Kenyan music producer Tedd Josiah has called out male celebrities who use their status to exploit vulnerable women.
According to Tedd, being a celebrity does not give one the right to disrespect and take advantage of others.
‘You’re a CELEBRITY meaning you are CELEBRATED…. for what? For deeming women? For drinking yourself stupid? For all the drugs you can consume? Who what????’ Tedd asked in a stern warning to his fellow male celebrities.
He added, ‘God can and will take that money you are using as a tool to hurt other people. He can and will take that celebrity status you are using to hurt other people, he can and will bring you to your “road to Damascus” and trust me like Saul you will become Paul. DON’T TEST GOD just because you are a “Celeb” DON’T! Let’s raise our daughters to know better men and know men can be better than this.’
His comments come as a reminder that some male celebrities have been charged with sexual abuse and accused of infecting women with herpes and STIs in the past.
