Update (Jan. 11, 2022): Basketball star Dylan Gonzalez posted a statement on Twitter about Trey Songz, saying she’s been “forced to relive in my mind, and suffer anew, the long-suppressed horror and unbearable PTSD of my rape by his very hands at a well known Las Vegas Hotel.”
The statement comes after she previously accused the singer of being a rapist. In her message shared just before the new year, Gonzalez referred to Songz as a rapist but refrained from saying if she had been sexually assaulted by him, as Blavity previously reported.
In her post shared on Tuesday, she expressed her support for survivors of sexual abuse and requested for privacy as she pursues “the best course of action and all of my legal options.”

“I stand with you and encourage all those who have suffered abuse to speak out and come forward. suppression of our voices only emboldens our oppressors, and you cannot heal what you do not reveal,” she said.
Original (Jan. 4, 2022): Trey Songz came under fire just before the start of 2022 when he was accused, again, of sexual misconduct — this time, by former University of Nevada, Las Vegas women’s basketball player Dylan Gonzalez. Gonzalez shook social media with a short tweet aimed at the R&B star.
“Trey Songz is a rapist,” she wrote. “Lord forgive me I Couldn’t hold that in another year. See you in 2022.”
The athlete turned music artist didn’t share any details about the allegation, nor did she say if she was involved in a sexual interaction with him. However, her statement joins a string of cases and accusations levied against the “Can’t Help but Wait” singer by women.
