First lady Melania Trump’s spokeswoman went after rapper T.I. on Tuesday, after the release of his latest video featuring a Melania look-alike dancing without clothes in what looks like the Oval Office.
“Like it or not, she is the first lady and this is the White House,” Stephanie Grisham, Trump’s communications director, told CNN in a statement. “It’s disrespectful and disgusting to portray her this way simply because of politics. These kinds of vulgar attacks only further the divisiveness and bias in our country — it needs to stop.”
T.I. stars in the video as himself, seated at a fake Resolute Desk in a setting made to look like the Oval Office. A Melania Trump look-alike then enters the “Oval Office” only wearing a jacket, which reads: “I really don’t care do u?.” The jacket the first lady wore to Texas in June.
The woman who has a clear resemblance of the first lady, then proceeds to strip off the jacket and suggestively dance on the desk.
In response to T.I.’s video, Grisham tweeted Saturday from her official Twitter account: “How is this acceptable? #disgusting #boycottT.I.”

Melania Trump has since then started a boycott against T.I.
