while someone else quipped that a rich man would probably be messaging hundreds of women.
Whether the alleged DM is genuine or not remains unclear, but that did little to slow the online chatter. As the debate continues, social media remains split between those questioning the screenshot and those convinced the controversy fits the singer's headline-making reputation.
