Seems like Saweetie wants you to “tap in” on Pornhub.
Saweetie is known for being a beautiful, intelligent fixture in the female rap community. Her brand is centered around the “bougie, pretty girl” aesthetic. So it’s not exactly surprising that some may raise their eyebrows and turn up their noses at Sweetie’s latest announcement. Although, she is by no means the first rapper to team up with the platform.
The Icy Girl posted about her partnership with the porn-viewing platform on Instagram Tuesday night, donning in a latex catsuit with outrageously showing off some titties that looked like they were ready to be used as weapons.
Many fans claimed to be disappointed in her for partnering with a porn platform that has been recently linked to child abuse allegations. For those unfamiliar Pornhub was first investigated by advertising partners Mastercard and Visa, after accusations surfaced that the platform hosted underage individuals in its video content, but refused to take action about said complaints. Shortly after the story broke though, they did take action and removed a slew of video content. The company also stated that it will require verification for any video content uploaded to its platform moving forward. Fredo Bang, oddly enough, was apparently not happy with this move.
As far as Saweetie’s announcement goes, here’s how some people took it on Twitter. Meanwhile, Saweetie is debating her official ‘super-hero’ name on twitter– “dick wrangler” appears to be taking the lead in the comments.
Do you see anything wrong with this partnership? Peep some of the reactions below:

This entirely contradicts the icy girls brand of empowered and intellectual women. You could’ve easily partnered with bellesa, and that would’ve given them way more recognition too /gotten ppl to switch over from pornhub

Saweetie I’m hugely disappointed in your actions and ignorance by partnering with PornHub. It baffles me how you have gone public with a brand that has been sued and is being investigated for child rape and trafficking.

NOO not saweetie being a pornhub partner after they got exposed & had to completely restructure their operation which was largely funded by the profits of videos featuring ppl unaware they were recorded, sex trafficking, rape, revenge porn, child abuse, and other criminal content

It will be a lot of celebrities and influencers collaborating with PornHub NOT just Saweetie and City Girls. 🌚 They are losing money from Visa, Discover and MasterCard withdrawing their contracts due to the child abuse “allegations” so they about to exhaust all possible options.
