Tyrese Gibson Says He’s OK After a Emotional Break Down over the custody Battle with His EX Wife over the Child they have Together, He’s really missing His Daughter
Tyrese Gibson says he’s fine after sharing a Facebook video of himself CRYING during his messy custody battle with his ex-wife, Norma Gibson.
The “Fast and Furious” franchise star alarmed fans after posting a rambling video on Wednesday in which he CRIED and repeatedly pleaded, “Don’t take my baby.”
“I’m not doing anything illegal,” he said in the increasingly emotional and expletive-laden footage.
In the Facebook video, the actor-singer said that he last saw his 10-year-old daughter, Shayla, two months ago, accused his ex-wife of making him unemployable and declared that his legal fees are adding up to $13,000 a month. He also said that his wealthy friends have left him in the lurch and no one is listening to him.
“Contrary to what some of y’all may believe, I’m ACTUALLY OK,” he clarified in another video posted to Instagram on Wednesday.
On Thursday, the “Sweet Lady” singer shared another clip on Instagram soliciting prayers on his way to a hearing with his ex-wife, whom he separated from in 2009 after about two years of marriage.
Norma accused him of physically abusing their daughter in August — a claim he denies — and is trying to obtain a restraining order against him. (She was granted a temporary restraining ORDER last month.)
The actor has also been feuding with his “Fast and Furious” costar Dwayne Johnson. He said that Johnson’s decision to do a franchise spinoff slated for 2019 will delay the ninth installment of the muscle car films by a year.
Gibson contends that the move further exacerbates his financial well-being and ability to keep up the fight for his daughter. Gibson appeared to issue an ultimatum that if Johnson appears in “Fast and Furious 9,” then he will bow out of the film in protest. He also intentionally cropped out Johnson from an Instagram photo on Wednesday, adding #ShaylaRocks to the caption.
According to CinemaBlend, reports indicate that the ninth film was ACTUALLY pushed back so that director Justin Lin could fit it into his schedule.

OFFICIAL TRAILER RELEASED FOR “CALL ME MICKY,” EXECUTIVE PRODUCED BY DOMINIQUE JACKSON
New 22-minute documentary short follows Micky Angelo Petrillo after transitioning at 59, with the acclaimed POSE star helping bring his story to the screen
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE — NEW YORK: The official trailer for CALL ME MICKY, a new documentary short Executive Produced by acclaimed POSE star Dominique Jackson and directed by Andrew Rasmussen, has been released on YouTube ahead of the film’s upcoming festival run.
The 22-minute documentary follows Micky Angelo Petrillo, a larger-than-life New Jersey native who transitioned at 59 and is now discovering what comes next.
Rather than presenting transition as the conclusion of Petrillo’s story, CALL ME MICKY focuses on the life unfolding afterward — through Pride celebrations, open mics, friendships, storytelling and Petrillo’s increasingly public embrace of the man he fought decades to become.
Jackson also appears in the film, joining Petrillo for an intimate on-camera conversation about identity, visibility and what it means to finally live openly as yourself.
Internationally recognized for her commanding portrayal of Elektra on FX’s groundbreaking series POSE, Jackson is an actress, model, activist and producer who also served as an Executive Producer of the acclaimed documentary I’M YOUR VENUS, which premiered at the Tribeca Festival.
Petrillo is the author of the memoir Walking the Earth: First as a Woman, Then a Man.
While CALL ME MICKY captures one chapter of Petrillo’s much larger story, the film offers an intimate portrait of a man discovering that becoming yourself is not the ending — it may only be the beginning.
CALL ME MICKY is produced by CARDINAL, a New York City–based creative production company, and directed by CARDINAL co-founder Andrew Rasmussen.
The film begins its festival run this fall, with additional screenings and festival announcements forthcoming.
