O'Malia, a model, who is represented by Gloria Allred had said Tyga initiated contact with her first on Instagram contrary to earlier reports in December.
Speaking at a press conference about her interaction with Tyga, on Monday, January 4, Omalia said:
“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. The truth is that Tyga contacted me first. He direct-messaged me on Instagram. I knew who he was, but I was surprised that he was contacting me. I thought that it could possibly be about my music but he did not mention that in his initial communication. I thought that was strange but I was thinking he would bring it up in his next message to me. However, he didn’t mention in the next message” said the 14-year-old girl in the video.
She said after a while she got uncomfortable talking to Tyga.
“I began to feel uncomfortable when he asked me to FaceTime with him,” said the girl. "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.”
Tyga responded to the claims, making it clear that he had only contacted O'Malia for his record label and that, she had told him she had been 17 at the time, not 14.
