Tyrese Gibson pushes back at claims made by DJ Envy that he ‘flirted’ and was ‘inappropriate’ with radio host’s wife Gia Casey

Tyrese Gibson has been embroiled in a nasty war of words with DJ Envy and wife Gia Casey after the couple claimed the actor had behaved inappropriately towards her by ‘flirting’ and making ‘inappropriate compliments’.

The conflict between the Fast & Furious actor, 44, and DJ Envy, 46, whose real name is Raashaun Casey, became public when they discussed the issue on the latter’s Breakfast Club radio show on 105.1 FM in New York City on Thursday.

During the conversation, DJ Envy told the Watts, Los Angeles, resident that he wanted to punch his mouth in response to comments Gibson made to 44-year-old Gia, which she later described as “flirting and inappropriate compliments to a woman who is married.’

Gibson adamantly denied any wrongdoing in an extended clip he posted to his Instagram Monday, saying he never had any contact “directly with Envy or directly with his wife in which I disrespected him or her.”

Gibson said he thoroughly reviewed his text message logs to make sure he never made comments that could be misconstrued.

DJ Envy, 46, and wife Gia, 44, were photographed earlier this year in honor of Valentine’s Day. DJ Envy stated that Tyrese supported him in rebuilding his marriage to Casey after being unfaithful to her, but things between them have since deteriorated.

“I literally just had to pull out some receipts and I had to look at my phone and say, ‘When was the last time we actually communicated, and does something about our communication feel like I was actually disrespecting his wife or him? ” said Gibson.

The Baby Boy actor said it was “the most hurtful thing ever” to be involved in such a situation, dismissing the idea that the drugs he was allegedly taking played a role in his allegedly unpleasant behavior towards the couple.

“Whether I was on psychiatric drugs or not, you are not describing me as a man,” he said.

In the radio program ThursdayDJ Envy said he blocked Gibson from his contact list because he was put off by the way the actor interacted with others.

“I didn’t want to see Tyrese like that — that’s not the man my brother was,” DJ Envy said.

Gibson showed off a group text message from August 2022 in the clip on Tuesday that included both DJ Envy and Gia, saying it proved the couple had not been truthful in saying he and Gia had blocked Gibson from her contacts because of his comments.

‘I have received receipts. If your wife has blocked me, how do we communicate about anything on August 23, 2022?” said Gibson.

Gibson said DJ Envy lied when he claimed he unblocked him last month, saying, “That’s a lie, man, that’s a lie.”

Gibson adamantly denied any wrongdoing in a 22-minute clip he posted Monday, saying he never had any communication “directly with Envy or directly with his wife where I disrespected him or her.”

Gibson said he thoroughly reviewed his text message logs to make sure he never made comments that could be misconstrued.

DJ Envy had publicly stated in the past that Tyrese supported him in rebuilding his marriage to Casey after being unfaithful to her.

In their conversation on the radio show last week, Gibson said he had been taking “mental drugs” during the time he clashed with DJ Envy, saying it was like being drunk.

Gibson asked DJ Envy if he took that into account, because he knew that ‘typically this guy isn’t like that.’

DJ Envy said he “never had a conversation” with Gibson at the time because he “never wanted to see him in that condition.”

He added: “The person who was talking to my wife at the time with the text messages, I didn’t like that. And I wanted to remember Tyrese as a brother who helped my relationship. So I took a step back.

“I didn’t know what you were going through and I tried to talk to you, and I saw who you were… and when I saw the way you were talking, I said, ‘I’m going to take a step back.’

Gibson said DJ Envy had been a wishy-washy friend to him, saying, “How convenient for you to step back – I never stepped back.”

DJ Envy admitted that Gibson had been a loyal friend in the past, but things changed after his allegedly offensive conversation with Gia.

“I never spoke to your wife in a disrespectful way – and you spoke to mine in a disrespectful way,” DJ Envy said. ‘And I never told anyone that.

“And you can say you were on medication and you can say you weren’t, but as a man, Tyrese, some of the things you said deserve me to shut you up.”

DJ Envy said that due to some of Gibson’s comments, Gia is refusing to return calls.

“That’s why I stopped talking to you and contacting you,” he said. “I’m like, ‘I don’t want to remember my brother like that.'”

On Tuesday, DJ Envy and his wife addressed Gibson’s social comments The breakfast clubsaying that while he had been a helpful presence in the past, they decided to cut off contact with him twice years ago.

Gia said her perception was that “lines were being crossed” in Gibson’s conversations with her, which she sometimes characterized as “inappropriate and uncomfortable.”

She explained, “I felt like he was extremely demanding of my time and attention, and if I didn’t give him my time and attention, he would get very angry, very upset.

“There was flirting and inappropriate compliments given to a woman who is married.”
