Social media is throwing serious shade at the singer after he recently revealed his overlapping lovers. In a viral clip, Dr. Cheyenne Bryant dragged him as a “womanizer” who lacked “discipline.”
Complex reports that Ne-Yo reacted to the drama, saying he’s “So Sick” of the criticism about his love life.

The singer recently appeared on the Gold Dimes podcast to discuss the relationship ruckus. The hosts pointed out that many comments, especially from women, attempted to “shame” him. However, Ne-Yo had a cavalier clapback for the malicious monogamists dragging him.
“You can’t shame me unless I care, and I don’t give a f**k. I so desperately need the world to know how much of a f**k I don’t give about what they think, what they say. I am 100 percent locked into the reality that this life is mine and I’m going to live this s**t the way I want to live it,” he declared.
Ne-Yo has embraced the polyamorous life following a dramatic divorce from Crystal Renay, who put him on blast for juggling other women throughout their marriage. One of those women included his now-baby mama, Sade Bagnerise.
“It ain’t a secret to anybody that I, not too long ago, got divorced. I’ve learned some things since the divorce and because of the divorce, to be honest with you. It made me realize some things about myself that I kind of had an idea of, but wasn’t completely locked into,” he continued.
Ne-Yo reflected on how that helped him to live his polyamorous truth, which could have avoided a lot of the philandering fallout. “I don’t have to lie anymore,” he previously said on The Lemon Drop Show about freeing himself from monogamy.

If it wasn’t clear enough that Ne-Yo is locked in with one of his polyamorous partners, he and one of his girlfriends got his and hers ink to prove it. The Shade Room reports the singer revealed huge lock and key tattoos, taking up a large part of the half-sleeves they have in the works.
The bold body art really hits home when the tatts are side by side as they hold hands. The reactions dragged drawings so much that fans forgot about his other girlfriend. One of his baddies already permanently rocks his signature silhouette, but this seemed to come as more of a shock.
Some joked that they got these done in the “jailhouse,” while the art reminded others of “basement parties for $10 a tatt.” Many comments claimed the hitmaker has “too much money” for those tattoos, but you can’t put a price on keeping it 100.
Hopefully, Ne-Yo is just as unbothered by the body art backlash as he is about commentary on his love life.
