Deb Antney Says Gucci Mane Appeared “Drugged Up” & Keyshia Ka’oir Wanted “Attention” In Recent Interview
On Tuesday, November 11, ‘The Breakfast Club’ released audio of Deb Antney sharing her thoughts on Gucci Mane and Keyshia Ka’oir’s recent interview on the show. In the audio clip, Antney explained that Gucci’s appearance on the show “just did not seem like him.”
“In a million years, you wouldn’t get to make me believe that he wasn’t drugged up or something wasn’t going on with him there,” she said. “I don’t feel she [Keyshia Ka’oir] should’ve came out nationally saying that that she said about her husband. It sounds like somebody that wants attention and that threw her husband out on the chopping block.”
Furthermore, Antney said that the couple’s appearance was not them advocating for mental health. Instead, she believes it was them “worrying about people trying to be on top.”
