“Deyjah’s 18, just graduated high school now and she’s attending her first year of college, figuring it out for herself. And yes, not only have we had the conversation, we have yearly trips to the gynecologist to check her hymen,” the “Live Your Life” rapper admitted.
T.I.’s shocking reveal went viral almost instantly, opening up a discussion about the rapper’s parenting style. However, most fans were very supportive of Deyjah, telling her that she could do whatever she chooses with her own body.
Meanwhile, the Rhythm and Flow judge received a lot of criticism, many calling him “overprotective” of his daughter. “T.I. just told the whole world his daughter’s p***y business, literally putting a target on her back so much that she had to turn the comments off her IG cause men are sexually harassing her. How is T.I. protecting Deyjah,” one user wrote. While other fans reminded the rapper that a hymen could be broken in various ways outside of sexual intercourse.
Since deactivating her account, fans have gone to Deyjah’s family’s pages to ask about the teen’s well-being. Some fans even took to Deyjah’s stepmom, Tiny Harris’ account to ask if she was alright. According to Inquisitr, the songstress has reportedly only responded with an eye-roll emoji.
