Pass/Fail: Tyrese HEATED EXCHANGE With Home Depot KAREN After Being DENIED Services UPDATE: HE SUING!!

Cryrese at it again.

Show your ID and keep it moving. Yes, you're a celebrity but people aren't risking getting fired by not following store policy. So what others let it slide?

He looks like a real clown here.

Cryrese n.
  1. a person, especially a Tyrese -type, who sheds tears accompanied with snot bubbles frequently or readily and preferably in front of a camera to post on social media at a later date.
 
Arthur Blank and Bernie Marcus have carefully crafted their public images as well as the brand's image, but a simple look at their campaign donations tells you how they view minorities other than their own (J).

I interacted with Bernie personally and could say some stuff but whatever.

Please do.
 
Silly shit.
- Dude, just present your ID.
This is on some Hollyweird "I'm a popular celebrity" shit.
If Tyrese was "Joe Shmoe" trying to make a large purchase at Home Depot using a credit card, he would have to present ID to make the purchase.
And If anybody else had made the claim; "The CEO of Home Depot is my neighbor", the cashier would have still demanded his ID for a large purchase.

Lastly, using a credit card to buy 2 candy bars ain't the same thing as using it to purchase $5000 worth of goods and materials for a home construction project. :smh:

the problem with tyrese is this clip is this, he dosent have the money to pay someone on his team to handle these mundane issues. he forgets that he is not suppose to be in the mix, that is what a pa assistant is for, that is what a personal concierge is for
 


Ok so Tyrese getting a remodel done at one of his homes. He sends the contractors to the local home depot he always uses for YEARS.

the girl there decides to not accept his massive order because they don't have Tyrese ID along with his card.

They call Tyrese he facetime with the girl, he is fairly polite explains the situation and she still (rudely) says no. She refuses to give her name etc.

Tyrese adds he knows the COO of Home Depot Corp who just happens to be his neighbor in ATL.

He goes there personally she is shook and is still very rude and disrespectful.

Tyrese keeps his coolthe entire store looks at her side eyed even her own staff. He calls her racist.

She insists its store policy but Tyrese insists this has never been asked before and other home depot staff seem to agree.

Was Tyrese wrong at any point?

And has this happened to any bgol brothers?

:idea:

She was wrong

I’ve sent a contractor into HD and had them call not FaceTime and given them my card info on more than one occasion with no issue

he always ends up in some sort of drama lately
 
Tyrese needs some healing, he's still going through it since his mom passed away from covid.
 
You think he can text the CEO like that? Do you know what CEOs do? He don’t care about what Tyrese got going on.
Gibson lost in my eyes. The Pilgrim broad was able to disrupt his project, time, and patience. I would have texted the CEO from the comfort of my heated pool with the quickness. Shit would have been handled on rich people time.

Tyrese Gibson is suing Home Depot after an alleged racial profiling incident at a Los Angeles-area store earlier this year.

According to a complaint filed Wednesday in L.A. Superior Court, the Fast and Furious actor visited a Home Depot store in West Hills, Calif., with two associates on Feb. 11, and the trio "experienced outrageous discriminatory mistreatment and consumer racial profiling first-hand."

Gibson and his associates, Eric Mora and Manuel Hernandez, are seeking $1 million in damages — the amount Gibson estimates he's spent at the home improvement company over the years — as well as statutory damages, attorney's fees, punitive damages, a declaratory judgment declaring that Home Depot's actions violated California's Unruh Civil Rights Act, pre-judgment and post-judgment interest, and "such other relief as the Court may deem just and proper."

A Home Depot spokesperson said in a statement to EW, "Diversity and respect for all people are core to who we are, and we do not tolerate discrimination in any form. We value Mr. Gibson as a customer, and in the months since this happened, we've reached out to him and his attorneys several times to try to resolve his concerns. We will continue to do so."

Gibson's complaint, which EW has reviewed, alleges that during a prolonged checkout, due to a "purported glitch in the system," fans began to gather, noticing Gibson. Not wishing to cause a disturbance in the store, Gibson decided to leave and wait in his car while Mora and Hernandez completed the transaction.


The complaint says at this point Gibson told the cashier of his plan, and that his associates would be using his credit card, to which the cashier "acknowledged Gibson and said he understood." Then, the lawsuit claims, "Gibson asked the cashier if the cashier needed anything further from him to complete the transaction. The cashier said no, and that Gibson could leave."

At this point, the cashier allegedly continued to refuse to complete the transaction, even after Gibson used FaceTime and later returned to the store to sort things out. "The cashier gave no reasonable explanation other than repeating 'store policy' and demanded to see a form of identification," the complaint says. "The manager refused to speak with Gibson in person. It was only after significant heated discussion with the cashier that Gibson was finally able to complete the transaction."

The complaint adds, "The actions of the cashier and manager were discriminatory based on race and origin. There is no other plausible explanation for the mistreatment of Plaintiffs. The transaction was refused, despite Gibson's repeated authorizations, because of Plaintiffs' skin color and, in the case of Mora and Hernandez, also because of their national origin. This is a clear and deplorable instance of discriminatory mistreatment and consumer racial profiling. The treatment of Gibson, Mora and Hernandez by The Home Depot was humiliating and demeaning."

Representatives for Gibson didn't immediately respond to EW's request for comment on the lawsuit.
