As Alsina was being dragged through the wringer by certain users, others pointed out that female singers such as Janet Jackson, Beyoncé, Rihanna, Ciara, and Nicki Minaj are not chastised when they perform sexual acts on male concert goers.
So is this wrong too? August Alsina was wrong but Ciara good to go huh? pic.twitter.com/MQWriREhSh

Janet Jackson can do it to men, August Alsina can do it to women. Serenading is all it is. & fans have the option to NOT go on stage.

Think real hard if male R&B stars are predatory when taking fans on stage but female stars e.g. Janet & Beyonce are heroes. #AugustAlsina

Rihanna would call a man on stage give him a lap dance, touch his dick and it wouldn't be a problem…….. Unlucky August Alsina
