A clip of Michael Rainey Jr. on TyTy James’ livestream spread across the internet on Monday (June 10). Footage from the stream seems to show the 23-year-old entertainer being sexually assaulted.
At one point, Michael Rainey Jr. looks visibly uncomfortable as TyTy James’ sister appears to touch the Power Book II: Ghost star in the crotch area. Thetylilshow host addressed the incident with his live chat audience.
“Word to my mother, I’m trying to literally ignore the s### but I’m getting texts, the energy shifted and n##### just got up and left,” TyTy James said in a live video message.
The social media personality also stated, “This is your crib. It’s about hospitality that means everything. Stop telling me to ignore it because when I tried to ignore it y’all dick-riders were spamming it.”
