What’s up, it’s Sussan Mourad with Clevver News, and it’s the moment we’ve all been
waiting for…
Nessa Barrett is finally speaking out about what really happened between her and Chase
that led to a massive war between TikTok houses.
If you hadn’t heard of TikTok groups The Sway House or The Hype House before yesterday,
this week in entertainment news has probably been a lot to take in.
But if you’ve been following along since yesterday, you’d know that Charli D’Amelio
put her ex-boyfriend Chase Hudson AKA Lil Huddy on blast for kissing Josh Richard’s
ex-girlfriend Nessa Barrett and neglecting to tell her when visiting Charli at her home
shortly after.
After Chase admitted that he ONLY kissed Nessa while he and Charli were broken up, Chase
then decided to expose all of his “friends” for also allegedly cheating on their significant
others in the past.
He has since deleted the tweet, but we got a screenshot before it was taken down.
This led Charli to respond to Chase’s allegations, firing back with a tweet saying, “Stop deflecting
your actions onto others because you can’t take responsibility, Chase.
Want me to talk about how you treated me throughout our relationship or do you just want to continue
to play the victim?”
Fans began supporting Charli online, which led to fellow Hype House and Sway House members
unfollowing Chase on social media and attempting to do damage control after his shady allegations,
as the hashtag #LilHuddyIsOverParty began trending.
Charli has since removed all her photos and videos featuring Chase.
As it seems everyone involved in the drama has spoken out one way or another, fans noticed
that Nessa had been awfully quiet while the allegations and rumors were circulating…
until Tuesday when she released a statement to People.
In the article published by People, in a lengthy statement, Nessa confirmed that she and Chase
kissed, but that it was nothing more than that, saying QUOTE, "I’m only going to speak
on this matter once because there are far more important things happening in the world
right now.
I'm tired of being everyone's scapegoat.
No matter what I say or what people say I've done, I get hate online.
Yes, Chase kissed me & nothing else happened after that.
I can speak for the both of us that it didn’t mean anything.”
Nessa then went on to claim that she felt she was being slut shamed and cyber bullied
to the point where she was contemplating deleting social media.
She added, QUOTE “The narrative that is being spun around me is one of hate and slut
shaming, and the constant DM's and emails of people telling me I’m stupid and should
kill myself are getting to be too much for to me bear.
I’ve deleted my apps off my phone and only re-download to post - it's gotten so bad.
it makes me want to quit social media altogether.”
Nessa finished her statement by thanking her true friends and family, and for music being
her solace and her therapy every day.
She added, “I’m excited to share my side of the story and my truth through my music
with the world when it's ready.”
Clearly this isn’t the last we’ll hear from Nessa, but fans seem to have a lot to
say for the time being.
Many took to Instagram to respond to her statement praising her for being the only one who seemingly
didn’t throw shade toward any other TikToker.
One user wrote, “She handled it the most mature out of everyone.
She didn’t shade people in tweets.”
Another fan commented, “Tbh she handled it better than everyone.”
But Nessa’s statement didn’t exactly sit well with some fans who felt this whole thing
was just a ploy to promote her upcoming music.
One user wrote, “sis knew this was going all over the internet had to promote her music.”
Another person said, “This don’t mean you get to become a rapper sweetheart.”
Others believe that if it really WAS just a kiss, that Nessa could’ve stepped in and
just… not done it, like this person who wrote, “I’m sorry but she could’ve easily
avoided that kiss.”
Neither Charli nor Chase have yet to comment on Nessa’s response, but Josh had a few
final words on the matter.
He also took to Twitter yesterday to share an insightful message about “cutting fake
people out of his life,” adding, “You give them f***ing 2nd chances and they go
behind your back and try and f*** with you again.
Biggest advice I have for you all, learn who’s real!
Wish everyone the best and hope they all succeed.
This most likely won't’ be the last of the drama, so we will continue to keep refreshing
