how disgusting I was.”
Nique went on to encourage viewers to remain confident in themselves despite online criticism. She shared, “This is really important for you to be confident within yourself and know that youre beautiful no matter how many people in the whole world are against you. If you know who you are and find yourself beautiful, then thats all that matters I feel like Im damned if I do and damned if I dont. Thank God I think Im beautiful, and thank God Im confident within myself.” She explained that the situation showed her how quickly people were ready to hate on her, noting how fast some switched up and assumed the worst without any real evidence.
Folks gathered under The Shade Room Teens as they tuned in to Niques latest video. While some stood firm that the main issue is that she should have never linked up with the father of her former friends son. Others argued that they still love Nique and questioned why NBA YoungBoy isnt receiving as much hate as she is.
