The 14-year old teen is an aspiring model and singer named Molly O'Malia. She hired attorney Gloria Allred, who was by her side during a press conference Monday, January 4.
"I'm very upset that a story about Tyga, Kylie Jenner and me was published in OK! Magazine, and I want people to know the truth," Omalia said at the press conference, while reading from a prepared statement. "The truth is that Tyga contacted me first. He direct messaged me on Instagram. I knew who he was, but I was surprised he was contacting me. I thought it could possibly be about my music, but he did not mention that in his initial communication. I thought that was strange, but I thought that he would bring it up in his next message. However, he didn't mention it in the next message. I began to feel uncomfortable when he asked me to FaceTime with him. He asked me to FaceTime three times, but I didn't do it. Because of my discomfort with why he wanted to communicate with me I quickly stopped responding."
O'Malia goes on to say that she didn't give OK! Magazine the texts and didn't know how they obtained them. She slammed the publication for running the story without fact checking it first with her and her mother.
In response to the growing controversy Tyga's manager Anthony Martini spoke with TMZ in an attempt to clear his client's name.
Martini said Tyga's only interest in O'Malia was as a potential artist for his Last Kings record label. He wanted to FaceTime with her so he could hear her sing. Martini added that things never got "uncomfortable" during the conversations.
Texts obtained by TMZ show that O'Malia told the 26-year old rapper that she was 17.
Whether this damages Tyga's relationship with Kylie or his career remains to be seen.
