Once again, gossip queen Latosha “Tasha K” Kebe is being sued over salacious claims she’s made about celebrities. This time, Soulja Boy is coming for her coins...but Tasha K isn’t the only defendant.
The “Crank That” rapper is also suing William The Baddest, a social media personality who appeared on the “Unwine With Tasha K” podcast and claimed that he was in a homosexual romantic relationship with Soulja, according to TMZ.
When the podcast was originally released in May, the clip of William explaining their alleged relationship in descriptive detail went viral. Soulja Boy allegedly sent the pair a retraction letter at the time and vehemently denied the claims, according to the lawsuit.
That didn’t work, as William later tattooed Soulja’s name on his face in purple ink.
Soulja, whose real name is DeAndre Way, is suing the pair for defamation, sexual harassment, violation of right to privacy, and intentional infliction of emotional distress. The “Kiss Me Thru The Phone” artist is seeking $16 million in damages, per the report from TMZ.
This marks yet another high-profile celebrity lawsuit against Tasha K. In November, disgraced R&B singer R. Kelly filed a lawsuit against Tasha, claiming that an agent illegally sold private prison records with the gossip blogger, including phone call recordings with his legal team and girlfriend.
Tasha’s most infamous legal battle was with Cardi B, who won a libel suit against the blogger after she posted a number of videos on her YouTube and social media claiming that the “Bodak Yellow” rapper contracted herpes and abused drugs.
Cardi was awarded a $4 million defamation verdict, over which Tasha apologized when a federal appeals court upheld the verdict last March. She filed for bankruptcy to avoid paying Cardi the full amount she was owed.
