R&B singer Keri Hilson is going viral, after she told her fans that she’s looking to date a “dangerous” man. Media Take Out learned that Keri took to Twitter and explained that she “likes to feel that [her] man is dangerous when necessary.”
Keri continued, adding that being with a “dangerous: man gives her a “strong sense of protection.”
She ended saying that although her man is dangerous, she “prays that he never needs to exercise it.”

Folks all cross social media are blasting Keri, complaining that Keri is promoting the wrong type of behavior. Black Twitter collectively argued that crime is rampant in Black communities, and the last thing it needs are more “dangerous” men in our communities.
So far Keri has not responded the the criticism, Media Take Out has learned.
