The
Queen’s

star
Christian
Keyes
broke
his
silence
about
years
of
alleged
“sexual
harassment”
from
a
powerful
“billionaire”
in
Hollywood
he
says
tried
to
climb
in
bed
with
him
and
offered
$100,000
to
strip.

you
thought
that
Diddy
s**t
was
crazy,
you
don’t
even
know…”

The
actor
spoke
his
difficult
truth
on
Friday
night
in
an
hour-long
Instagram
Live.
Keyes
revealed
that
he’s
resigned
to
“taking
the
scenic
route”
in
his
career
after
turning
down
alleged
offers
to
take
his
clothes
off
for
money
or
return
to
a
private
residence
after
auditioning
for
a
role.
“I
didn’t
sell
my
soul
or
my
a**
for
success,”
he
confessed.
Keyes
hopes
people
will
believe
him
when
he
names
the
“shady
and
predatory”
beloved
public
figure.
He
claims
to
have
recordings
of
the
misconduct
dating
back
nearly
20
years.
“At
some
point
soon,
it’s
going
to
have
to
come
out.
I
kept
one
of
these
on
me
since
’05,”
he
said,
holding
up
a
digital
voice
recorder
pen.
“Whether
it’s
a
keychain
recorder
or
a
pen
because
most
predators
would
check
your
phone.
Once
the
sexual
harassment
started,
I
was
like,
‘I
need
to
protect
me.
I’m
saying
no,
and
I
don’t
want
this
person,
as
powerful
as
they
are,
to
try
to
get
in
the
way
of
my
work.’
So
I
started
recording.”
According
to
IMDb,
in
2005,
Keyes
made
his
feature
film
acting
debut
in
Tyler
Perry’s
Diary
of
a
Mad
Black
Woman. He
performed
in
several
stage
plays,
series,
and
independent
films
for
the
next
decade,
including
recurring
roles
in
Supernatural,
The
Family
Business,
DC’s Legends
of
Tomorrow,
The
Young
and
the
Restless, and 9-1-1.
Christian
Keyes
Promises
To
Come
Forward
To
The
Police
With
His
Receipts
And
Recordings
Of
Alleged
Harassment
Keyes
is
best
known
for
starring
in
Saints
&
Sinners,
In
Contempt,
and
most
recently,
All
the
Queen’s
Men.
He
also
appeared
in
The
Boys
and
Reasonable
Doubt. The
Detroit
native
did
not
go
into
detail
about
who
harassed
him
throughout
his
decades
of
acting
but
promised
to
expose
them
soon.
“I
want
to
tell
it
on
the
mountain,
over
the
hills
and
everywhere.
I
want
to
speak
on
it.
The
good
news
is
that
they
don’t
even
have
to
believe
me.
Hopefully
they
do,
but
if
they
don’t,
they
can
hear
this
person.
Since
the
sexual
harassment
started,
I’ve
carried
many
recorder
devices
on
me:
keychains,
pens,
thumb
drives,
all
of
the
above.
“I
really
want
to
air
that
s**t
out
because
that
bothers
me
when
I’m
alone
at
night.
Man,
the
world
is
celebrating
this
person
and
they
don’t
even
know
the
shady
and
predatory
way
this
person
moves.
Predators
resent
the
prey
that
gets
away,
so
when
you
don’t
say
yes,
when
you
don’t
say
‘ok,
I’ll
acquiesce
and
literally
and
figuratively
play
ball,’
because
we
not
doing
that,
they
resent
you.”
Keyes
also
said
this
powerful
person
felt
comfortable
with
the
misconduct
because
he
allegedly
claimed
“he
had
multiple
young
Black
men
on
the
payroll.
And
they
would
just
show
up
when
he
requested
them
to
be
there.”
Despite
hinting
at
multiple
other
alleged
victims,
Keyes
referenced
confidentiality
and
non-disclosure
agreements
that
may
keep
them
quiet.
However,
he
explained
that
these
contracts
don’t
prevent
him
from
turning
over
evidence
of
criminal
activity.

The
proud
father
emphasized
that
he
doesn’t
have
any
attraction
to
men,
but
“these
people
kept
on
for
years.
Sexual
harassment
is
a
crime.
Attempted
sexual
assault
is
a
felony,”
he
repeated.
He
also
offered
to
take
multiple
polygraph
tests
to
prove
that
he
was
telling
the
truth.
Keyes
got
emotional
about
these
situations,
which
kept
him
up
at
night
over
the
years.
“Some
of
the
people
you
think
are
your
mentors
are
literally
and
figuratively
trying
to
f**k
you,”
he
said.

Even
when
he
wasn’t
working
with
or
for
the
people
who
allegedly
harassed
him,
Keyes
claims
these
unnamed
people
continued
to
proposition
him.
In
addition
to
acting
roles,
he
said
he
turned
down
$100,000
to
strip,
which
he
says
he
recorded.
“I
wasn’t
working
for
him
the
month
and
the
year
that
he
showed
up
to
my
apartment
and
offered
me
$100,000
to
take
my
clothes
off.
‘I
don’t
even
need
to
touch
you.
I
just
want
to
see
you
naked.’
I
declined,”
Keyes
said.
He
continued,
“I
recorded
it
because
I
didn’t
trust
him.
I
told
him
over
and
over,
but
he
would
still
always
try
s**t.
So,
if
people
don’t
believe
me,
they
can
hear
him
in
his
voice.
I
have
always
kept
something
on
me.”
The
BET+
star
shared
that
he
has
several
recordings
and
backups
he
plans
to
send
to
the
police.
He
worried
about
the
other
people
put
in
the
same
compromising
positions.
“I
can
press
play
and
you’ll
recognize
the
voice
immediately
asking
me
to
strip
for
$100K.
You’ll
know
right
away,
and
it
will
break
your
heart.
“
Following
the
alleged
offer
to
strip,
Keyes
said
he
has
documentation
from
the
man
offering
to
buy
him
a
car
as
an
apology.
He
braced
himself
to
be
“painted
as
the
villain”
after
years
of
reported
abuse,
intimidation,
and
harassment
because
this
person
is
“deified.”

In
another
alleged
incident,
Keyes
was
sleeping
off
a
night
of
drinking
after
an
event
in
this
person’s
home.
He
said
the
man
tried
to
climb
into
bed
with
him
and
“blamed
it
on
the
alcohol.”
After
trying
to
forgive
and
leave
with
a
handshake,
Keyes
says
the
man
grabbed
his
penis
instead
of
his
hand.
It’s
“never
been
about
money,”
for
Keyes,
who
said
he
intentionally
let
the
statute
of
limitations
expire.
Cassie
coming
forward
with
the
bombshell
abuse
lawsuit
against
Diddy
inspired
the
actor
to
come
forward.
“I’m
not
blaming
myself
for
saying
no.
I’m
not
blaming
myself
for
almost
quitting
acting.
I’m
mad
at
myself
for
not
being
brave
enough
to
say
something
sooner.
That’s
the
only
thing
I
regret,”
he
continued.
Keyes
recalled
his
own
desperation
for
money
and
opportunities
at
the
time,
“I
was
broke
as
f**k.”
He
teared
up
thinking
about
the
similarly
struggling
men
“on
the
payroll”
who
“do
whatever
he
wants.”
“If
you
think
that
Diddy
s**t
was
crazy,
you
don’t
even
know,”
Keyes
continued.
“I
didn’t
want
to
be
the
person
who
broke
y’all
heart.”
