Melania Trump’s Rep Calls for Boycott of T.I.: “How is this acceptable?”
Melania Trump’s Rep Calls for Boycott of T.I.: “How is this acceptable? “
The Oval Office has officially responded to T.I.‘s controversial music video trailer. T.I. is on his promotional run for his recently released tenth album, “Dime Trap,” and revealed a shocking trailer for one of the album’s music videos. The footage shows Donald Trump leaving the White House, while T.I. overlooks him from the Oval Office. A woman, blatantly impersonating Melania Trump, enters the office wearing Melania’s infamous “I really don’t care, do you?”-jacket, and strips naked. T.I. tweeted the trailer with this caption:
“Dear 45,
I ain’t Kanye.”

Melania’s communications director, Stephanie Grisham, tweeted her disapproval of the video and called for a boycott of the self-proclaimed “King of the South.” Stephanie tweeted:
“How is this acceptable?

Melania recently spoke to ABC News in an exclusive interview series called, “Being Melania.” When Melania Trump initially wore the Zara jacket, her communications director said there was no hidden message associated to the jacket. Now, Melania is telling a different story. She said:
“It — it was kind of a message, yes. I would prefer that they would focus on what I do and on my initiatives than what I wear.”
She continued:
“It was for the people and for the left-wing media who are criticizing me. And I wanna show them that I don’t care. You could criticize whatever you wanna say, but it will not stop me to do what I feel is right.”
