Sexyy Red Blasted by Bernice King for AI Photo With Martin Luther King Jr.: ‘Please Delete’
"This is intentionally dishonoring, deplorable, and disrespectful of my family and my father," MLK's daughter posted to X on Tuesday.
Bernice King, lawyer, global thought leader, activist and daughter of late civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr., spoke out against Sexyy Red after the rapper posted a fake image with her father on MLK Day.
The “Get It Sexyy” MC posted an AI-generated image of her holding hands with the late Rev. Dr. King via X on Monday, which was Martin Luther King Jr. Day.
“This is intentionally dishonoring, deplorable, and disrespectful of my family and my father, who is not here to respond himself because he was assassinated for working for your civil and human rights and to end war and poverty,” Bernice King replied to X on Tuesday (Jan. 21). “Please delete.”
Sexyy had posted another fake image on Monday of her holding a stack of cash while attending the 1963 March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom in Washington, D.C., with Rev. Dr. King. During this historic march, he delivered his “I Had a Dream” speech. “Happy MLK Day!!” Sexyy wrote as the caption for the image, which also features Chief Keef next to a sign that reads “G.B.E. [Glory Boyz Entertainment] F— TRUMP.”
Donald Trump was also inaugurated on Monday for a second term as U.S. president. In 2023, Sexyy claimed the United States needed Trump back in office, but last year, she revealed she voted for Kamala Harris. “I just voted!!! Don’t tell us what to do with our coochies!! #Kamala4President,” she wrote on X while sharing two photos of her “I Voted” stickers on her behind.
