0 Wiz Khalifa Comments On Amber Rose’s Nude Pics

 Over the past few months, several sets of nude Amber Rose pics  leaked online. In a recent interview with Sister 2 Sister Magazine, young Khalifa decided to voice his opinion on the matter:

“I could see if that was what she was doing while I’m with her or something like that and it was in a disrespectful way, but it’s nothing like that. It’s not even, like, the pictures or her past is a raunchy past,” says the rapper in the latest issue of Sister 2 Sister magazine.

“She did what she had to do. There’s plenty of powerful women who overcame that, and that’s what she really is, an example of what work and faith in God, you know what I’m saying, can get you into a positive situation. You can make a positive out of a negative,” he said.

“The biggest misconception about Amber is that she wants attention,” he later continued. “Everybody thinks that she does stuff for attention and that she loves attention, but she’s really, really reserved and shy. She just gets attention ’cause she’s dope.” - Wiz Khalifa
