Video showing Blac Chyna performing a sex act on a former boyfriend was posted online without her permission, and she’s not pleased.
“Revenge porn — posting explicit images without the consent of everyone in those images — is a crime, a civil wrong, and a form of domestic abuse,” Chyna’s attorney, Lisa Bloom, said on Tuesday in a statement. “It’s also a cruel attempt to slut shame women for being sexual.”
The one-minute, 23-second recording was posted anonymously early on Monday on Twitter, according to TMZ. In the video, the man is not seen, but Chyna’s face is apparently clearly visible. She’s reportedly now asking police to look into the matter.
“Today’s post saddens me deeply as it is an attack not only against my client, but my friend,” attorney Walter Mosley, who has been representing Chyna, said Monday on Instagram. “Why do we think it’s acceptable to sell, or publish, or seek revenge, or blackmail women in this way and without their consent? It’s not. Men... we have to do better.” He added, “These betrayals often come from those most close to us.”
Regardless of what Mosley was implying, Chyna’s ex-boyfriend, Mechie, said he didn’t leak the footage. Mechie admitted on Tuesday that he’s the man in the video, but he told TMZ through his rep he never had a copy and didn’t post it. He said he shot the video on Chyna’s phone. The couple started going out after she and baby daddy Rob Kardashian called it quits early last year, but split up last autumn.
Previously, Chyna — real name Angela White — sought a restraining order against Kardashian and then sued him and his family after he posted sexually explicit images of her online in July as part of a public argument. The two share a 15-month-old daughter, Dream.
