Lala Baptiste Speaks Out In Support Of Jay Cinco
Cinco’s pregnant girlfriend Lala Baptiste stepped into the comments to clarify Cinco’s intent, suggesting his words were taken out of context.
“He’s literally off wine and worded it very wrong 😂 anyone who knows him knows he def wasn’t trying to discredit Streamer U,” she wrote. “He was talking about people expecting certain numbers because of that.”
Additionally, Jay Cinco too addressed the backlash himself, explaining that his comments were about perception, not against Kai Cenat.
“Not what I meant… I meant it messed up the perception of views (doing good enough), not as in a bad thing for the streaming community,” he wrote. “I praise Streamer U all the time… it changed lives. It just also made creators feel like they had to have crazy views… overly love on my end, never my intentions.”
He ended his statement with an apology, adding that he may have misspoken.
