Keke Palmer Is Accusing Trey Songz Of 'Sexual Intimidation' -- And His Response Is PATHETIC

no title
This could become really big — and it sounds horrifying.
KeKe Palmer is accusing performer Trey Songz of ‘sexual intimidation,’ among other things, after she randomly appeared in his newly released music video for Pick Up The Phone that was released on YouTube on Friday.

From what we can gather reading Palmer’s passionate Instagram message that contained the accusation, it appears she did NOT give Songz consent for her to appear in the video — but the Scream Queens star takes it even further than that.
It is scary and potentially triggering to read, but here is her full, emotionally-charged IG message about what led up to her non-consensual appearance in the video and the hints about how she was forced into it (below):

“This is preposterous. How am I in this video Trey? After you found me in a closet HIDING because I was so afraid of anymore conflict. Literally my last option was to hide because you all would not listen when I said I did not want to be in the video the FIRST time. Just cause you give someone food and alcohol and throw in a little sexual intimidation doesn’t mean they will buckle. Yet, you still disrespected me as a young women, whom you’ve known since she was TWELVE. YOU STILL, defied my wishes and in turn showed your lack of respect for a brand that took me fourteen years to build and put me in the video against my wishes. Come on bruh, I clearly said no and you said okay, yet I was being secretly filmed when you told me “let me just show you the idea”?? Wow. This is what I’m referring to in my previous post, this is the sexism and misogyny I refer to because if I was a dude, he wouldn’t have even tried me like this. Let this be a lesson to all, I’m not for the bullshit. I’m serious about my business and you will not use my likeness without MY permission. When you in front of a boss you treat them like one, like I treat YOU. NO MEANS NO!!!!!!! People have to listen to women and stop questioning them and their intelligence. Speak up, cause when you look someone in the face and they say “I understand. You don’t have to feel pressured to do the video” and they STILL put you in it, it is a violation. It would be great to be able to handle these things privately but why when they aren’t respected?”

Wow.
Not much left to say.

For what it’s worth, here is Palmer’s original post (below):

And here is the video in question, which also features the rapper Fabolous (below):

The video is… uh… interesting… but obviously, Palmer’s accusation of a lack of consent is the big issue here.
And Songz’ response to it all?
A broad message in which he mentions how “I wrote this on a yacht LMAO.”
Seriously.

Here’s Trey Songz’ full response, put up on IG about 13 hours ago (below):


Wow.
And he continued on Twitter, too:

And in an ultimate show of irony, these messages came just hours after Songz fired off this tweet (below):

Wow.
Talk about Trey COMPLETELY not getting it.
TBH, his response is scary…
