Amber Rose and she was having none of it



Amber Rose had to lay down some real talk to Run DMC’s Reverend Run and actor Tyrese Gibson this week.

She was a guest on their OWN TV show, It’s Not You, It’s Men, when they implied that she was getting sexually assaulted because of the way that she dresses.



‘I get sexually assaulted constantly,’ Amber said. ‘When I walk down the street, because people think I’m famous or I’m cool and I’m taking pictures, that they can just grab my ass or put their hand under my skirt or, ”Oh Amber, can I come grab your boobs?’

Rev Run said: ‘They are asking you to do that because of representation of what you are wearing and stuff and what it seems like in their mind what you’re representing.
And Gibson continued: ‘I’m just saying, the comfort-ability that some people find in wanting to touch or grope you… it’s an energy that is sent out there that creates that type of response.’

Rev and Tyrese probably didn’t realise how slut-shaming their statements came across, but Amber soon put them straight.

‘No it doesn’t, and I’m gonna tell you why. If I’m laying down with a man butt-naked and his condom is on, and I say, ”You know what? No. I don’t wanna do this. I changed my mind,’ she explained. ‘That means no. That means f**k no. It doesn’t matter how far I take it or what I have on, when I say no, it means no.’

But then Rev dropped this one: ‘I wasn’t saying… I’ve just heard a quote that was like, “Dress how you wanna be addressed…”‘
