@@gigiarmany Thank you. This is what's going over people's head. I believe Christian, however, I do agree with Funky that he was socially irresponsible, now a lot of people are being drugged into this.
I just click this video I really don’t think it Tyler Perry, a lot of people thinks it’s him. I could be wrong. When he when he was shopping All the Queen’s Men and this person came out with silk pajamas and wine I knew it wasn’t him
I have experienced sexual harassment from my mom’s father and two of her brothers. If my mom was not so protective I know i would’ve been sexually assaulted
He can speak as slow as he wants. He can talk about his situation as he pleases. It's his experience. We need to start giving grace to victims. I'm tired of people always questioning the reasons why. Also, Christian said he was not interested in money. This has been bothering him for years. I've been harassed before and it does something to you!!!
Many black people never give grace. It's unbelievable how victims are blamed or they had to do something to receive this type of behavior. It's sickening, especially coming from YOUR OWN.
Absolutely 💯. It's because society believes that this person I like couldn't dare do something so vile. I believe Christian. People in authority can and have used their power to target others to fulfill their own demented and demonic desires. I would not put any of these celebrities on a pedestal.
I know that everything in this mortal world can have positive and negative aspects, but I will never look at being attractive as a "curse". Too many perks and advantages.
I used to watch his lives during the pandemic. He is definitely more than just good looks. He is highly intelligent and seems like he stands on integrity. I always wondered why his career didn’t advance because he is a good actor. I believe every thing he said.
@@divatude314 He definitely stands on integrity. Remember when he called out Steve Harvey for his very mean and careless jokes about the Flint, Michigan water crisis? ...
@@thednation927 Imagine how hard it is to find true love in a world where you're always wondering if people are only your "friends" and "lovers" because they're drawn to your appearance... Some attractive people may be shallow enough to not care about the motives of the people who attach themselves to them. But, for those attractive people who genuinely want real authentic connections just as so many of us do, it has the potential to be a special kind of hell, particularly if they already have deeper insecurities and issues that necessitate having a genuine support group. In those instances, it can actually be very isolating the more attractive you are, because EVERYONE IS TOO BUSY MARVELING AT YOUR FACE AND BODY TO STOP TO WONDER IF YOU'RE ACTUALLY OKAY, HOW YOU'RE DOING TODAY, IF SOMETHING'S BOTHERING YOU, WHAT YOUR OPINION IS, WHAT YOUR DREAMS ARE. They just boil you down to gorgeous person who must have everything you could ever want just handed to you on a silver platter. It really is very dehumanizing sometimes. And that's not even getting into all the people who literally befriend you and get close to you just because they want to use you (sexually and otherwise), or because they like the optics in terms of social status of having a good-looking person around.
We all get harassed, bullied and insulted in this lifetime and that's why we got an HR department, a justice system, a police department, access to a lawyer, family members and most of all we got a mouth. When people wait to find so called justice 10, 20, 40 years later when they see that person old who may have or didn't do that act, they attack with true or false statements about them.
Honestly staying silent does more harm than good. You have victims being quiet while predators move from victim to victim until they come across someone who refuses to go along with it.
The process of speaking up is almost worse than the act itself. During my r@pe kit, the nurse suggested I ask my ex to be more gentle and everything in the process went downhill from there. Sometimes I wish I left silently. The system was not made for victims.
Being loud isn't as grand as people may think. I'm sure you don't mean to, but saying things like not speaking up allows the predator to do it again is putting more guilt on victims where around 5% of victims have rapists who are prosecuted and jailed. What abusers do after the first one is of no fault of the original victim or any subsequent victims. There are more people that protect predators than victims loud as it's kept. Plenty of women with pedo boyfriends, families with pedo relatives, kids with pedo teachers, congregations with pedo pastors, etc. and at the end of it all, the victim is asked why they didn't do this or that.
Just because a person is attractive doesn’t mean they want to be hit on or touched by anyone. I use to say to myself if I wasn’t a pretty little girl maybe I wouldn’t have experienced what happened to me multiple times as a child. This trauma doesn’t go away. Triggers happen more than you think which makes it so hard to forgive and forget the things that happen to you so don’t judge.
I promise it has nothing to do with you and everything to do with the sick, impaired and enabled. *PLEASE work to free yourself from the thoughts and find the strength to exert the coping mechanisms to reduce the trigger effects. I'm giving it from a professional researched & published data* They are the problem - ALWAYS.
Sorry u had to experience abuse from a evil person. Please for your sanity to get professional help so u can heal. Stay in prayer bc God will cover your mind. 🙏❤
Exactly!! And let's be real the power that some of these celebrities hold enough power to have you unalived and get away with it depending on the type of people they have in their corner!!
I stand with him too. None of us know the truth of what happened. We weren't there to witness anything. I just wish he wouldn't withhold the name(s) of his alleged abuser(s). Why spare whom you have all of this disgust for? And if it isn't TP then why isn't he trying to clear TP name??? That's all I'm saying.
I still haven’t said anything. I was 12. I’m 42 now. He’s a fire chief and was married to my Cousin. He’s VERY well known. His son is a perv a well. He use to date Misa. Pdiddy BM.
Even if he was flirty, as a straight man, to get his way, and roles, it is still no reason for a man to keep trying to grab his junk, and jump in the bed with him. That’s unacceptable.
This sounds like a little bit of victim blaming to me. Granted, there are straight men who behave the way you described in the video, but that doesn't mean HE acts like that. Also, I'm pretty sure he put up with all that because he was afraid of being blackballed. And I have definitely seen some gay men repeatedly hit on straigh men who definitely WEREN'T asking for it. Is it something that happens all the time? Of course not. My gay male friends DO NOT do that. But it absolutely DOES happen sometimes.
he did give “disclaimers” up front to how he would approach this topic & the appearance of how it may come across but victim blaming was NEVER the intention. 👍🏾
Christian is a really cool guy and embracive. This is a case of kindness, attractiveness and his demeanor being viewed by the predator as a “weakness” or “oh he gets down because he’s so nice”… That’s not right and is also toxic masculinity.
Exactly this. I don't think he exudes typical "tough but pretty boy" more like a kind person who happens to have these physical attributes. When a predator senses that someone is nice or docile they view them as the perfect prey. I don't think he gave off any vibe that he would be ok with a gay man approaching him like that, just that he was too nice and a sick person tried to take advantage of that/him.
I think he was trying his best to stay working and not catch a charge. So he played it cool to get the most out of the situation. This sounds like textbook sexual harassment in the workplace. Because he did let the slick comments slide the person kept that shit up for years apparently. So looks like Christian was just waiting for the right time to get the guy back. And one thing about it, a predator knows who to go after.
But regardless of sexual orientation or gender the power dynamic is inappropriate and is harassment being unwanted attention, sexual conversations, propositions.
This is the equivalent of saying to a woman who was raped and abused, "what did you wear, was your skirt to short, did you look at him a certain way? A predator needs no reason.
It's easy for people to say "Why didn't he say something earlier" or "Why didn't he press charges" but people don't realize that one victim not only goes against the perpetrator but goes against said perpetrator and the industry backing the perpetrator. It's literally a person going against an army.
As someone who has been violated by someone of power, you instantly think no one will be believe you. Those kind of offenses make you feel guilty, small, stupid, invaluable, and shameful. These people have so many yes-people around them and you are usually dismissed. When you see someone else stand up for themselves and they are heard, it ignites something inside of you that you were unaware of. Nothing made me want to tell one of my experiences more than when someone else spoke up about the same person AND they were believed. I finally felt seen and heard. It gave me the courage to stand up for myself. I commend Christian for standing up for himself and he is in my prayers ❤
I have been there as well. I never thought to make a long, meandering video for the world to speculate on and describe being actually assaulted by someone else and leave the world to speculate.
@@martell203 I would pass out if I had to do that. So, someone doing it without anyone asking is beyond comprehension for me. Hopefully he gets the closure he needs
@@plantbasedunicorn7995 Same. I told 2 people close to right after it happened and then didn’t speak on it for years. Nearly 15 years have passed now and I would NEVER do what he’s doing. That’s why it’s hard for me to believe him. AND I’m tired of hearing this type of stuff. Makes me think too much. There are so many other things that we could talk about, but this everyday is getting overwhelming.
This is a sad take, Wow! Funky! You should've just not said anything. Just becuase a man shows uo handsome, or dressed sexy, doesn't mean he's "looking for it" just like what we say about women( and I'm a woman). I'm sure a lot of men are going through this, and this commentry, is a reason men don't come forward, and women
Yet, Funky playing two sides of the fence, because HE as a gay man UNDERSTAND'S, the mentality of gay men. So, he's really throwing Christian under the bus, meanwhile PROTECTING gay men. Obviously, Christian in some way led these undercover monsters on, otherwise; Knock YOUR BOSS out, run to the police ....Gtfoh!
Sometimes our opinions need to be kept to ourselves especially when they sound so out of touch with reality. The man was abused! Not everyone is trying to get money out of it. My goodness, this sounds ridiculous.
Thank you!!!!! His commentary is disgusting. No one ask for sexual harassment. Christian is hurting and by the video you can tell. I am praying for him he doesn’t deserve this treatment.
I believe Christian and I stand by him 100%…..I pray that he does whatever he sees fit, in his own timing. Also, NONE of this was his fault. NO ONE asks to be harrassed. Male or female. It’s ALWAYS a violation. Period ‼️
I totally agree with every word you just said. Sounds like Funky is jealous of Christian to me. The audacity of him to blame the victim because he's handsome and Funky is not.
This is incredibly sad. You are right; people like you are the reason people hesitate to come out with their stories. He says what happened to him from his vantage point and folks quick to blame the victim. Why do people always need to “express how they feel” “I need to tell the truth” about someone else’s experience. Either express support or keep your “true” feelings to yourself. It doesn’t help us move forward. It just keeps perpetuating these negative tropes.
I don’t think no one should take a public stand and question someone else’s experiences, FD could have kept him and his spirits quite on this one and to say that he was a participant when he clearly said he made it cleared that he didn’t give into the pressure. Also if FD was going to use his platform to make his opinion known he should have at least listened to the full video.
@@Kendra_p how would anyone know his opinion unless they first heard it and hearing it doesn’t mean you have to agree with it - he himself kept saying that he knew some were not going to agree with him
THIS. When I tell you the stories I could tell?!!!! Men with money and power aren't used to NO. It doesn't usually end well. BUT the thing is if it is TP Christian literally KEPT working with the man. that's what doesn't make sense. Like at all. I get u need the money but... For years??? I get he tried to forgive him but. .. I can forgive and not work for or with you. Annnnnd CASSIE FILED PAPERWORK. Christian went to SOCIAL MEDIA. That's narcissism, which is why I agree with Funky on something ain't CLEAN in the milk. But I do believe him something happened to that man.
Exactly. I met him in August 2023 at a seminar, and he brought this up. My previous hairdresser, who happens to be a gay man, loves to try to get at straight men. Men he knows are straight. So, that's not true. If the billionaire person has other men on the payroll, the billionaire may have viewed Christian Keyes as a challenge.
He never said he was sitting somewhere not able to go on. The man said he wanted it to STOP. He’s saying something in an attempt to get said perpetrator to STOP. We be so busy trying to read something extra into things instead of simply listening to what the man said. This happens every freaking day in “normal” work situations. Just imagine what it looks like in the Hollywood circle.
Then HE should contact the authorities in order to MAKE it stop as he says. Just telling everyone on the internet without mentioning who is NOT helping the situation.
When a woman says it, SHE DOES NOT GAIN SYMPATHY! She is told she is a liar, asked what she had on to contribute to her own harassment, and is accused of lying to tear down the community. THAT is what happens
@LIFEWITHSHERIDAN you were bitching about SYMPATHY, not justice. Those are two different things, booboo, and they often come from two different groups. Also, what proof do you have that they're actually VICTIMS? LIKE I SAID, TRY TF AGAIN, HO.
His testimony actually makes sense from a psychoanalysis POV. Deviant psychopaths will push your boundaries and want to take something that you would never freely give.
People need to respect each other period. Even if a person is flirty or too friendly that doesn’t give anyone a right to molest, rape or sexually assault them. If a person is giving you mixed signals ask them ”do you like me ?”or ”you make me feel uncomfortable when you say or do this and that… ”victims are definitely not to be blamed. Imagine raping someone just because they’re too friendly.
I understand what you’re saying, but in gay-straight male relationship, there are different dynamics. Some of these straight guys will pander to gay men and do anything for that attention until it gets real or they feel exposed, then they run back to their heterosexual privilege for cover. I had a straight friend who did that, even when I resisted, he still wanted to test the waters. We were chilling in my room one day and he insisted he wanted to watch porn with me. I warned him that it was risky but he didn’t mind. So we smoked and watched porn, including gay porn. We both got horny and then I asked to suck him off, that was when it hit him. He said no and I respected it. Later he went around telling our other friends that I sexually harassed him. He was afraid that I’d tell people, so he did it first. He made people see me as a creep but didn’t tell them the part he played in it. Why are you (a straight man) laying in bed shirtless with a GAY MAN watching porn? What did you think was going to happen? I mean it’s not a Disney movie. You knew damn well what you were doing. Sure I must respect his boundaries regardless, but he left the door open. So yeah, I agree with Funky. Some of these so-called straight guys can do the most when nobody is watching, and play the victim in public when their masculinity feels threatened.
I usually rock with funky. But not today. I don’t care what Christian did or what kind of “signals” he was giving. It doesn’t diminish what he experienced. Funky, you’re wrong for this.
@@anime-nn9kl Actually it does if he gave off signals that he could possibly be interested and then switch up like was being harrassed. Let's be very clear if a gay man approaches a Str8 Man, Trying to tempt him in sexually engaged that man is gonna knock the s*** out that gay man!! You absolutely wouldn't come back at him a second time if he let you know the first time that he wasn't with that gay s****. I think that's what funky was saying he's in that world he knows very well if you approach a straight man and he's not about that you might get your teeth knocked the f*** out. We gotta stop saying the people with the powers if you've been recording them expose them privately or publicly the harassment would stop. Why are you still working currently right now with TP.
Exactly the entire commentary is extremely contradictory. I am just shaking my head at his remarks. Like how can you open your mouth to just say this man wasn’t affected by the experience!!
It’s sad that anyone would believe that a victim must have given the assailant a signal that it’s okay to cross the line with them. Sad! This is one reason why men, especially black men, don’t speak out about these things more. SMH
Yes, it is sad. It doesn't matter how good-looking someone is or what kind of signal someone may think the person is giving. No one should touch another unless they know for sure that the person is willing. I do not think this is a money grab; however, due to the timeframe, I want to see receipts and proof. I also agree that he needs to exonerate those who haven't done anything because people speculate, and it could hurt someone who's not involved.
Right! You don't have to give a predator a signal!!! What is funky talking about? So all the men and women who have been harassed or assaulted, gave the predator signals??? Funky obviously does not realize how dangerous his words are!!!! The predators misuse their power and have many intimidation tactics.
The only "signals" that I can see without getting yourself a black eye or deleted, is the signal between A&B, straight male to straight female, straight female to straight male. Not gay male to what is possibly a straight male or L chick to a straight female (strictly _ickly) . You're asking for serious problems then. 👀 Back in the day that was commonplace. No need to even guess. Today a lot of the T are not even informing the straight males, they're just hitting on them hoping to get lucky. And that's totally wrong! They're asking for trouble.
@annanims7876 ... Agreed, I was like what r u talking abt? Just cause someone is fine does not give someone the right to harass you. Signal or not. Funky lost me with that one.
This whole diatribe was CRINGE AF! Just because you say “I’m not victim shaming” does not mean that YOU aren’t victim shaming. This man is a walking talking contradiction. Christian said that he purposefully let the statute of limitations run out because it wasn’t about money, did he miss that part. This is just ALL wrong. Funky needs to just shut up while he still has a following because he is blaming the victim. Sad!
Ain’t you the one always saying “Pay me for my pain?” Why shouldn’t he or Cassie or whoever get financially compensated for what they were put through. Thats the whole reason we have a civil court.
Predators don't need to be signaled for them to come onto you. Especially when they have your career and livelihood in their hands. When someone has power over you, they may feel emboldened to try you.
Exactly! So is he saying that innocent children who are molested by predators are signaling too? That line of thinking is ridiculous and dangerous and is definitely victim blaming, no matter how many times he claims that's not what he's doing. That is exactly what he's doing. Smh.
Exactly! I know plenty of straight men who were solicited, as a minor, by men in the church. The men held power in that community. The ones that were "saved," had mothers/aunts/grandmothers who also had power in the church community. We call it homophobia but, it is actually PTSD.
This is problematic in so many ways and a prime example of why people don't feel safe speaking out, especially men. From my understanding, he purposely let the statue of limitations run out so it could not be shrugged off as a money grab. This is sad.
I have worked with SEVERAL women that slept with the operations manager at my job WILLINGLY but got angry bc he dropped them and/or didn’t leave his wife got mad and went to corporate HR. It’s naive to not know this goes on A LOT
@@CMi-em6fs that part. It angers me to see comments like @micadadeluxe5690 because it's so many men sitting in jail right now because someone decided to lie on them taking everything away from these men only to find out they shouldn't have been in jail at all. It's so dangerous to say believe people at their word. What should be asked is where are the facts. Why are you not seeking legal counsel
I agree with your sentiments. I also think its ashame that he's letting multiple people names that may have nothing to do with any of it. He shouldve waited until he was FULLY ready to disclose.
This video just popped up again and I realized he never did come forward with anything. There's been no update and he's been quiet. So I guess Funky was right, he didn't end up taking this to the cops or taking it further
There’s an angle being ignored here. In high risk political environments, reporting anyone places a scarlet letter on your back and perhaps he stayed silent to solidify his career and enhance his credibility.
He's been recording this person for years. Explain his fear of exposing the perpetrators, and do these recordings have his voice recorded, as well? He said that it wasn't a money grab. Of course, it is a money grab by way of employment security and possibly damages. I agree 100 💯 with Q.
I think that's the point. He can't say it isn't Tyler because that's exactly who it is or why wouldn't he clear him? During the live he made sure to say it wasn't Cheryl Pepsi Riley❤
This is bull. Here we go shaming the victims. So are you saying that all the females who are sexually harassed and assaulted somehow gave a signal to their aggressors? The same goes for males .
That’s not what I said at all nor was that what I was implying. In fact, I DISTINCTLY pointed out that things with men are totally different. So how you lumped women into that statement is beyond me. Comprehension is not a friend of yours
@funkydineva I responded to her comment. You elaborated on your point after her comment was made. I totally comprehend your point. Men and women in these situations are totally different. Woman say things and think sexually about men that is inappropriate and will not be called on it.
It’s so sad how much hate and criticism some ppl have for victims after they speak out but never have smoke for the offender. This is one of the reasons why some victims don’t speak up and tell their truth. I’m sorry Christian and others experienced this and I pray he and others get the justice they deserve!
They’re not a victim-just by speaking out to the public because the public wasn’t there. So if the public question what they’re saying it’s not victim blaming- in my opinion these type cases should be handled strictly through the courts- and nothing should be shared to the public until the case has been decided through the courts. This protects the plaintiff and defendant…all human beings lie. PERIODT
@@yakitalove1230 If an individual is discussing a terrible event that happened to them regardless of whether they go to court for it or not, they’re still a victim. Courts don’t decide who a victim is, the offender does. Yes people lie, and they also tell the truth. I support ALL victims and pray they get justice!
@@cocomac2201 well said. I don’t know what that other person was going on about 🙄. Courts get things wrong Teo often for me to believe they are the only ones that can decide who is a victim. Sometimes they only make the right decision for black people when they see they have community support.
This is nothing new. The casting couch worked both ways. Many men in Hollywood just haven’t spoken out. They took that 100k and went about their way, which is their right. Just like Christian had the right to turn it down.
The sad part is , let’s say he’s used his “good looks” to move up in his career, once he says “no” to a person that should be respected. It should be no if and it buts about it! The man didn’t want the harassment and that’s it!
Funky, while I can appreciate your take on this subject, I have this to say: If the “level of participation” you’re talking about is anything equivalent to something like wearing clothes that are slightly revealing, smiling a little extra, batting an eye or whatever, then that’s the same thing women do all the time in similar circumstances. It doesn’t mean the person should therefore expect to get groped or turned into anyone’s sex slave. I think it’s a little irresponsible and intellectually dishonest to suggest that just because a man may engage in that kind of social signaling that that must mean he was “asking for it”. The same criticism gets leveled against women who complain about SH and SA all the time and it’s just as wrong when it goes the other way. That’s all.
Funky, I dated this Guy and he had one sister that was Gay, a Butch. I never treated her any different than I treated anybody else. One day, she asked me for a ride and I was taking her to her destination koand this is what happened: She started crying so bad that I had to pull off the highway. I asked her, what in the World was Wrong with her. She told me that I was the only one that had ever treated her like a Human Being. She said, she know I was straight as an arrow but why she could not meet somebody like me. She said, everybody including her brother that I was dating acted like something was Wrong with her and her Family. Funky, I literally cried with her. I told her I view her as a Human Being and a Woman, no MATTER what her sexual preference is. I do not hold things against those that are different. However, I am spiritual and I do not judge anyone who do not believe in what I believe in. I told her one day she would find somebody that accepts her for who she is. She died of AIDS, ten years later.
My opinion, I don’t think it’s a money grab but what’s wrong with someone paying you for all the things they put you through I feel like he should get every dollar he deserve anybody that overstepped their boundaries with him if he told you that’s not what he’s into and you continue to do this, you deserve everything you get
Gay men can be super insensitive this is a perfect example smh🤦🏾♀️...victim shaming, implying that Christian took advantage of his appearance, implying he's a 'tease'...Christian need to sue them and send a message 😡
Agreed. 👍🏾 How can you keep saying things implying Christian asked for it. 🤔 Claudia has been very vocal about her SA. No one "asked for it." It is never the victim's fault. Gay, Heterosexual, Bi, Pan cat or dog. The man tried him multiple times. 🤦🏾♀️ This video was disappointing.
Shameful Q.Whats your problem?That happens in life. Period.No always means No.Stop Q terrible.How do you know Q?male bashing.Go see your therapist asap😮
Especially gay men who look like Dineva. It is subconscious jealousy because in a way, they wish they were attractive enough to have things like this happen to him
If you didn’t watch the whole video, then u shouldn’t have given this same long on and on either. Why would this man put himself in this position for you and others to do what you just did? He is on AllRise, doing singing gigs, in movies, how much more attention does he need. Who would want to be labeled as weak, on purpose for staying silent? Especially when we know how cruel bloggers, podcasters, media and fans can be. Who would sign up for being all over the internet for something like this on purpose? Make it make sense
One of the issues that I’m having is that he definitely discussed, in depth, instances of women co-stars groping him on set, as well. Why is that not a part of this discussion at all?
Because the commentator only wants to report on what fits his agenda. It’s as if he didn’t even watch the whole video. Because if he had he would’ve heard that he let the statute of limitations run out but he recorded it and sending it to the police
I know men who were repeatedly propositioned after they clearly said no. Some people are just predators. Some people’s egos can not take rejection. Sad but true.
But why continue to work with such predator for 20 years if the behaviour was so repulsive, off-putting and gave u nightmares? 😮 I cant seem to wrap my head around accepting the predator's money and choosing to be in the predator's environment for 20 years after being harassed and assaulted.
CK is not a predator. Therefore, he may have had difficulty understanding how sick the individual is. He seemed genuinely surprised when the person got into bed with him. He also said the person presented themselves as a mentor/brother. Seems like it was initially hard for him to accept that the person is a predator. Not to mention, if this person is powerful, he probably had fear connected to challenging him. Overall, it’s unfortunate that men and women have to deal with these sick people.
@@TB-ev6kk Right. He is an educated man, who was smart enough to start collecting evidence from 2005. It is not farfetched to think he was collecting this evidence for a big payday in the future. I can understand the initial shock about being propositioned by a mentor, but that initial shock cannot last for 20 years. The fact that he started collecting evidence from 2005 shows that he knew exactly what was happening. Further, he wouldnt be personally challenging him in Court...what he alleges is a crime...once its a crime it is the State that brings the charges...evidence in a case works the same way against powerful ppl as poor people ..ask R Kelly & Harvey Weinstein.
@@poohbita_88 We don’t know who the perpetrator is. Therefore, we don’t know the details of their business together. The focus has shifted to the victim and assigning motive instead of focusing on the real problem, Predators. I don’t know what CK motives are. What I know is that powerful people are allowed to prey on others. Anyone with knowledge of the legal system and the entertainment industry knows that they are corrupt. If evidence worked the same for all, u wouldn’t have powerful people getting off after committing horrific crimes. In fact, many are never prosecuted. You wouldn’t have R Kelly continuing to hurt children when there was clear evidence of abuse (years before he was indicted). U wouldn’t have Weinstein terrorizing women for years after victims reported him (before he was indicted). Power invokes fear. The reality is, the entertainment industry is corrupt. It’s not as simple as presenting evidence. Reporting an abuser can be the kiss of death for one’s career and to make matters worse, the person may not be prosecuted.
I just saw a comment on Empressive Channel’s video regarding this issue that I wholeheartedly agree with: “I wish Christian wouldn’t have dropped this until he was ready to tell it ALL. Either say who it is or who it isn’t. But to put it out like this, open for speculation, is only self serving. I feel like he used social media to send a message to his abuser. Once the message is received, it will be handled behind closed doors. And then he won’t bring it up again until he wants something.”
There is nuisance to this situation & two things can be true. Do attractive ppl leverage their looks to get favor? Yes! Is it ok to proposition someone or use coercion to sexually harass someone? NO. Only the latter is a crime. Power dynamics & money are the equalizer to a physically more“strong” person. If the boss is hanging opportunities over you head to get you to comply to their advances that’s illegal. Coercion isn’t genuine consent.
@sermoninstituteforsuccess5568That's why I can't even finish the video. Terry Crews alleged that he was sexually assaulted by producer at Hollywood party. He said his first instinct was to beat him down but felt his stern negative reaction in that setting was enough. According to Dineva, this means Terry was sending out gay vibes and I don't believe Dineva at all.
This is the first time I’ve ever had to whole heartedly disagree with Funky. I’ve always respected his perspective on topics, but this… I can not. This is a very serious accusation and a victim should not be further victimized, especially if you weren’t there to witness it! You wrong Dineva 😢
I totally agree with you … This is wrong and he didn’t even watch the entire video… I can hear a lot of jealousy, in the under stone of this entire MESSage… sounds like jealousy to me..
At first, I ain’t gone lie Q you irritated me at the beginning but as I kept listening I agree more and more. This is definitely a conversation that needs to be had and men also need a safe space, sexual orientation-body size-physical attractiveness be damned.
Damn the man has a right to choose how he wants to reveal his truth even if it takes hours to do so. This move of his takes alot of bravery. I feel like the world is harsh. After twenty years in the industry myself I can relate to Christian sooo much and there were so many moments in his long ass venting session that I felt in my heart. And omg you lost me on the Christian must of sent signals. There are powerful predators who just don’t take no. And just because you live off your beauty don’t make you a prostitute. Come on Funky you lost me on that comment. And furthermore Cassie and his case are apples and oranges. I am really disappointed in your perspectives on this post…It’s givin haterish vibes Funky. Based on what he has shared this would grounds for a person to want to make change in the industry. I hope he does succeed that. Cuz men on women crimes in the industry are on blast but it’s time for victims of male on male crimes to be normalized with coming out. I hope he gets a bag and I hope the predator will think twice about doing business as usual.
I agree that sexual harassment is egregious in any profession or personal environment! I too have experience with the mechanisms of HOLLYWOOD! I just don't know who he is saving or enlightening- these sexual advances and/or harassment is ancient HOLLYWOOD Culture. Is it wrong? - yes. But it's HOLLYWOOD. You play or you don't play and deal with the consequences (he has demonstrated there is a choice). I am not trying to blame the victim- but what is a victim and What is a real victim?🤔
I'm only 11 min in on this video and you are proving Christian right. When he said alot of people will villianize him and refuse to believe bc of who that person is and yall place them on a pedestal and who ever told you which I'm sure what Claudia was dead ass wrong!!!
He didn’t say he was sitting around distraught! He has been holding in all of the experiences that has happened with this person and I’m sure it’s made him feel “a way” WHAT EVER THAT WAY IS- he is allowed to feel it and address it how and when he sees fit! Lastly, so what if he wants to be paid for his pain! Sometimes that’s all you can get and it comes with exposing the person! You are out of line for saying he wants sympathy. He can tell his story how ever he wants to! Let’s see how you tell your story and how people criticize it. One thing I agree with is he should’ve gone to the police first!
I totally agree with you. Funky sounds like an insensitive idiot and He's jealous of Christian because he's handsome and Funky is not. That man can tell his story when and where he wants. Funky has always felt some kind of way about straight men or jealous of them.
OMG Funky! I agree with your sentiments wholeheartedly. I bet his phone is ringing off the hook with offers to silence him. He knew exactly what he was doing, and I highly doubt he’ll be filing a police report. This includes all guilty parties outside of the two billionaires he eluded to in his video.
Noone invites sexual harassment. As a woman even if a straight man touches me inappropriately doesn't mean I invite it. I had a boss one time that loved to kick the girls in the behind literally. I had a college teacher who put his hand on my thigh and then tell me I was not going to fail his chemistry class when I scheduled a one on one meeting with him. I didn't invite it. Their attraction to me is not my fault.
@sermoninstituteforsuccess5568 Not at all. I was not getting chemistry at all and had major concerns. When he put his hand on my thigh it shocked me so much I ended up dropping the class.
I disagree. Plenty of half naked, attention-seeking folks invite sexual harassment. I used to be one of those before I grew up. Nobody walking around with their ass and titties on display is not inviting sexual harassment and it’s only complained about if it comes from someone undesirable. You can ignore reality all you want.
@@bigmona2741you're speaking from your own experiences. Not every attractive person uses that to get to where they want. Foolish is thinking that you know every attractive person's mindset.
I don't feel that he was victim blaming at all. Has a gay man himself he explained why he felt that there may be something more to the story. I believe that this happened to Christian as well. However, like Funky, I believe that there is a little more to the story. Still it shouldn't have happened.
He said in the 40 minute video that he INTENTIONALLY waited until the statue of limitations was expired in hopes it would add more validity to his truth so folks wouldn't think it was a "money grab"
A money grab does not need to operate in the legal forum dear...he said he has tapes right? He showed the tapes right? He made sure to let the world and*** his alleged abuser know that he has the tapes - do you know what that is worth??
He doesn’t need to sue to get money out of this person. If this person is as high powered as Christian claims (which I believe) just the threat of ruining their reputation would make the pay up but then that would be potentially extortion on Christian’s part.
Funky im sorry but anyone who has been sexually harrassed or assaulted should be able to prosecute and get paid!! If billionaire men who are bold enough to play themselves, should be sued or in jail. Christian needs to feel no shame! They didn't! 19:00
I believe if someone has been sexually harassed and/or assaulted, that they can manage their news anyway that THEY deem fit. They deserve ciminal AND civil ($$) justice, so all we can o isbsit back and watch. What does "pure intentions" even mean? Why does the victim always have to appease the public but the perpetrator gets to wreak havoc and STILL gets the benefit of the doubt. This ish is crazy!!
Its sad that this man can't express his experience something that been hurting him for a minute. Just so the media to turn it around and make it as he was the problem. Shame on you because this is the reason why men are still in the dark.
Funky, I was just literally having this conversation with a friend on the year of exposure which is 2023!! And I said the 💩 is about to hit the fan! But for those saying why he didn't come out sooner or why did he wait... some people don't understand the danger that comes with speaking up in the entertainment and music industry. They'll either unalive you or make it very hard for you to EVER work again!! And not just in the industry something so small as getting a job at Walmart. And that's scary!! And 15 years ago the internet wasn't what it is now!! But the real kudos goes to Cassie for throwing her hat up and ALL victims of the industry following suit and coming forth!!💯💯💯
Girl shut up nobody is that powerful to say “ oohhh you accused so and so of SA we can’t hired you at Burger King or wal mart lol shut up” and I feel like if you know why not speak up so you can put that awful person behind bars
@@Agntculboik9yes they are that powerful. Thats why if you accuse some of sexual assault at work HR will go ahead and let you go. Regardless of it it’s true or not.
Why would you sleep over your “bosses” house if you’re just there for business …and you don’t have some type of friendship or relationship??Then invite another grown man INTO your home to do business…if you are not friends or something more…would you invite your work “boss” over your house to discuss a work opportunity? Especially if they’ve been harassing you sexually….That’s just weird. Everybody already knows about the casting couch in Hollywood, so why would someone keep putting himself in these situations for years, by handling work outside of work spaces like the casting office or with his agent or manager at their office…I just have questions..
I understand how you feel Q, but sometimes powerful people have a different way of thinking, and won’t accept NO as an answer. If you’re just being respectful by speaking and/or smiling, or engaging in a conversation with certain people, in their mind they think you like them, or you want them sexually. Trust and believe that is not always the case. I watched Christians entire video and he was shook because he thought the guy was a mentor to him. When he said no, the person apologized, but went and grabbed between his legs. I would have punched or kicked him in his nuts and got the hell up out of dodge.
In all honesty by watching the video in its entirety, it was definitely not for a money grab. He stated these incidents have surpassed the statutes of limitations and he is not seeking compensation just justice.
I believe Christian too. HOWEVER... My question is "Why protect a man or men whom abused you, broke your trust, and whom you're so disgusted with?" You shook the hornets nest and left everyone playing the guessing game; and if it's not TP why doesn't he get on live and clear TP name???? Say their name and free yourself from this.
Your exact thoughts and opinion is exactly why people do not and are afraid to speak out. You can't speak to his experience and how he should have handled it. You can't say why he was approached, yall's experiences are different. As uncommon as it is, there are still men with integrity.
I empathize with him bc I know how hard it is to vocalize your sexual assault. There’s never a “perfect” victim. Ppl will poke holes in their story and ask why they did/didn’t do something before, during, and after the assault. Sexual harassment/Abuse/rape rarely gets reported let alone a conviction if there is a report. He was groped and that’s hard to prove without evidence. Reminds me of what happened to Terry Crews. The person who did this can intimidate and blacklist him from the industry. Also, if he named the abuser, he can be sued for defamation.
I agree with everything you said except the last sentence. In order for a claimant to win a defamation suit, the claimant must prove that the statement was false, given with malicious intent, published, and caused harm to the claimant. Christian states that he has recorded audio of the harassment, so the claimant would likely be unable to prove that Christian's statements are false. The plaintiff likely wouldn't even be able to meet that very first element in a defamation claim, which would negate the rest of the claim.
I think the reason a lot of people did not respond to Terry Crews the same way is because he says a lot of problematic things. A lot of people just don't like him so they didn't really care in my opinion.
@@Wildflowers2022 Exactly! Realistically, you can't be a complete anti-blk raKEWN, yet expect an outpouring of empathy when things happen to you. So, I think it wasn't that people didn't believe Terry and wouldn't have otherwise ridden for him. It's the fact that Terry doesn't ride for Black folks, and thus, couldn't realistically expect any nonexistent activist energy to be returned when the shoe landed on the other foot.
the sad part is colorism plays a huge part in this whole situation… There wasn’t even a quarter of sympathy for Terry Crews when he actually named and called out the sex offender who has had so much power n influence. Everyone laughed & criticized him for it. Christian has the light skin privilege and pretty privilege but he is losing me with the gaslighting of it all on social media. You see Tyler Perry getting ate up and if it’s not him than say it so he can stop getting dragged ! NO SHADE BUT ITS GIVING HIM 😅BUT STILL OTHERS ARE GETTING ATE UP TOO
@@braxtonlebron Chris isn’t no itty bitty committy either … to me it’s definitely the shades of black between them. One is more palatable to societies eyes and the perfect victim if u may. Christian is Cassie and Cassie is Christian if you get my drift … Terry is the loud black obnoxious woman hmmm tiffany haddish if u may. SN: i am just using examples lol i am nor do i promote any kind of disrespect to any victim or shades of black
@@tamelblondell5005 I just saw Christian on set. He is small compared to Terry. Terry also panders to white audiences so they do not want to hear him complain but ok
@@braxtonlebron hell TD Jakes is small compared to Terry but we can’t act like Chris is more palatable and more of the victim in society eyes because of his skin and pretty privilege
Exactly, he immediately exposed the perp, and he had way more to lose than this guy who I'm sorry but was pretty much a B lister and he can't even say a name? Terry is owed an apology.
Christian has my sympathy. It’s sickening. This is a difficult situation to be in. I believe names need to be mentioned because I see how this is causing issues with people not knowing who - when people know who it is.
He claims he will release the tapes so if that’s going to happen why not just name names? It’s almost like that live was the single and we are waiting for the album.
I agree to an extent. These people made Epstein unalive himself, people who speak like Mr. Keyes gotta watch themselves. I think he knows what's happening or what's about to happen and I swear he needs to stay prayed up because lord these people demonic.
It’s not a money grab. He said he allowed the statute of limitations expire because it is not about the money. This man is in real Pain. I respect your opinion
I don't understand why he allowed this to happen year after year after year and when you finally say something you go directly to the internet and not the police and didn't say who it was or wasn't. Now he's trending and reading comments saying if he mentioned names it would break our hearts...NO IT WON'T!!!! If a MF sexually abused me for years oh, you gonna know it and i don't give AF who heart gets broken. Why is he protecting his abuser? 🤔 I definitely agree that something ain't right.
And I think he also said he’s been recording secretly for years so if you started recording in 2005, then you were setting this up from the beginning even though I still believe it happened to him I still believe he started recording years ago setting things up so that things didn’t go his waysorry but not sorry
If this actually happened to him, he has every right to want a pay out. I also find it interesting 🤔 that Quintin has a problem with this man possibly wanting to get paid when Quintin always says, "pay me for my pain". If someone wants to be paid for their pain, they will be well with in their right.
@@NamasteInYourLane Quinton literally knows he sounds rediculous and then sounds rediculous. He sounds exactly like a straight male talking about a woman.
If its not Tyler Perry than he should at least say that because its irresponsible of him to let the Court of Public opinion run rampant and acuse Tyler.. if it aint him.
I used to have a gay friend that I lost contact with but when we use to hang out at clubs or where ever he use to always hit in straight men he didn’t care. Pls understand these straight men never gave him a reason to think it was ok but that’s just what he did. He use to always say that he preferred straight men. My friend and I would have arguments because I didn’t agree with his behavior, but I knew a few people like that, and because of it I wouldn’t hang around them as much because I knew that one day it was going to cause problems and I didn’t want to be in the middle of it but I’m just saying that a straight man doesn’t necessarily have to give a gay man a reason to hit on them.
@@CarmenSD Any man that would sleep with a man is definitely not a straight man. They are lying to themselves if they say that they have had a straight man before. Those are either down low men or masculine gay/bisexual men.
I think that we may have had the same gay, male friend in common. I know . . . a gay man who is exactly like that. His behavior is a huge part of the reason why we are no longer friends. I would constantly tell him to stop harassing these “straight” men. The “straight men” seemed slightly uncomfortable, but they did not ward him off . . . So . . . I don’t know . . .
@@1Goddess76 could we all be possibly talking about the same person, but for real this must be a thing. Because dude was only attracted to Straight men😬😡🤬
I thought he was in pain, angry, reliving it, and in deep regret for not reporting it to potentially help others sooner. I never felt he was after money or that he needed to rush his point. I'm not sure why social media was his choice. Maybe an interview with someone who could help him?
I understand the idea of “not dishonoring myself”, but everything doesn’t need to be said. If you think it’s a cash grab after Cassie then that’s what you think but you didn’t need to say it. It didn’t add or take away from your video in a positive light. If anything it inferred that anyone filing a lawsuit after Cassie is doing it for that purpose so you’re hurting a lot more than helping. Sometimes y’all tea channels need to learn discernment between what is necessary to say and what isn’t.
This is his channel and he can tell you how he feels personally if you didn't want to hear his point of view You shouldn't have tuned in No One forced You to Listen.
It’s what we’re all thinking. 🤷🏽♀️ people like you kill me getting mad at others for saying what you know is the truth. Why does speaking truth out loud irritates peoples demons???
@@Bdragonlover123 demons? Are you crack? I also left my opinion. And if you’re thinking it’s a cash grab then that’s on you. I never thought that. You sound like the demon to me trying to make others feel like their experience isn’t genuine. You can exit left too raggedy
Apparently you didn't watch the whole 40 minutes because Christian specifically said that the statute of limitations is up for what happened to him because this doesn't have anything to do with money. He's pissed for the same reason Cassie was pissed he was continually violated and harassed by someone who has power and was a gatekeeper in Hollywood. So he was sure to keep everything recorded and expose their asses. I agree with you
I am not coming from a place of vanity but I have always gotten A LOT of attention from both men and women. Yes, being attractive does have many benefits but it also draws quite a bit of unwanted advances from people at times. I have NEVER purposefully used my appearance to get things that I want. However , I’ve been aware of being treated better or given free or extra of something because of my looks. Regardless of Christian’s sexuality, it is not the right of anyone to blatantly throw themselves at another person. I have numerous examples of coworkers & supervisors, and a manager who absolutely crossed the line with their advances and I am certain that I had done nothing to lead them to believe I was interested.
Q, let’s be real here. The second he says it’s Tyler Perry or it’s not Tyler Perry the game is over for him! If he says it’s not TP, whom everybody seems to want it to be, public interest on a massive scale will vanish! People will say he’s lying now and that TP paid him off! If he says it is TP then ALL of the interest and focus will shift to destroying Tyler Perry like it’s starting to do now. Tyler Perry has already been stained and villainized irreparably by this. The way it was done is shifty, shady and underhanded. The prey has now become the predator! He’s set up Tyler Perry without taking responsibility for his actions which lends itself to your point that Mr. Keyes put himself in a position to allow this to go on for years to reap the benefits of advancing his career and cashing in on the situation. This is in no way, shape or form a Cassie/Diddy situation. And there are more salacious details missing from the story that may highlight Mr. Keyes capitulation and acquiescence to the advances of the perpetrator of said actions. I’ll wait for the details of the police report and court filings if, like you say , it gets that far. Which I 💯believe like you it won’t.
I recently went through a situation with my job where I had to go to HR on someone because of harassment. I don't know what's going on in the world but it's really sad that a person can't make a living, do them, be attractive, intelligent, and not be bothered by unwanted comments #This world ...smh
I completely agree!! I recently had to do the same thing…on my new job, no less. It created a very uncomfortable situation for me. I stay as far away from this man as possible. 🙏🏾💯🙏🏾
Sorry to hear that you had to go through such a HORRIBLE situation ESPECIALLY at your place of work! I was STALKED before Very SCARY situation and wouldn't wish that on my WORSE ENEMY! People Ain't 💩
thats right-:( sex is everywhere- even on commercials- its a proven fact that what we watch and listen to- affects us..... and with this slutrap- ig, onlyfans- we wonder why people are acting so awful- thinking they can do ANYTHING to anyone.... we gotta come together and STOP it all- like NOW.... Its only gonna get worse - i think its their agenda to make everyone turned out.
Absolutely...... I started to go to HR but then I didn't want the job anymore. I was tired and ready to leave for other reasons. Sometimes I hate that we do this because it opens up the door for it to happen to the person who comes behind you. It just didn't occur to me to document and put something down on paper despite the fact that I was leaving. That way a paper trail could be left behind for the next victim. I am a NP but baby I never had as many problems as I had is when I was a supervisor for the medical department for a school system. Teachers are whores!!
Que is it safe to say, you will NEVER be approached like this in Hollywood?? I don’t think you have the looks, body or personality, to garner that kinda attention from these creeps. No need to protect you. Whew 😂
Him not saying who it is, is where I took issue for the very same reasons. Because the circle of billionaires is so small, he knew people were going to start guessing. It’s not fair for the innocent to catch strays. I’m of the believe that even though trauma you still have a responsibility to tell your story responsibly and that means not leave room for interpretation. If you’re not ready to publicly name the person, then continue to work with a therapist until you’re ready to go public. It’s only fair.
This is equivalent to a man saying a woman's attire was the reason for her being assaulted. The gay men you know aren't billionaires with power, Q. Those persons are not at risk for getting beat up if they approach a straight man, whether aggressively or passively. Had the perpetrator been heterosexual, your response would be different and you know it. This was an insensitive response.
Why do people never dissect the predators but dissect the victims ?
IKR?!!!
he has not named any body we could dissect tho..
@@gigiarmany Thank you. This is what's going over people's head. I believe Christian, however, I do agree with Funky that he was socially irresponsible, now a lot of people are being drugged into this.
Well we know it’s Tyler Perry lol
Technically we don't know who the predator is in this situation
Sadly I think more people have experienced sexual abuse, assault and/or harassment than not.
Absolutely. People are still learning that they were assaulted because of how normal some people’s actions are with little to no consequences.
I just click this video I really don’t think it Tyler Perry, a lot of people thinks it’s him. I could be wrong. When he when he was shopping All the Queen’s Men and this person came out with silk pajamas and wine I knew it wasn’t him
For sure.
Of course it's more than not, because some of us ( me) don't ever tell anyone. It's one of those things that we'll have correct percentages on that.
I have experienced sexual harassment from my mom’s father and two of her brothers.
If my mom was not so protective I know i would’ve been sexually assaulted
He can speak as slow as he wants. He can talk about his situation as he pleases. It's his experience. We need to start giving grace to victims. I'm tired of people always questioning the reasons why. Also, Christian said he was not interested in money. This has been bothering him for years. I've been harassed before and it does something to you!!!
Many black people never give grace. It's unbelievable how victims are blamed or they had to do something to receive this type of behavior. It's sickening, especially coming from YOUR OWN.
Absolutely 💯. It's because society believes that this person I like couldn't dare do something so vile. I believe Christian. People in authority can and have used their power to target others to fulfill their own demented and demonic desires. I would not put any of these celebrities on a pedestal.
Exactly!
Funky doesn't care! He's to busy being the mean guy. This is the most distastefully video that he had ever done.
Agreed..not everyone talks out the ass without thinking..I live in Florida and that's what I'm around daily and what he may be used to
What amazes me is how everyone so quick to just have all this sympathy for Mr.Keys but when it was Terry Krews everyone just laughed at him .
It sucks that being attractive is a gift and a curse. Not everyone wants to gain from their looks and I’m sure he’s sick of being judged for it.
You don't even need to be so called attractive. People can be just down right disgusting.
I know that everything in this mortal world can have positive and negative aspects, but I will never look at being attractive as a "curse". Too many perks and advantages.
I used to watch his lives during the pandemic. He is definitely more than just good looks. He is highly intelligent and seems like he stands on integrity. I always wondered why his career didn’t advance because he is a good actor. I believe every thing he said.
@@divatude314 He definitely stands on integrity. Remember when he called out Steve Harvey for his very mean and careless jokes about the Flint, Michigan water crisis? ...
@@thednation927 Imagine how hard it is to find true love in a world where you're always wondering if people are only your "friends" and "lovers" because they're drawn to your appearance... Some attractive people may be shallow enough to not care about the motives of the people who attach themselves to them. But, for those attractive people who genuinely want real authentic connections just as so many of us do, it has the potential to be a special kind of hell, particularly if they already have deeper insecurities and issues that necessitate having a genuine support group. In those instances, it can actually be very isolating the more attractive you are, because EVERYONE IS TOO BUSY MARVELING AT YOUR FACE AND BODY TO STOP TO WONDER IF YOU'RE ACTUALLY OKAY, HOW YOU'RE DOING TODAY, IF SOMETHING'S BOTHERING YOU, WHAT YOUR OPINION IS, WHAT YOUR DREAMS ARE. They just boil you down to gorgeous person who must have everything you could ever want just handed to you on a silver platter. It really is very dehumanizing sometimes. And that's not even getting into all the people who literally befriend you and get close to you just because they want to use you (sexually and otherwise), or because they like the optics in terms of social status of having a good-looking person around.
Everyone can be sexually harassed
No matter what gender
No matter what age
No matter what name
It’s STILL harassment
Exactly 💯
Being propositioned and saying no isn't harassment.
Exactly and no matter what they look like as well
We all get harassed, bullied and insulted in this lifetime and that's why we got an HR department, a justice system, a police department, access to a lawyer, family members and most of all we got a mouth. When people wait to find so called justice 10, 20, 40 years later when they see that person old who may have or didn't do that act, they attack with true or false statements about them.

Christian Keyes was way too emotional to be lying. I believe him. Kudos to this brave man.
I believe him….he is an actor 💅🏽
He’s an actor
Funky put things in great perspective
I believe him, but not due to the emotion. How many lying Caucus tears have we seen before? Countless.
And he said he has proof 👀👀
Honestly staying silent does more harm than good. You have victims being quiet while predators move from victim to victim until they come across someone who refuses to go along with it.
The process of speaking up is almost worse than the act itself. During my r@pe kit, the nurse suggested I ask my ex to be more gentle and everything in the process went downhill from there. Sometimes I wish I left silently. The system was not made for victims.
Absolutely 👍🏽 this what all victims need to hear. I know from personal experience.
Being loud isn't as grand as people may think. I'm sure you don't mean to, but saying things like not speaking up allows the predator to do it again is putting more guilt on victims where around 5% of victims have rapists who are prosecuted and jailed. What abusers do after the first one is of no fault of the original victim or any subsequent victims. There are more people that protect predators than victims loud as it's kept. Plenty of women with pedo boyfriends, families with pedo relatives, kids with pedo teachers, congregations with pedo pastors, etc. and at the end of it all, the victim is asked why they didn't do this or that.

Just because a person is attractive doesn’t mean they want to be hit on or touched by anyone. I use to say to myself if I wasn’t a pretty little girl maybe I wouldn’t have experienced what happened to me multiple times as a child. This trauma doesn’t go away. Triggers happen more than you think which makes it so hard to forgive and forget the things that happen to you so don’t judge.

My sentiments exactly
Exactly!! And let's be real the power that some of these celebrities hold enough power to have you unalived and get away with it depending on the type of people they have in their corner!!
It is a money grab...that's why he threatening I stead of just filing. It's so obvious. Yes it happened but now he realizes he can be paid for it.
Anyone who has been assaulted knows that it can take a lot of time to find the courage to speak up. I believe and stand with Christian
Exactly
This video flew over your head
I don't believe him nor do I stand with him. He's full of it.
I stand with him too. None of us know the truth of what happened. We weren't there to witness anything. I just wish he wouldn't withhold the name(s) of his alleged abuser(s). Why spare whom you have all of this disgust for? And if it isn't TP then why isn't he trying to clear TP name??? That's all I'm saying.
I still haven’t said anything. I was 12. I’m 42 now. He’s a fire chief and was married to my Cousin. He’s VERY well known. His son is a perv a well. He use to date Misa. Pdiddy BM.
Even if he was flirty, as a straight man, to get his way, and roles, it is still no reason for a man to keep trying to grab his junk, and jump in the bed with him. That’s unacceptable.
This sounds like a little bit of victim blaming to me. Granted, there are straight men who behave the way you described in the video, but that doesn't mean HE acts like that. Also, I'm pretty sure he put up with all that because he was afraid of being blackballed. And I have definitely seen some gay men repeatedly hit on straigh men who definitely WEREN'T asking for it. Is it something that happens all the time? Of course not. My gay male friends DO NOT do that. But it absolutely DOES happen sometimes.
A lot of bit not a little bit
I disagree.
he did give “disclaimers” up front to how he would approach this topic & the appearance of how it may come across but victim blaming was NEVER the intention. 👍🏾
💯💯💯 victim blaming
1. he spoke too slow
2. cassie got money
3. he signaled
4. straights luring gays
5. men/woman double std
6. leveraging looks
Exactly like why even bring up behaviors that some other men have like?? What that got to do with it.

Hey Funky Dineva, are you going to keep trolling the comments insulting people? “A hit dog will holler”!
@@kathryna6370 yes until you graduate from special ED now go to bed
Christian is a really cool guy and embracive. This is a case of kindness, attractiveness and his demeanor being viewed by the predator as a “weakness” or “oh he gets down because he’s so nice”… That’s not right and is also toxic masculinity.
Exactly this. I don't think he exudes typical "tough but pretty boy" more like a kind person who happens to have these physical attributes. When a predator senses that someone is nice or docile they view them as the perfect prey. I don't think he gave off any vibe that he would be ok with a gay man approaching him like that, just that he was too nice and a sick person tried to take advantage of that/him.
I think he was trying his best to stay working and not catch a charge. So he played it cool to get the most out of the situation. This sounds like textbook sexual harassment in the workplace. Because he did let the slick comments slide the person kept that shit up for years apparently. So looks like Christian was just waiting for the right time to get the guy back. And one thing about it, a predator knows who to go after.
@@TLJones-bq7wk I 💯 agree
I agree
But regardless of sexual orientation or gender the power dynamic is inappropriate and is harassment being unwanted attention, sexual conversations, propositions.
This is the equivalent of saying to a woman who was raped and abused, "what did you wear, was your skirt to short, did you look at him a certain way? A predator needs no reason.
EXACTLY thank you. there a whole bunch of problematic statements made in this video.
Exactly!! Like he believes him but yet has some hurtful and dangerous talking points. You hit it on the nail!
No it’s not 😂
@@AmarZion Its definitely not
It's easy for people to say "Why didn't he say something earlier" or "Why didn't he press charges" but people don't realize that one victim not only goes against the perpetrator but goes against said perpetrator and the industry backing the perpetrator. It's literally a person going against an army.
This. This RIGHT HERE
‼️‼️
Exactly
And we saw that with Mo’Nique Vs Oprah/Lee Daniel’s/ Tyler Perry / and Will packer 🤷🏽♀️
And they was turning up dead this is the right time to speak
As someone who has been violated by someone of power, you instantly think no one will be believe you. Those kind of offenses make you feel guilty, small, stupid, invaluable, and shameful. These people have so many yes-people around them and you are usually dismissed. When you see someone else stand up for themselves and they are heard, it ignites something inside of you that you were unaware of. Nothing made me want to tell one of my experiences more than when someone else spoke up about the same person AND they were believed. I finally felt seen and heard. It gave me the courage to stand up for myself. I commend Christian for standing up for himself and he is in my prayers ❤
I am glad you stood up for yourself too.
I have been there as well. I never thought to make a long, meandering video for the world to speculate on and describe being actually assaulted by someone else and leave the world to speculate.
🤔 ummmmm
@@martell203 I would pass out if I had to do that. So, someone doing it without anyone asking is beyond comprehension for me. Hopefully he gets the closure he needs
@@plantbasedunicorn7995 Same. I told 2 people close to right after it happened and then didn’t speak on it for years. Nearly 15 years have passed now and I would NEVER do what he’s doing. That’s why it’s hard for me to believe him. AND I’m tired of hearing this type of stuff. Makes me think too much. There are so many other things that we could talk about, but this everyday is getting overwhelming.
Abusers don't need a signal. It is about power. Their money makes them think they are powerful and can harass anyone without repercussions
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 exactly.
This is the equivalent to “what was she wearing to the party that made him want to S assault her“ like give it a rest.
This is a sad take, Wow! Funky! You should've just not said anything. Just becuase a man shows uo handsome, or dressed sexy, doesn't mean he's "looking for it" just like what we say about women( and I'm a woman).
I'm sure a lot of men are going through this, and this commentry, is a reason men don't come forward, and women
we need more men to come forward, and we need to support them
Yet, Funky playing two sides of the fence, because HE as a gay man UNDERSTAND'S, the mentality of gay men. So, he's really throwing Christian under the bus, meanwhile PROTECTING gay men. Obviously, Christian in some way led these undercover monsters on, otherwise; Knock YOUR BOSS out, run to the police ....Gtfoh!
Sometimes our opinions need to be kept to ourselves especially when they sound so out of touch with reality. The man was abused! Not everyone is trying to get money out of it. My goodness, this sounds ridiculous.
Completely!!!
Thank you!!!!! His commentary is disgusting. No one ask for sexual harassment. Christian is hurting and by the video you can tell. I am praying for him he doesn’t deserve this treatment.
Exactly! To imply that Christian somehow give his abuser the greenlight to SH him? Funky is a disgusting human being.
Absolutely!! I wish I had never watched this video. Funky's mind-set is ridiculous.
Exactly!
I believe Christian and I stand by him 100%…..I pray that he does whatever he sees fit, in his own timing. Also, NONE of this was his fault. NO ONE asks to be harrassed. Male or female. It’s ALWAYS a violation. Period ‼️
Thank you!!!! No one asks for harassment.
Great comment. So true.
I totally agree with every word you just said. Sounds like Funky is jealous of Christian to me. The audacity of him to blame the victim because he's handsome and Funky is not.
@@telleblu4382 ❤️❤️
@@justdorcas3875 it was such a weird review …I didn’t expect that at all from him. It definitely seemed like victim blaming and that’s sad.
This is incredibly sad. You are right; people like you are the reason people hesitate to come out with their stories. He says what happened to him from his vantage point and folks quick to blame the victim. Why do people always need to “express how they feel” “I need to tell the truth” about someone else’s experience. Either express support or keep your “true” feelings to yourself. It doesn’t help us move forward. It just keeps perpetuating these negative tropes.
I don’t think no one should take a public stand and question someone else’s experiences, FD could have kept him and his spirits quite on this one and to say that he was a participant when he clearly said he made it cleared that he didn’t give into the pressure. Also if FD was going to use his platform to make his opinion known he should have at least listened to the full video.
Yes I agree keep your opinion to yourself if you aren’t in support I’m so disappointed with this narrative being shared by Funky on today.

OMG! Let's not act like the more money and power these celebrities have make them feel ENTITLED to do whatever they want to whoever they want!!
Gay people hit on straight people all the time and if they have money and power they will definitely hit on whoever they want
Exactly this! This is like being assaulted by your boss who can control your money at this job and anywhere else you decide to work.
THIS. When I tell you the stories I could tell?!!!! Men with money and power aren't used to NO. It doesn't usually end well. BUT the thing is if it is TP Christian literally KEPT working with the man. that's what doesn't make sense. Like at all. I get u need the money but... For years??? I get he tried to forgive him but. .. I can forgive and not work for or with you. Annnnnd CASSIE FILED PAPERWORK. Christian went to SOCIAL MEDIA. That's narcissism, which is why I agree with Funky on something ain't CLEAN in the milk. But I do believe him something happened to that man.
Exactly. I met him in August 2023 at a seminar, and he brought this up. My previous hairdresser, who happens to be a gay man, loves to try to get at straight men. Men he knows are straight. So, that's not true. If the billionaire person has other men on the payroll, the billionaire may have viewed Christian Keyes as a challenge.
that part!!!
He never said he was sitting somewhere not able to go on. The man said he wanted it to STOP. He’s saying something in an attempt to get said perpetrator to STOP. We be so busy trying to read something extra into things instead of simply listening to what the man said. This happens every freaking day in “normal” work situations. Just imagine what it looks like in the Hollywood circle.
Yes, I think Dineva thinks he has been violated. But he said he simply wanted the harassment to stop.
Then HE should contact the authorities in order to MAKE it stop as he says. Just telling everyone on the internet without mentioning who is NOT helping the situation.
When a woman says it, SHE DOES NOT GAIN SYMPATHY! She is told she is a liar, asked what she had on to contribute to her own harassment, and is accused of lying to tear down the community. THAT is what happens
And there are others who give her sympathy, grace, believing, etcetera.
Try TF again.
@@christopherbrown5409 No, you try again. Literally most rape victims do not get justice. That is a fact.
@LIFEWITHSHERIDAN you were bitching about SYMPATHY, not justice. Those are two different things, booboo, and they often come from two different groups. Also, what proof do you have that they're actually VICTIMS?
LIKE I SAID, TRY TF AGAIN, HO.
Patriarchy
Well When A Man Says It, NOONE CARES AT ALL.!
His testimony actually makes sense from a psychoanalysis POV. Deviant psychopaths will push your boundaries and want to take something that you would never freely give.
People need to respect each other period. Even if a person is flirty or too friendly that doesn’t give anyone a right to molest, rape or sexually assault them. If a person is giving you mixed signals ask them ”do you like me ?”or ”you make me feel uncomfortable when you say or do this and that… ”victims are definitely not to be blamed. Imagine raping someone just because they’re too friendly.
Thank you..
Like the young people say Period.
I understand what you’re saying, but in gay-straight male relationship, there are different dynamics. Some of these straight guys will pander to gay men and do anything for that attention until it gets real or they feel exposed, then they run back to their heterosexual privilege for cover.
I had a straight friend who did that, even when I resisted, he still wanted to test the waters. We were chilling in my room one day and he insisted he wanted to watch porn with me. I warned him that it was risky but he didn’t mind. So we smoked and watched porn, including gay porn. We both got horny and then I asked to suck him off, that was when it hit him. He said no and I respected it.
Later he went around telling our other friends that I sexually harassed him. He was afraid that I’d tell people, so he did it first. He made people see me as a creep but didn’t tell them the part he played in it.
Why are you (a straight man) laying in bed shirtless with a GAY MAN watching porn? What did you think was going to happen? I mean it’s not a Disney movie. You knew damn well what you were doing. Sure I must respect his boundaries regardless, but he left the door open.
So yeah, I agree with Funky. Some of these so-called straight guys can do the most when nobody is watching, and play the victim in public when their masculinity feels threatened.
It doesn't surprise me that Funky feels like this. Very disturbing
Now when did say he was raped lol
proclaiming “i’m not trying to blame the victim” after blaming the victim is wild.
Absolutely insane!!
I usually rock with funky. But not today. I don’t care what Christian did or what kind of “signals” he was giving. It doesn’t diminish what he experienced. Funky, you’re wrong for this.
Gaslighting 101
@@anime-nn9kl Actually it does if he gave off signals that he could possibly be interested and then switch up like was being harrassed.
Let's be very clear if a gay man approaches a Str8 Man, Trying to tempt him in sexually engaged that man is gonna knock the s*** out that gay man!!
You absolutely wouldn't come back at him a second time if he let you know the first time that he wasn't with that gay s****.
I think that's what funky was saying he's in that world he knows very well if you approach a straight man and he's not about that you might get your teeth knocked the f*** out.
We gotta stop saying the people with the powers if you've been recording them expose them privately or publicly the harassment would stop.
Why are you still working currently right now with TP.
Exactly the entire commentary is extremely contradictory. I am just shaking my head at his remarks. Like how can you open your mouth to just say this man wasn’t affected by the experience!!
It’s sad that anyone would believe that a victim must have given the assailant a signal that it’s okay to cross the line with them. Sad! This is one reason why men, especially black men, don’t speak out about these things more. SMH
Yes, it is sad. It doesn't matter how good-looking someone is or what kind of signal someone may think the person is giving. No one should touch another unless they know for sure that the person is willing. I do not think this is a money grab; however, due to the timeframe, I want to see receipts and proof. I also agree that he needs to exonerate those who haven't done anything because people speculate, and it could hurt someone who's not involved.
Right! You don't have to give a predator a signal!!! What is funky talking about? So all the men and women who have been harassed or assaulted, gave the predator signals??? Funky obviously does not realize how dangerous his words are!!!! The predators misuse their power and have many intimidation tactics.
The only "signals" that I can see without getting yourself a black eye or deleted, is the signal between A&B, straight male to straight female, straight female to straight male. Not gay male to what is possibly a straight male or L chick to a straight female (strictly _ickly) . You're asking for serious problems then. 👀 Back in the day that was commonplace. No need to even guess. Today a lot of the T are not even informing the straight males, they're just hitting on them hoping to get lucky. And that's totally wrong! They're asking for trouble.
@annanims7876 ... Agreed, I was like what r u talking abt? Just cause someone is fine does not give someone the right to harass you. Signal or not. Funky lost me with that one.
This whole diatribe was CRINGE AF! Just because you say “I’m not victim shaming” does not mean that YOU aren’t victim shaming. This man is a walking talking contradiction. Christian said that he purposefully let the statute of limitations run out because it wasn’t about money, did he miss that part. This is just ALL wrong. Funky needs to just shut up while he still has a following because he is blaming the victim. Sad!
Ain’t you the one always saying “Pay me for my pain?” Why shouldn’t he or Cassie or whoever get financially compensated for what they were put through. Thats the whole reason we have a civil court.
Yep agree because he said that all the time
His career is his payment
No not the same 😂
Predators don't need to be signaled for them to come onto you. Especially when they have your career and livelihood in their hands. When someone has power over you, they may feel emboldened to try you.
Exactly. The power is all the signal needed.
Exactly! So is he saying that innocent children who are molested by predators are signaling too? That line of thinking is ridiculous and dangerous and is definitely victim blaming, no matter how many times he claims that's not what he's doing. That is exactly what he's doing. Smh.
Exactly! I know plenty of straight men who were solicited, as a minor, by men in the church. The men held power in that community. The ones that were "saved," had mothers/aunts/grandmothers who also had power in the church community. We call it homophobia but, it is actually PTSD.
1000000000000000000000000%
Right.
This is problematic in so many ways and a prime example of why people don't feel safe speaking out, especially men. From my understanding, he purposely let the statue of limitations run out so it could not be shrugged off as a money grab. This is sad.
Especially men! 🤦🏽♀️

This video just popped up again and I realized he never did come forward with anything. There's been no update and he's been quiet. So I guess Funky was right, he didn't end up taking this to the cops or taking it further
There’s an angle being ignored here. In high risk political environments, reporting anyone places a scarlet letter on your back and perhaps he stayed silent to solidify his career and enhance his credibility.
Yes! Christian said just that.
Well then, ain't this about choices?
He did not "Have To" do this to have a career. He made a choice to stick around an abuser.
He's been recording this person for years. Explain his fear of exposing the perpetrators, and do these recordings have his voice recorded, as well? He said that it wasn't a money grab. Of course, it is a money grab by way of employment security and possibly damages. I agree 100 💯 with Q.
He doesn’t have to say who it is until he is ready, but at least clear up who it’s NOT so people won’t attack the wrong person.
Agreed.
I think the type of man that he is; he would have come out to say we are blaming the wrong person if it wasn't the person people are saying it is.
So it is Tyler 👀 because that’s all i see ppl saying it is

It’s so sad how much hate and criticism some ppl have for victims after they speak out but never have smoke for the offender. This is one of the reasons why some victims don’t speak up and tell their truth. I’m sorry Christian and others experienced this and I pray he and others get the justice they deserve!
They’re not a victim-just by speaking out to the public because the public wasn’t there. So if the public question what they’re saying it’s not victim blaming- in my opinion these type cases should be handled strictly through the courts- and nothing should be shared to the public until the case has been decided through the courts. This protects the plaintiff and defendant…all human beings lie. PERIODT
Can't have smoke for someone with no name. Who are we supposed to have smoke for? Casper the SA Ghost?
@@yakitalove1230 If an individual is discussing a terrible event that happened to them regardless of whether they go to court for it or not, they’re still a victim. Courts don’t decide who a victim is, the offender does. Yes people lie, and they also tell the truth. I support ALL victims and pray they get justice!
@@cocomac2201 well said. I don’t know what that other person was going on about 🙄. Courts get things wrong Teo often for me to believe they are the only ones that can decide who is a victim. Sometimes they only make the right decision for black people when they see they have community support.
This is nothing new. The casting couch worked both ways. Many men in Hollywood just haven’t spoken out. They took that 100k and went about their way, which is their right. Just like Christian had the right to turn it down.
The sad part is , let’s say he’s used his “good looks” to move up in his career, once he says “no” to a person that should be respected. It should be no if and it buts about it! The man didn’t want the harassment and that’s it!
No means NO
Funky, while I can appreciate your take on this subject, I have this to say: If the “level of participation” you’re talking about is anything equivalent to something like wearing clothes that are slightly revealing, smiling a little extra, batting an eye or whatever, then that’s the same thing women do all the time in similar circumstances. It doesn’t mean the person should therefore expect to get groped or turned into anyone’s sex slave. I think it’s a little irresponsible and intellectually dishonest to suggest that just because a man may engage in that kind of social signaling that that must mean he was “asking for it”. The same criticism gets leveled against women who complain about SH and SA all the time and it’s just as wrong when it goes the other way. That’s all.
It flew over your head
He did NOT say that. ANd if you are a gay man YOU KNOW exactly what he IS talking about! So STOP IT!
Funky is privy to parts of the story that we don’t have. He even knows the who.
Funky, I dated this Guy and he had one sister that was Gay, a Butch. I never treated her any different than I treated anybody else. One day, she asked me for a ride and I was taking her to her destination koand this is what happened: She started crying so bad that I had to pull off the highway. I asked her, what in the World was Wrong with her. She told me that I was the only one that had ever treated her like a Human Being. She said, she know I was straight as an arrow but why she could not meet somebody like me. She said, everybody including her brother that I was dating acted like something was Wrong with her and her Family. Funky, I literally cried with her. I told her I view her as a Human Being and a Woman, no MATTER what her sexual preference is. I do not hold things against those that are different. However, I am spiritual and I do not judge anyone who do not believe in what I believe in. I told her one day she would find somebody that accepts her for who she is. She died of AIDS, ten years later.
My opinion, I don’t think it’s a money grab but what’s wrong with someone paying you for all the things they put you through I feel like he should get every dollar he deserve anybody that overstepped their boundaries with him if he told you that’s not what he’s into and you continue to do this, you deserve everything you get

The reason is that the person who tried it was also LGBT.
24:54 Why CAN'T this be a money grab? If it happened, then it happened, and they need to be accountable!!!!
If you didn’t watch the whole video, then u shouldn’t have given this same long on and on either. Why would this man put himself in this position for you and others to do what you just did? He is on AllRise, doing singing gigs, in movies, how much more attention does he need. Who would want to be labeled as weak, on purpose for staying silent? Especially when we know how cruel bloggers, podcasters, media and fans can be. Who would sign up for being all over the internet for something like this on purpose? Make it make sense
One of the issues that I’m having is that he definitely discussed, in depth, instances of women co-stars groping him on set, as well. Why is that not a part of this discussion at all?
I question that as well. Smh.
Because the commentator only wants to report on what fits his agenda. It’s as if he didn’t even watch the whole video. Because if he had he would’ve heard that he let the statute of limitations run out but he recorded it and sending it to the police
I know men who were repeatedly propositioned after they clearly said no. Some people are just predators. Some people’s egos can not take rejection. Sad but true.
But why continue to work with such predator for 20 years if the behaviour was so repulsive, off-putting and gave u nightmares? 😮
I cant seem to wrap my head around accepting the predator's money and choosing to be in the predator's environment for 20 years after being harassed and assaulted.
CK is not a predator. Therefore, he may have had difficulty understanding how sick the individual is. He seemed genuinely surprised when the person got into bed with him. He also said the person presented themselves as a mentor/brother. Seems like it was initially hard for him to accept that the person is a predator. Not to mention, if this person is powerful, he probably had fear connected to challenging him. Overall, it’s unfortunate that men and women have to deal with these sick people.
@@TB-ev6kk Right. He is an educated man, who was smart enough to start collecting evidence from 2005. It is not farfetched to think he was collecting this evidence for a big payday in the future.
I can understand the initial shock about being propositioned by a mentor, but that initial shock cannot last for 20 years. The fact that he started collecting evidence from 2005 shows that he knew exactly what was happening.
Further, he wouldnt be personally challenging him in Court...what he alleges is a crime...once its a crime it is the State that brings the charges...evidence in a case works the same way against powerful ppl as poor people ..ask R Kelly & Harvey Weinstein.
@@poohbita_88 We don’t know who the perpetrator is. Therefore, we don’t know the details of their business together. The focus has shifted to the victim and assigning motive instead of focusing on the real problem, Predators. I don’t know what CK motives are. What I know is that powerful people are allowed to prey on others. Anyone with knowledge of the legal system and the entertainment industry knows that they are corrupt. If evidence worked the same for all, u wouldn’t have powerful people getting off after committing horrific crimes. In fact, many are never prosecuted. You wouldn’t have R Kelly continuing to hurt children when there was clear evidence of abuse (years before he was indicted). U wouldn’t have Weinstein terrorizing women for years after victims reported him (before he was indicted). Power invokes fear. The reality is, the entertainment industry is corrupt. It’s not as simple as presenting evidence. Reporting an abuser can be the kiss of death for one’s career and to make matters worse, the person may not be prosecuted.
@@TB-ev6kkvery well said!!👏🏿❤️
I just saw a comment on Empressive Channel’s video regarding this issue that I wholeheartedly agree with: “I wish Christian wouldn’t have dropped this until he was ready to tell it ALL. Either say who it is or who it isn’t. But to put it out like this, open for speculation, is only self serving. I feel like he used social media to send a message to his abuser. Once the message is received, it will be handled behind closed doors. And then he won’t bring it up again until he wants something.”
There is nuisance to this situation & two things can be true. Do attractive ppl leverage their looks to get favor? Yes! Is it ok to proposition someone or use coercion to sexually harass someone? NO. Only the latter is a crime. Power dynamics & money are the equalizer to a physically more“strong” person. If the boss is hanging opportunities over you head to get you to comply to their advances that’s illegal. Coercion isn’t genuine consent.
Well said

@sermoninstituteforsuccess5568That's why I can't even finish the video.
Terry Crews alleged that he was sexually assaulted by producer at Hollywood party. He said his first instinct was to beat him down but felt his stern negative reaction in that setting was enough. According to Dineva, this means Terry was sending out gay vibes and I don't believe Dineva at all.
You must be an attorney 😊
This is the first time I’ve ever had to whole heartedly disagree with Funky.
I’ve always respected his perspective on topics, but this… I can not.
This is a very serious accusation and a victim should not be further victimized, especially if you weren’t there to witness it!
You wrong Dineva 😢
I totally agree with you … This is wrong and he didn’t even watch the entire video… I can hear a lot of jealousy, in the under stone of this entire MESSage… sounds like jealousy to me..

Damn the man has a right to choose how he wants to reveal his truth even if it takes hours to do so. This move of his takes alot of bravery. I feel like the world is harsh. After twenty years in the industry myself I can relate to Christian sooo much and there were so many moments in his long ass venting session that I felt in my heart. And omg you lost me on the Christian must of sent signals. There are powerful predators who just don’t take no. And just because you live off your beauty don’t make you a prostitute. Come on Funky you lost me on that comment. And furthermore Cassie and his case are apples and oranges. I am really disappointed in your perspectives on this post…It’s givin haterish vibes Funky. Based on what he has shared this would grounds for a person to want to make change in the industry. I hope he does succeed that. Cuz men on women crimes in the industry are on blast but it’s time for victims of male on male crimes to be normalized with coming out. I hope he gets a bag and I hope the predator will think twice about doing business as usual.

I agree that sexual harassment is egregious in any profession or personal environment! I too have experience with the mechanisms of HOLLYWOOD! I just don't know who he is saving or enlightening- these sexual advances and/or harassment is ancient HOLLYWOOD Culture. Is it wrong? - yes. But it's HOLLYWOOD. You play or you don't play and deal with the consequences (he has demonstrated there is a choice). I am not trying to blame the victim- but what is a victim and What is a real victim?🤔
I'm only 11 min in on this video and you are proving Christian right. When he said alot of people will villianize him and refuse to believe bc of who that person is and yall place them on a pedestal and who ever told you which I'm sure what Claudia was dead ass wrong!!!
Is it Steven Spielberg?
@@carpediem4512 he didn't say it was a black man.. but Funky confirmed it in this video that it is
Agreed. I don’t like how they’re handling this at all. Seems like he’s exploiting the victim and casting doubt. Interesting.
Funky, in the beginning explained that his knee jerk reaction was what you assumed . He also said he believed him. Go back and re watch
@@carpediem4512 Tyler Perry, I'm thinking
He didn’t say he was sitting around distraught! He has been holding in all of the experiences that has happened with this person and I’m sure it’s made him feel “a way” WHAT EVER THAT WAY IS- he is allowed to feel it and address it how and when he sees fit! Lastly, so what if he wants to be paid for his pain! Sometimes that’s all you can get and it comes with exposing the person! You are out of line for saying he wants sympathy. He can tell his story how ever he wants to! Let’s see how you tell your story and how people criticize it. One thing I agree with is he should’ve gone to the police first!
funky is full os sxxt
I totally agree with you. Funky sounds like an insensitive idiot and He's jealous of Christian because he's handsome and Funky is not. That man can tell his story when and where he wants. Funky has always felt some kind of way about straight men or jealous of them.
It's called walking away
@@BRANDON_MALVEAUX🎵 For the love of money 🎵
@@Unbothered75 facts people need to admit that although he's telling the truth he def wants financial gain
OMG Funky! I agree with your sentiments wholeheartedly. I bet his phone is ringing off the hook with offers to silence him. He knew exactly what he was doing, and I highly doubt he’ll be filing a police report. This includes all guilty parties outside of the two billionaires he eluded to in his video.
Noone invites sexual harassment. As a woman even if a straight man touches me inappropriately doesn't mean I invite it. I had a boss one time that loved to kick the girls in the behind literally. I had a college teacher who put his hand on my thigh and then tell me I was not going to fail his chemistry class when I scheduled a one on one meeting with him. I didn't invite it. Their attraction to me is not my fault.
Sis wait what??????????? What you mean kick the girls in their behind...TF! I know you lying!!! My gawd!!! That's fuckn terrible!!! 😠
@sermoninstituteforsuccess5568 Not at all. I was not getting chemistry at all and had major concerns. When he put his hand on my thigh it shocked me so much I ended up dropping the class.
I disagree. Plenty of half naked, attention-seeking folks invite sexual harassment. I used to be one of those before I grew up. Nobody walking around with their ass and titties on display is not inviting sexual harassment and it’s only complained about if it comes from someone undesirable. You can ignore reality all you want.
@sermoninstituteforsuccess5568just because it isn’t your experience doesn’t mean people don’t do it
@@bigmona2741you're speaking from your own experiences. Not every attractive person uses that to get to where they want. Foolish is thinking that you know every attractive person's mindset.
this is the wildest analysis i’ve heard in 2023. it’s so disheartening. “i’m not victim blaming.” proceeds to blame the victim. WTF. 🤯
I like hearing Funky Dineva's point of view. Question: What was the point of telling people on TH-cam? Was there any other way to get the story out?
You hit the nail in the head 💯💯💯💯.
I don't feel that he was victim blaming at all. Has a gay man himself he explained why he felt that there may be something more to the story. I believe that this happened to Christian as well. However, like Funky, I believe that there is a little more to the story. Still it shouldn't have happened.
No you may just lack common sense
@@BRANDON_MALVEAUX you’re LACKING to the point that you have nothing left. the absolute definition of LACK. you are it.
He said in the 40 minute video that he INTENTIONALLY waited until the statue of limitations was expired in hopes it would add more validity to his truth so folks wouldn't think it was a "money grab"
i’m starting to think he didn’t even look at the while video
A money grab does not need to operate in the legal forum dear...he said he has tapes right? He showed the tapes right? He made sure to let the world and*** his alleged abuser know that he has the tapes - do you know what that is worth??
@@melliegotsoul yea , he said he didn't but clearly his mind his made up either way
He doesn’t need to sue to get money out of this person. If this person is as high powered as Christian claims (which I believe) just the threat of ruining their reputation would make the pay up but then that would be potentially extortion on Christian’s part.
@@mamajojo2300 I just simply said what the man said during his interview dear. That's it. That's all.
Funky im sorry but anyone who has been sexually harrassed or assaulted should be able to prosecute and get paid!! If billionaire men who are bold enough to play themselves, should be sued or in jail. Christian needs to feel no shame! They didn't! 19:00
I believe if someone has been sexually harassed and/or assaulted, that they can manage their news anyway that THEY deem fit. They deserve ciminal AND civil ($$) justice, so all we can o isbsit back and watch. What does "pure intentions" even mean? Why does the victim always have to appease the public but the perpetrator gets to wreak havoc and STILL gets the benefit of the doubt. This ish is crazy!!
Its sad that this man can't express his experience something that been hurting him for a minute. Just so the media to turn it around and make it as he was the problem. Shame on you because this is the reason why men are still in the dark.
Funky, I was just literally having this conversation with a friend on the year of exposure which is 2023!! And I said the 💩 is about to hit the fan! But for those saying why he didn't come out sooner or why did he wait... some people don't understand the danger that comes with speaking up in the entertainment and music industry. They'll either unalive you or make it very hard for you to EVER work again!! And not just in the industry something so small as getting a job at Walmart. And that's scary!! And 15 years ago the internet wasn't what it is now!! But the real kudos goes to Cassie for throwing her hat up and ALL victims of the industry following suit and coming forth!!💯💯💯
Right…this folks want you to put your life in danger to satisfy their curiosity #screwdemppl
Girl shut up nobody is that powerful to say “ oohhh you accused so and so of SA we can’t hired you at Burger King or wal mart lol shut up” and I feel like if you know why not speak up so you can put that awful person behind bars
@@Agntculboik9yes they are that powerful. Thats why if you accuse some of sexual assault at work HR will go ahead and let you go. Regardless of it it’s true or not.
Why would you sleep over your “bosses” house if you’re just there for business …and you don’t have some type of friendship or relationship??Then invite another grown man INTO your home to do business…if you are not friends or something more…would you invite your work “boss” over your house to discuss a work opportunity? Especially if they’ve been harassing you sexually….That’s just weird. Everybody already knows about the casting couch in Hollywood, so why would someone keep putting himself in these situations for years, by handling work outside of work spaces like the casting office or with his agent or manager at their office…I just have questions..
You steady saying, "i'm not trying to blame the victim" while blaming tf out of the victim. Insane!
You didn't listen well
And trying to shame him . 😡
I understand how you feel Q, but sometimes powerful people have a different way of thinking, and won’t accept NO as an answer. If you’re just being respectful by speaking and/or smiling, or engaging in a conversation with certain people, in their mind they think you like them, or you want them sexually. Trust and believe that is not always the case. I watched Christians entire video and he was shook because he thought the guy was a mentor to him. When he said no, the person apologized, but went and grabbed between his legs. I would have punched or kicked him in his nuts and got the hell up out of dodge.
In all honesty by watching the video in its entirety, it was definitely not for a money grab. He stated these incidents have surpassed the statutes of limitations and he is not seeking compensation just justice.
He DID SAY that he purposely let the statues of limitations expire so based off that it doesn’t scream money grab to me
Well, he should go to the police ASAP! Nit let this person continue to do this to others.
@@latoyajohnson8695 exactly!!
That doesn't have shit to do with hush money
I believe Christian too. HOWEVER... My question is "Why protect a man or men whom abused you, broke your trust, and whom you're so disgusted with?" You shook the hornets nest and left everyone playing the guessing game; and if it's not TP why doesn't he get on live and clear TP name???? Say their name and free yourself from this.
Nope. There’s a power imbalance here that you’re not considering Q. Dude said he was broke. We ALL know who he’s referring to.
Your exact thoughts and opinion is exactly why people do not and are afraid to speak out. You can't speak to his experience and how he should have handled it. You can't say why he was approached, yall's experiences are different. As uncommon as it is, there are still men with integrity.
I empathize with him bc I know how hard it is to vocalize your sexual assault. There’s never a “perfect” victim. Ppl will poke holes in their story and ask why they did/didn’t do something before, during, and after the assault. Sexual harassment/Abuse/rape rarely gets reported let alone a conviction if there is a report. He was groped and that’s hard to prove without evidence. Reminds me of what happened to Terry Crews. The person who did this can intimidate and blacklist him from the industry. Also, if he named the abuser, he can be sued for defamation.
I agree with everything you said except the last sentence. In order for a claimant to win a defamation suit, the claimant must prove that the statement was false, given with malicious intent, published, and caused harm to the claimant. Christian states that he has recorded audio of the harassment, so the claimant would likely be unable to prove that Christian's statements are false. The plaintiff likely wouldn't even be able to meet that very first element in a defamation claim, which would negate the rest of the claim.
I think the reason a lot of people did not respond to Terry Crews the same way is because he says a lot of problematic things. A lot of people just don't like him so they didn't really care in my opinion.
@@tincredible thank you for the clarity. I must've missed when Christian said he recored it.
@@Wildflowers2022 Exactly! Realistically, you can't be a complete anti-blk raKEWN, yet expect an outpouring of empathy when things happen to you. So, I think it wasn't that people didn't believe Terry and wouldn't have otherwise ridden for him. It's the fact that Terry doesn't ride for Black folks, and thus, couldn't realistically expect any nonexistent activist energy to be returned when the shoe landed on the other foot.
the sad part is colorism plays a huge part in this whole situation… There wasn’t even a quarter of sympathy for Terry Crews when he actually named and called out the sex offender who has had so much power n influence. Everyone laughed & criticized him for it. Christian has the light skin privilege and pretty privilege but he is losing me with the gaslighting of it all on social media. You see Tyler Perry getting ate up and if it’s not him than say it so he can stop getting dragged ! NO SHADE BUT ITS GIVING HIM 😅BUT STILL OTHERS ARE GETTING ATE UP TOO
I do not think it was colorism. I believe it was more about Terry's physical presence is larger so it was less believable to some.
@@braxtonlebron Chris isn’t no itty bitty committy either … to me it’s definitely the shades of black between them. One is more palatable to societies eyes and the perfect victim if u may. Christian is Cassie and Cassie is Christian if you get my drift …

Its so sad to me that everyone was laughing at Terry Cruz when he reported about his experience.
Exactly, he immediately exposed the perp, and he had way more to lose than this guy who I'm sorry but was pretty much a B lister and he can't even say a name? Terry is owed an apology.
that part
You need to take a deep deep dive into your trauma and figure out WHY you’re ALWAYS determined to be on the wrong side of things.
Literally ALWAYS
THIS!!
THIS!!!!!!!!
If he's always wrong why do you tune in?!?
There’s an ever so slight tone of jealousy maybe🤔
He has every right to tell his truth! Victims and survivors unite🙏🏾🙏🏾
You pretty much blamed Christian for this, and that's INSANE!!
Right
Christian has my sympathy. It’s sickening. This is a difficult situation to be in. I believe names need to be mentioned because I see how this is causing issues with people not knowing who - when people know who it is.
He claims he will release the tapes so if that’s going to happen why not just name names? It’s almost like that live was the single and we are waiting for the album.
@@brandong298facts
You sound like a broken record in these comments! You must be the the one Christian is talking about or Funky Dineva! Lmao
I agree to an extent. These people made Epstein unalive himself, people who speak like Mr. Keyes gotta watch themselves. I think he knows what's happening or what's about to happen and I swear he needs to stay prayed up because lord these people demonic.
Cassie also leveraged her beauty for access. Doesn't mean she wasn't abused. Both can be true at the same time.
It’s not a money grab. He said he allowed the statute of limitations expire because it is not about the money. This man is in real Pain. I respect your opinion
exactly! its clear funky didn't watch the feel video
I'm not surprised....Funky is off his rocker...
@@shalindsey1769it's a money grab as well thx
@@ninilove3498 you're probably not Intelligent enough to understand
It's definitely a money grab. He can still get offered hush money. That's probably the reason he hasn't said a name
I don't understand why he allowed this to happen year after year after year and when you finally say something you go directly to the internet and not the police and didn't say who it was or wasn't. Now he's trending and reading comments saying if he mentioned names it would break our hearts...NO IT WON'T!!!! If a MF sexually abused me for years oh, you gonna know it and i don't give AF who heart gets broken. Why is he protecting his abuser? 🤔 I definitely agree that something ain't right.
True
And I think he also said he’s been recording secretly for years so if you started recording in 2005, then you were setting this up from the beginning even though I still believe it happened to him I still believe he started recording years ago setting things up so that things didn’t go his waysorry but not sorry
Two things can be true at the same time. A money grab AND valid receipts can co-exist.
And a money grab plus public exposure is the main way since less than. 5% go to prison for SA
Ding! Ding! Ding!
If this actually happened to him, he has every right to want a pay out.
I also find it interesting 🤔 that Quintin has a problem with this man possibly wanting to get paid when Quintin always says, "pay me for my pain".
If someone wants to be paid for their pain, they will be well with in their right.
@@NamasteInYourLane Thank you!!!
@@NamasteInYourLane Quinton literally knows he sounds rediculous and then sounds rediculous. He sounds exactly like a straight male talking about a woman.
If its not Tyler Perry than he should at least say that because its irresponsible of him to let the Court of Public opinion run rampant and acuse Tyler.. if it aint him.
i totally agree. Funky did say however that it is who we think it is, so.... theres that.
I used to have a gay friend that I lost contact with but when we use to hang out at clubs or where ever he use to always hit in straight men he didn’t care. Pls understand these straight men never gave him a reason to think it was ok but that’s just what he did. He use to always say that he preferred straight men. My friend and I would have arguments because I didn’t agree with his behavior, but I knew a few people like that, and because of it I wouldn’t hang around them as much because I knew that one day it was going to cause problems and I didn’t want to be in the middle of it but I’m just saying that a straight man doesn’t necessarily have to give a gay man a reason to hit on them.
that is the kink for some…They prefer to be with straight/downlow men. Like some people lowkey like other married people.
@@CarmenSD Any man that would sleep with a man is definitely not a straight man. They are lying to themselves if they say that they have had a straight man before. Those are either down low men or masculine gay/bisexual men.
Chile, We might be talking about the same person and I'm no longer friends wit this guy. 🤣
I think that we may have had the same gay, male friend in common. I know . . . a gay man who is exactly like that. His behavior is a huge part of the reason why we are no longer friends. I would constantly tell him to stop harassing these “straight” men. The “straight men” seemed slightly uncomfortable, but they did not ward him off . . . So . . . I don’t know . . .
@@1Goddess76 could we all be possibly talking about the same person, but for real this must be a thing. Because dude was only attracted to Straight men😬😡🤬
I thought he was in pain, angry, reliving it, and in deep regret for not reporting it to potentially help others sooner. I never felt he was after money or that he needed to rush his point. I'm not sure why social media was his choice. Maybe an interview with someone who could help him?
I understand the idea of “not dishonoring myself”, but everything doesn’t need to be said. If you think it’s a cash grab after Cassie then that’s what you think but you didn’t need to say it. It didn’t add or take away from your video in a positive light. If anything it inferred that anyone filing a lawsuit after Cassie is doing it for that purpose so you’re hurting a lot more than helping. Sometimes y’all tea channels need to learn discernment between what is necessary to say and what isn’t.
This is his channel and he can tell you how he feels personally if you didn't want to hear his point of view You shouldn't have tuned in No One forced You to Listen.

Apparently you didn't watch the whole 40 minutes because Christian specifically said that the statute of limitations is up for what happened to him because this doesn't have anything to do with money. He's pissed for the same reason Cassie was pissed he was continually violated and harassed by someone who has power and was a gatekeeper in Hollywood. So he was sure to keep everything recorded and expose their asses. I agree with you
I am not coming from a place of vanity but I have always gotten A LOT of attention from both men and women. Yes, being attractive does have many benefits but it also draws quite a bit of unwanted advances from people at times. I have NEVER purposefully used my appearance to get things that I want. However , I’ve been aware of being treated better or given free or extra of something because of my looks. Regardless of Christian’s sexuality, it is not the right of anyone to blatantly throw themselves at another person. I have numerous examples of coworkers & supervisors, and a manager who absolutely crossed the line with their advances and I am certain that I had done nothing to lead them to believe I was interested.
@d.johnson1109 I agree with you.Sometimes,I hate to be attractive bc ppl just don't know how to respect your boundaries. I'm too old to go to jail😂
I remember Christian alluding to being sexually harassed several years ago, so he's tried to discuss it even before Cassie's lawsuit.
Q, let’s be real here. The second he says it’s Tyler Perry or it’s not Tyler Perry the game is over for him! If he says it’s not TP, whom everybody seems to want it to be, public interest on a massive scale will vanish! People will say he’s lying now and that TP paid him off! If he says it is TP then ALL of the interest and focus will shift to destroying Tyler Perry like it’s starting to do now. Tyler Perry has already been stained and villainized irreparably by this. The way it was done is shifty, shady and underhanded. The prey has now become the predator! He’s set up Tyler Perry without taking responsibility for his actions which lends itself to your point that Mr. Keyes put himself in a position to allow this to go on for years to reap the benefits of advancing his career and cashing in on the situation. This is in no way, shape or form a Cassie/Diddy situation. And there are more salacious details missing from the story that may highlight Mr. Keyes capitulation and acquiescence to the advances of the perpetrator of said actions. I’ll wait for the details of the police report and court filings if, like you say , it gets that far. Which I 💯believe like you it won’t.
It’s not remotely fair to even compare Christian to Cassie’s plight. Sexual harassment vs being held against your life and Will is different
I said the same thing.
Apparently it flew over your head
This!!!
This is why victim doesn't come out, because of people like this.
He's not a liar either. In my opinion
I love your honesty because I hate how deep people want to be when they talk instead of just getting to the point.
I recently went through a situation with my job where I had to go to HR on someone because of harassment. I don't know what's going on in the world but it's really sad that a person can't make a living, do them, be attractive, intelligent, and not be bothered by unwanted comments #This world ...smh
I completely agree!! I recently had to do the same thing…on my new job, no less. It created a very uncomfortable situation for me. I stay as far away from this man as possible. 🙏🏾💯🙏🏾
Sorry to hear that you had to go through such a HORRIBLE situation ESPECIALLY at your place of work! I was STALKED before Very SCARY situation and wouldn't wish that on my WORSE ENEMY! People Ain't 💩
Same 😞. I hope you are safe and well now. Stay strong.
thats right-:( sex is everywhere- even on commercials- its a proven fact that what we watch and listen to- affects us..... and with this slutrap- ig, onlyfans- we wonder why people are acting so awful- thinking they can do ANYTHING to anyone.... we gotta come together and STOP it all- like NOW.... Its only gonna get worse - i think its their agenda to make everyone turned out.
Absolutely...... I started to go to HR but then I didn't want the job anymore. I was tired and ready to leave for other reasons. Sometimes I hate that we do this because it opens up the door for it to happen to the person who comes behind you. It just didn't occur to me to document and put something down on paper despite the fact that I was leaving. That way a paper trail could be left behind for the next victim. I am a NP but baby I never had as many problems as I had is when I was a supervisor for the medical department for a school system. Teachers are whores!!
Que is it safe to say, you will NEVER be approached like this in Hollywood?? I don’t think you have the looks, body or personality, to garner that kinda attention from these creeps. No need to protect you. Whew 😂
That's so mean 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Well daymn 😅
Well hell😂
😅😂😂😂
Him not saying who it is, is where I took issue for the very same reasons. Because the circle of billionaires is so small, he knew people were going to start guessing. It’s not fair for the innocent to catch strays. I’m of the believe that even though trauma you still have a responsibility to tell your story responsibly and that means not leave room for interpretation. If you’re not ready to publicly name the person, then continue to work with a therapist until you’re ready to go public. It’s only fair.
VERY WELL SAID!!!!
Very this!!!!
Well said
EXACTLY!! 👏👏👏👏
This is equivalent to a man saying a woman's attire was the reason for her being assaulted. The gay men you know aren't billionaires with power, Q. Those persons are not at risk for getting beat up if they approach a straight man, whether aggressively or passively. Had the perpetrator been heterosexual, your response would be different and you know it. This was an insensitive response.
