B2K singer Omarion says ‘press release’ was fake: He’s not gay or bisexual

OMARION

”Check it out ‘I DID NOT RELEASE THAT STATEMENT’,whatever you like is your business but I AINT GAY OR BISEXUAL,I love women PERIOD!!!!!!!”

Tweet released by singer Omarion (aka Omari Ismael Grandberry), 26,  formerly of the group B2K. Over the weekend a mysterious “press release” was picked up by blogs like Bossip.com in which Omarion was allegedly quoted as saying, ”I am not at all what certain ex-band members are trying to paint me as, I am however a respectable, mature, proud, bisexual man.” Many of those blog entries have now disappeared.
