Khalid:

The last time that I talked to this guy was four years ago. This is all random. I don’t know why he did it. I don’t know what’s going on with him, you know. Mental health is real.

Tetris Kelly:

The since deleted tweets from Hugo Almonte, an OnlyFans model and singer contained allegations about an R&B star as well as a photo of Almonte with Khalid. “I was dating this dumb a** singer. He’s ugly as f*ck but he tried to set me up and lie and say I broke into his house because I broke up with him. B*tch a** lied and said that I broke into his house cause I didn’t want him.” And amidst so many allegations, Khalid is speaking out.

Khalid:

I’m gonna speak about the pink cocaine thing. I’ve never done cocaine a day in my life. I don’t place myself in those scenarios, I’m not in those surroundings. Let’s talk about this escorting thing. I’ve never paid for sex a day in my life, ever. I’ve never paid anybody to date me. I’ve never paid anybody to be in a relationship with me.

Tetris Kelly:

Hugo has stated: “My intentions was never to out someone who’s clearly been out in the community in Los Angeles. My intentions were to share my story and share how he tried to use his power to silence me.” Find the full story at Billboard.com.

So I’m not going to run around like I’m unbothered. I never said I was unbothered about anything. This is very bothering.
