<h3 style="text-align: center;">Cristina Mackey Claps Back</h3>
<p>On Wednesday, December 13, Mackey took to her Instagram feed to share a video with fans. In the clip, Mackey addressed the recent comments left under her photos.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I can tell by a lot of the comments on my page that y&#8217;all have never had a man keep you in your power,&#8221; Mackey told viewers. &#8220;Y&#8217;all have never had a man give you reassurance you didn&#8217;t even know you needed. Y&#8217;all don&#8217;t got too much consistency going on.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Mackey explained that her critics &#8220;don&#8217;t like to see nobody winning&#8221; and &#8220;don&#8217;t like to see nobody happy.&#8221;</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;It&#8217;s something about a man that can keep you in your power, that&#8217;ll make you want to ride until the wheels fall off,&#8221; Mackey continued, seemingly referring to Ross. &#8220;What — it&#8217;s no way I care about what you think&#8230; couldn&#8217;t be true.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>She then explained that &#8220;there&#8217;s something about a man who corrects you when you&#8217;re wrong&#8221; that &#8220;makes you want to ride&#8221; for them.</p>
