Ayanna Jackson, the woman who 25 years ago accused Tupac of rape, is speaking out on camera for the first time about about the incident that landed the rapper behind bars.

Jackson said that she was 18 or 19 when she met Tupac at Nell’s Nightclub in New York City.

“I was in the club. I was having some champagne and he walked up behind me. I had some jeans on that night. And he placed his hands into the back pockets of my jeans … We progressed out of the VIP into the night club to dance,” she told VladTV.

Jackson said that Tupac tried to get her to perform oral sex on him on the dance floor. Although she refused, they did go back to a hotel room and had consensual sex.

The two continued to meet up before, on Nov. 18, 1993, he invited her to a hotel room at the Parker Meridien.

The night of the alleged rape

Jackson recalled leaving a group of his friends behind to go a bedroom where he asked her for a massage. As she straddled him, he pulled her into a kiss, at which point his friends arrived and started to comment on her body.

When Jackson tried to turn around, she claimed that Tupac grabbed her hair to keep her face close to his.

“Because he has his hand in my braids, I can’t physically move around,” she recalled.

That’s when Tupac allegedly told her, “These are my boys. I like you so much, I decided to share you with them.”

Jackson recalled how she tried to get away and told them “no,” but Tupac and three of his friends ripped her dress off and raped her.

After Jackson accused Tupac of rape, he was convicted of first-degree sexual abuse and served nine months out of a four-and-a-half-year sentence.

Tupac continued to maintain his innocence until the day he died.
