Jada Pinkett Smith talks to T.I. and Tiny about "hymengate." |
T.I., 39, said to Jada Pinkett Smith that he was being a dad, despite the backlash.
He and wife, Tameka "Tiny" Cottle-Harris spoke publicly for the first time about the scandal he jokingly calls, 'hymengate.'
T.I. said his intentions "have been terribly misconstrued."
While appearing on the "Ladies Like Us" podcast that aired Nov. 5, hosts Nazanin Mandi and Nadia Moham asked T.I. if he had "the sex talk" with his daughters.
T.I. said: "Yes. Not only have we had the conversation. We have yearly trips to the gynecologist to check her hymen,” referring specifically to Deyjah Harris.
T.I. told Pinkett Smith the conversation from the podcast was "in a very joking manner."
"And so I just, from a place of truth, I began to embellish and exaggerate and I think that a lot of people kind of took it extremely literal,“ T.I. said. “I honestly thought people knew me better than that.”
Pinkett Smith responded, "Well, there's some of us that know you, but there's a lot of people that don't."
Remarks about his daughter got T.I. in some deep shit. |
Asked by Pinkett Smith whether he understood the sensitivity surrounding the topic, T.I. said he did not at the time, but does now.
T.I. also sought to clarify his earlier remarks.
"I never said I was in any exam room. That is an assumption. That is a falsity," he said on "Red Table Talk." "I never said that it was being done present day as an 18-year-old."
So here's the question of the day:
Do you believe that T.I.'s comments about protecting his daughter's virginity were inappropriate or justified? (Expect trolls to offer the most dumbest answers and responses. This is an unscientific poll so we expect trolls here).
