Performance artist and trans icon Justin Vivian Bond went on a Facebook rant following D’Angelo’s appearance on Saturday Night Live last week.
Says Bond:
Years ago, at a party, I was walking past D’Angelo to go onstage when for no reason he kicked me on the thigh with his boot heel tearing my fishnets and drawing blood. Afterward, when I asked for an explanation he threatened to punch me in the face. Last night he was on Saturday Night Live surrounded by the phrase #BLACKLIVESMATTER. Black lives do matter. #TRANSLIVESMATTER too!!! You still owe me an apology. Good luck with your “Second Coming,” asshole.
From Frontiers Magazine: “The kick in question reportedly took place at Madonna’s 39th birthday party, where Bond performed live with Kenny Mellman as their famous cabaret act Kiki and Herb. At the time, D’Angelo’s manager insisted that the kick wasn’t motivated by homophobia, claiming that “It was more of a man-to-man thing than a gay thing,” suggesting that Bond may have spilled her drink on the singer.”
“Either way,” says the magazine, “it’s time for D’Angelo to ‘man up’ and apologize.”
