This month saw Lil Kim celebrated for her contributions to black culture by the city of New York and honoured with a ceremony erected to honour her undeniable impact.
Alas, what should have been a day of love, laughter and celebration has turned into one of concern and confusion after several spectators took to Twitter to condemn her friend Maino for- as far as they see it- trying to steal her shine in the tackiest way.
Watch below….
Maino been thirsty. Eww.

Anyone who knows even a little bit about Lil Kim knows she’s had some abusive relationships so that Maino shit has me concerned as fuck.

I don’t know, but this video of Lil Kim and Maino is lowkey disturbing. From his hand on her shoulder, the fact she doesn’t want him to touch her, and him trying to play off talking to her through clinched teeth before whispering something in her ear, is A LOT! pic.twitter.com/3Ggpq0uhol

Idk what Maino did to Lil Kim before they posed for pics but I find nothing funny about him constantly touching her when she clearly doesn’t want him to.

Lil Kim and Maino used to date years ago. He fucked it up and made music to get back into her good graces. It is weird he is there to support her when she definitely does NOT bang with him.
This behavior in the video is aggressive and unnecessary https://t.co/2nRdTnGsiB

Maino stole an impromptu moment to jokingly express himself to Lil’ Kim this past Monday, June 11th, as he and several others came together to celebrate the Queen of Hip-Hop during a ceremony in honor of African… https://t.co/Q6uXBXP7Yq

The video of Lil Kim accepting that award & how Maino made her uncomfortable is a real life example of men not taking consent seriously.

Regardless of what kinda relationship Lil Kim & Maino had, he violated & disrespected her. I’m disgusted for her. What’s more disturbing & disgusting is no one had her back.

Why wouldn’t Maino leave Lil Kim alone ?

Maino interrupting Lil Kim’s ceremony was disgusting. The guy then continues to harrass her during photos .. what a nasty piece of work.

lmao her 3 or 4 fans are doing too much lmfaooooooo
What about her number 1 can, Nicki? She’s not doing enough. Hahahahahahah
How? He was clearly being a creep and she was obviously bothered by it.
I’m horrified. That was her moment and an egotistical **** took it away and now it’s about that situation rather than her moment!
Omg lil Kim, please file a restraining order… this is not the first time he did that to her. I hope she gets away from in fast. He’s evil as hell’s. He’s very abusive in every way, mentally, physically.
That’s crazy, where are Kim’s people?
Lil Kim clearly looks uncomfortable in the video. Hopefully he’s just an ex whom hasn’t seen her in awhile so he decided to get fresh with her and Kim wasn’t having it. I hope she’s ok.
