Tyrese Gibson is clearing the air about where his generosity starts and ends! The entertainment vet took to social media in a hoodie and raspy voice to put his loved ones on alert. “Tyrese isn’t giving y’all shiiii” seems to be his energy, including with his ex-wives, Samantha Lee and Norma Mitchell.
He and Norma Mitchell had their wedding and welcomed their daughter Shayla in 2007. Their marriage fizzled out the following year, and they spent years in custody court battles that included allegations of child abuse against him. CPS closed that investigation within three months, and he later received 50/50 custody. Earlier this year, she filed a restraining order against him.
Then, Tyrese married Samantha Lee in 2017, and they welcomed their daughter Soraya the following year. Four years later, in 2020, Lee filed for divorce. Their tussle regarding child support resulted in Tyrese’s arrest in September for failure to pay and a debt of $70K.
It’s unclear what sparked Tyrese’s rant against his exes and peoples, but he didn’t mince words while putting out his PSA.
“Baby mama one and two, if you ain’t learned already, I ain’t giving you sh*t. Like I fought to earn this life, imma fight to keep it. I’m not giving it away to nobody. Ain’t nobody gon’ take this. I will shoot, stab and kill over mine. And imma protect this bottom line at all cost. I’ve earned it, and I’m gon’ protect it. I’m gon’ protect it as hard as I’ve earned it.”
Tyrese added that he’s keeping the same energy for his friends, family, and anyone he ever marries again. He doesn’t plan on coming up off his empire just like that.
“If you think I’m just about to give it to you after I’ve worked, I’ve worked this hard to get it. You definitely got me confused, you definitely got the wrong one,” the singer said.
Neither of Tyrese’s ex-wives has responded to his shady comment. Despite being active on Instagram on Wednesday (Nov. 20), he hasn’t clarified why he went off on Lee, Mitchell, and his folks like that.
Still, his speeches aren’t too uncommon on social media. In fact, last month, the singer went viral after sharing a 34-minute video chattin’ to his followers.
