The record executive hopped on social media with a few words for his ex-wife while sharing an AI video trend that has folks side-eyeing and asking, “What was the reason?” Kimora hasn’t responded to Russell’s just yet, but fans wasted NO time stepping in and calling out what they felt was a lil’ shade in Russell’s post.

Russell Simmons Raises Eyebrows With AI Video Featuring Kimora Lee Simmons
Y’all know the internet LOVES a good trend! The latest one taking over social media has folks creating their own AI versions of Quavo and Takeoff’s viral performance of their hit single, ‘HOTEL LOBBY.’ Russell Simmons decided to join the fun on Instagram, but chileeee, he chose Kimora Lee Simmons as his wing woman. The video alone threw fans for a loop, but Russell’s message alongside it really left folks confused. He reflected on their marriage and friendship, writing, “We worked good as a team for 15 years of dating and marriage and Another 20 years as very close friends after..also as i hope you know.”
From there, Russell congratulated Kimora on her new documentary, ‘Kimora Lee: On Her Own,’ which is currently streaming on Lifetime. But he didn’t stop there. Russell seemingly hinted that he might eventually tell his side of the story, too! Whew, it looks like some tea is brewing!

Social Media Side-Eyes Russell’s Message For Kimora
Y’all already know once The Shade Room dropped Russell’s video and message, the Roommates went OFF in the comment section. Some folks said if they were Kimora, they would be popping on Russell over the post. Meanwhile, others felt he could’ve simply picked up the phone and called her instead of sharing his post.

Russell & Kimora Previously Traded Words Online
Even though Kimora hasn’t entered the chat with a response to Russell’s latest post, they have traded words online before. Back in December, things between the Baby Phat queen and Def Jam Records founder got a lil’ spicy after Russell seemingly called Kimora out for capping! Russell appeared to question Kimora’s claim to PEOPLE that she doesn’t “really have a relationship with her kids’ fathers.” He fired back, saying he has continued to support her and their two daughters, Aoki and Ming Lee Simmons, and serve as a godfather to her other three children.
“I gave u $50,000 a month for 20 years. I was ur best/only friend. I’m the godfather to your other 3 kids, until one day you stole my stock. I have been fighting for my kids love and my bread ever since. You threatened that if I sued you, I would never speak to my kids again. There are two sides to every story.”
Kimora wasn’t feeling his clap back AT ALL! She quickly hit her Instagram Story with a message of her own and accused Russell of being the one who wasn’t telling the truth.
“My ‘girls’ are GROWN WOMEN! You know these are lies. Why are you typing from thousands of miles away in a non extradition country?” Kimora said, referring to his current living location in Bali. “Go negotiate and answer your accusers.”
