Blac Chyna once again finds herself in the news for naked, lewd and possibly illegal reasons.
Several months after the former reality star and mother of two attacked ex-fiance Rob Kardashian for posting revenge porn-like images of her on social media, Chyna has once again been exposed online.
Literally.
On Monday afternoon, a one minute and 23-second video of Blac Chyna went viral on Twitter.
The footage is mostly a close-up of Chyna’s nude torso and face in bed, as she’s lying on her back and performing oral sex on the mystery man.
There’s some dirty talk exchanged between the two, mostly centered on how much of the man’s penis Chyna can take into her mouth at once.
It actually ends with her choking on her unnamed lover’s genitalia.
While Twitter had a field day making fun of Chyna for her role in the sex tape (below), two attorneys have spoken out on her behalf and taken a very different approach to this matter.
First, Lisa Bloom spoke to E! News and TMZ, among other outlets.
The lawyer has become known for representing celebrities, especially those in these kinds of situations.
(She previously repped Mischa Barton in a “revenge porn” trial against an ex-boyfriend, for example.)
“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,” Bloom says, adding:
“It’s also a cruel attempt to slut shame women for being sexual.
“Girls have killed themselves over revenge porn. It’s not a joke.”
Walter Mosley, meanwhile, was equally direct in telling USA Today:
“This is a criminal matter for the police to investigate.”
Mosley also shared the above snapshot of himself and his client.
He went on to pen a lengthy caption that touched on the #MeToo movement, this moment in society and how men really need to change.
This is what the caption says:
We have to change this culture of abuse and assault against women. Today’s post saddens me deeply as it is an attack not only against my client but my friend.
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. I’m tired of telling my clients to not make videos because the men will put them out later.
It’s like I’m telling them not to wear short skirts because you’re going to entice a man to rape you. #smh And like most rapes, these betrayals often come from those most close to us.
So today I’m saying, men we need to do better. We need to tell each other to do better.
We need to stop sharing these videos with each other in the club, at the barbershop or (and especially) online. It is a morally corrupt action, which is (at least in California) criminal.
Maybe it is time to set an example.
Pretty strong and admirable words, right?
The real issue here really isn’t Blac Chyna’s sexual nature, desires or habits.
If she truly did not give Rob permission to share explicit photos of herself last year, and did not give this mystery person permission to leak this video online, then perhaps she has to reconsider the way she chooses men.
Yes, of course it’s entirely the fault of the men in question for posting these photos and this footage.
But this is an unfortunate pattern for Chyna and it may have something to do with her self-esteem.
Until she learns to love herself more and respect herself more, she may continue to end up with guys who want to film her pleasuring them in bed.
This can be a fun act in the right context.
However, Chyna has clearly never found herself in that context.
In September, Chyna and Rob agreed on a custody arrangement for their daughter, Dream Kardashian.
Blac dropped all revenge porn charges against Rob at the time, as well, and, to her credit, has never tried to keep him from seeing his only child.
She does seem like a responsible mother.
Maybe soon she’ll find herself a responsible sex partner.
