AceShowbiz - Dionne Warwick has been asked to squash Anita Baker and Babyface's beef by Lil Duval. The "I'll Never Fall in Love Again" hitmaker, however, preferred not to insert herself into the drama because it's none of her business.
Duval sent the request to Dionne via Twitter by writing, "Hey @dionnewarwick can u squash this baby face Anita baker beef for us please." In response, he quote-tweeted him and stated, "Baby, that ain't got nothing to do with me."
The tension between Anita and Babyface began after Babyface claimed he was asked to pull out of her show in Newark on May 10. I am truly sorry to my fans who have been waiting for us to hit the stage this evening at the Prudential Center," he declared at the time. "I was asked not to perform in order to give Ms. Baker her space and time to perform her show in its entirety."
Anita has already clarified that "tech/video wall/glitched" during the concert, causing a delay. However, it doesn't stop Babyface's fans from attacking and "threatening" her online.
Responding to the hate, Anita penned on June 12, "Good Morning, to... Kenny's Crazies, who continue to Harrass. She added in a separate tweet, "Kenny's Crazies are online Bullies. @Babyface Please call off, your fans. I have been Only Kind and Supportive, of You, as the Special Guest/Support, on My Tour."
"There is A White man, behind these Grown Black Men... harrassing Me & Gaslighting, My Fans. Because he Cant take over, this Tour... sO? He wants to Destroy it," the 65-year-old argued. "Kenny's Crazy Narcissis @Babyface call off, your Boys."
