On Saturday (Oct. 3), Amber Rose held her "Slut Walk LA" event and she took the opportunity to share some of her personal experiences with slut-shaming. During her speech, Rose put her famous ex Kanye West on blast and broke down while discussing Wiz Khalifa.
Rose's controversial event brought out a slew of supporters in an effort to bring the topic of women’s inequality to the forefront. At one point, the model/businesswoman took the stage and reflected on being slut-shamed by West and Khalifa.
“Unfortunately, I was extremely slut shamed. I was called ‘nothing but a stripper.’ [He said] why would he ever be interested in me, I’m just a bald-head stripper from Philly,” she said of West. “I was a golddigger; apparently he had to take 30 showers after being with me. That’s what he said.”
Back in February, West stopped by the Breakfast Club and discussed his wife Kim Kardashian while going in on Rose. In his usual bold nature, West reassured the trio of radio hosts that he would not have dated Rose if Kardashian had given him a chance first. It was then that he made his comment about 30 showers.
She also reverted to her marriage to Wiz Khalifa and his now infamous lyrics on Juicy J's "For Everybody." Rose recalled being hurt by one line in particular and broke down on stage.
“In the midst of being hurt – if anyone had been going through a separation, or have ever been divorced, you know there’s a lot of feelings involved and it’s a very difficult time,” she explained. “He went on to make a song saying that he ‘fell in love with a stripper, but fell out of love quicker.’ As you can imagine, him being the love of my life, regardless if we’re going through a separation or not, that was extremely hurtful.”
Rose noted that she had received an apology from Khalifa but she also encouraged the crowd to do the same.
“I want to forgive Kanye for what he said about me. I want to let all that negativity go. I also forgive Wiz for what he said. Wiz actually apologized to me already, so I have forgiven him. I suggest that you guys do the same, and I’ll tell you why: because they’re ignorant at times. People are ignorant, and you have to be the bigger person, and be the positive person to forgive and move on and help other people around you that have been through the same thing.”
