Trans actress Shauna Brooks is speaking out after recorded conversations between her and rapper Benzino leaked earlier this week. Rumors of Zino and Brooks’ relationship date back to 2020.
“My intent is NEVER to ‘out’ any1 but MY truth is always T while it‘s PAINFUL to relive PUBLICLY… I’m TIRED of men LOVING girls like us ONLY behind closed doors & treating us as if we’re disposable when it’s NO longer convenient. They want you to be their toy on their time,” she tweeted after the clips hit the net.

In the leaked audio, Benzino can be heard conversing with Shauna, seemingly telling her that it looks ‘bad’ for him to have a relationship with a trans woman. Zino tells Brooks that people are ‘cruel’ in his world and wouldn’t accept him in a separate clip.
As fans recall, Benzino and Shauna’s relationship was first exposed after Zino’s ex, Althea, shared DMs between Benzino and Shauna Brooks in 2020.
After the DMs went viral, Benzino and Shauna claimed they were just good friends who met on a movie set.
Following the viral clips, 50 Cent took to Instagram with a message for Benzino and former G-Unit groupmate Young Buck — who was also accused of dating a trans woman.
“Young Buck, Benzino just embrace who you are but don’t pat nobody butt when they score a basket 🏀fool. LOL😆Hahaha, Nah 🤔FOR REAL! PUNK,” 50 said on Instagram.
