Morgan continued: “To be clear, on the specific allegation - have you ever used anal beads while playing chess?”
The 20-year-old replied: "Well, your curiosity is a bit concerning, you know - maybe you’re personally interested, but I can tell you, no.
I don’t know about you but when I appear in a very serious interview and talk about the multimillion dollar damage an unfounded allegations has done to my career, I really want to make sure that I include some weird kink shaming right there in my defense. That will surely make me seem like a serious person that sponsors can trust.
I think it was rather commenting on the interviewer’s inappropriate intrusiveness into an intimate topic rather than kinkshaming. Understandable that Niemann got defensive there, IMO.
It’s literally the allegation.
How do you interview without asking about the allegation?
It’s the meme allegation, the real allegation is just cheating without any butt stuff.
