AceShowbiz –
Malik Yoba has been accused of soliciting teen trans prostitutes after he spoke against transphobia. A trans woman, who goes by Mariah Lopez Ebony, took to Facebook on Sunday, September 1 to dish on the actor’s alleged “Pandora’s box”, which is paying minors, including her, for sex.

“Surviving Malik Yoba: We had sex, when I was just a teen,” so she wrote as a headline of her post. “For all who applaud and solute Malik Yoba for revealing he is so called ‘Trans Attracted’, understand that either because of deeper issues he has or, because of ‘society’ pushing him and others to deep, dark places, his admission to being sexually attracted to Trans women, is bound to open a Pandora’s box for him; not because the women are Trans, But because many of the Trans women he engaged in sexual exploration and exploitation with on 14th Street, Times Square and elsewhere, were minors. Including myself.”

Detailing her first encounter with the “Empire” star, Mariah claimed, “I started seeing him personally, with my own two eyes, cruising around the meatpacking district and Village, large black Jeep, looking for Trans fem sex workers, he preferred black trans girls; pretty, slim girls, but would pick up a latinx if she was put together and/or looked mixed.”

“What Malik paid me to do, as a 13 and 16 year old, wasn’t love,” she went on calling out the 51-year-old star. “His ignoring that I was clearly a child prostitute, wasn’t love. Paying for cheap thrills and secret orgasms; begging for unsafe, unprotected sex from a runaway Trans teen, while enjoying stardom as a successful artist and business man ….isn’t love.”

She also doubted Malik’s so-called support for trans women, asking, “Where was his LOOOOOOOOVVVVEEE for Trans women over the last 20 years? Where are his Trans girlfriends? Something tells me I’m not the only one who got some dirt on this individual and, something also tells me that he didn’t just up-and-decide to ‘come out’, he was pushed.”

Mariah ended her lengthy post with a warning to others, “Careful not to make a fool of yourself supporting him and his message. I am sure I am not the only trans person who was a minor when Malik Yoba first ‘loved’ them.”

Malik has not responded to the accusation of soliciting teen prostitutes. He was previously applauded for declaring his love for all women, cisgender and transgender, despite insisting that he’s straight. “love is love and acceptance of Trans love is ok and bullying has nothing to do with masculinity or HETEROSEXUAL behavior,” he wrote on an Instagram post. “TRANS PEOPLE DESERVE LOVE AND RESPECT AS DO THOSE OF US THAT LOVE THEM!!”
