AceShowbiz - Tyrese Gibson failed to show his chemistry with his girlfriend on Instagram Live. During a recent livestream, the singer-turned-actor and his on-again, off-again girlfriend Zelie Timothy went live to shed some light on their relationship, but she instead made a shocking confession about her crush on one of his co-stars.
When asked how they met, they revealed that Tyrese slid into Zelie's DMs. Things quickly went south from there as she revealed that she wasn't interested in him at first and she was more into his "Fast and Furious" co-star Paul Walker.
"My type was actually Paul Walker. Rest in peace," Zelie remarked while caressing Tyrese. "But [Tyrese] wasn't my type at all. And my type is not 'white.' I'm just saying I was more interested in Paul."
Looking visibly annoyed, the 44-year-old star told her, "Don't touch me." Clearly missing the clue, she further divulged, "Even when I met [Tyrese], I was like, 'Eh, he's kind of old.' I just like his smile. It's pretty cool. His personality ... His personality was OK."
"This went really bad," Tyrese remarked. "This just went really bad really fast. I'm getting off Live." She didn't stop there though as she continued, "He didn't understand the Instagram model thing, so he would always talk down on Instagram models."
"So you wanted the homie; you didn't want me. You said I'm old," Tyrese replied. "I never said I wanted the homie, I just said he was cuter," Zelie responded. She went on justifying her confession, "You know all this already. I wasn't your type either. So relax. And, yeah, so now we're here, and it's an actual, somewhat of a love story, which is crazy."
Meanwhile, Tyrese already lost his interest in the Q&A session, declaring, "I'm done."
Zelie quickly caught heat with her remarks, as many deemed her comments "mean" and "disrespectful" towards her boyfriend. "She does not respect that man. It's a difference between being honest and disrespect..," said one Twitter user, who added, "If he do her dirty after this I don't even blame him cuz that's low."
Another commented on the video, "Bro was soooooo Embarrassssed and honestly- I was embarrassed for him as well. Smh she Wild." A third weighed in, "New this crazy. she doesn't like him a single bit, she just keot going too. Sheeesh."
Someone else urged Tyrese to leave Zelie as saying, "@Tyrese seeing all these red flags and still want to stay. And ain't no way God sent her to you. I pray you stop wasting your time."
