Quavo Pushes Saweetie in Leaked Elevator Video From 2020

Migos rapper Quavo can be seen pushing his former girlfriend Saweetie in viral leaked footage from an elevator security camera. The video, obtained by TMZ , is from an apartment complex in North Hollywood where Saweetie was reportedly renting last year. It shows the " Best Friend " rapper, legal name Diamonté Harper, swinging at Quavo, legal name Quavious Marshall, as she tries to remove luggage from the elevator. Quavo then pushes her into the elevator and uses his body to prevent her from exiting with the luggage until she ends up on the ground, just out of frame. Quavo stays in the elevator, glancing at her. When the door opens, he gets out, and Saweetie slowly follows, limping. The incident allegedly took place in 2020, TMZ confirmed with sources on both sides.

Update, Thursday, April 1, at 3:47 p.m.: Saweetie has broken her silence on the tape, issuing a statement to TMZ. She said, "This unfortunate incident happened a year ago, while we have reconciled since then and moved past this particular disagreement, there were simply too many other hurdles to overcome in our relationship and we have both since moved on." Quavo has yet to publicly address the tape.

She’s well on her way to becoming the next big female breakout star, and we’re so proud to be able to continue to support her.”

Saweetie added: “Ryan and the whole Warner Chappell team have become family over the years. It’s amazing to look back at everything we’ve accomplished together, and I’m excited for this next chapter.”

Saweetie, Our April Cover Star, Has Some Expensive Taste $$$

In today's episode, we hit Saweetie with all things glam. She had to pick out the pricier versions of perfume, fake lashes, and lip gloss. At one point we even had the rapper distinguish which gumball brand seemed more expensive, and rather than chewing them, she tried to use their soundwaves to identify the cheap imitation. You'll have to watch to see how that went.

June is trying all the peanut butter she could get her hands on, including everything from your basic jars to $18 splurges to specialty flavors and an impostor.

Although production on the second season isn't set to begin until this spring , the British news source pretended this was a ploy to shock...

See those three sad slices of ham sitting in the fridge? Believe it or not, they're tonight's amazing dinner. From soups to sandwiches to pasta, here are 30 leftover ham recipes you absolutely need to...

Aside from the oh-so-memorable style, the decade also introduced us to classics like The Breakfast Club, Back to the Future and Dirty Dancing. Here's a glimpse at what some of the most popular '80s celebs are working on today.

Icy Girl Saweetie Opens Up About Almost Getting Jailed At A Younger Age

To add gasoline to the burning building, the duo were caught on camera in an elevator, having a physical altercation, which thankfully, led to no serious injuries. 

It's true, the 27-year-old recently joined the music business, but no one's denying that she came with a lot of different touches to music as a whole. 

She began her career from social media and managed to amass about 11 million followers. Before she hit the millions of followings, fans were attracted to the singer's popular car raps. 

In no time, she released two EPs and thought, why not take things a lot more further? Yes she did. Presently, she has 20 incredible singles (including two promotional singles), some of which became TikTok trends and is working on her first album.

Many singers and rappers in the industry have their stories to tell, about how they were caught up in bad situations and found a way to break away from it. 

She was asked about her motivation for success and she explained to Hilton that growing up was hard for her because she didn't have the things she wanted. 

She continued that this continuous lack helped to push her more, so she could do more for herself. 

Furthermore, Saweetie said that pushing herself beyond limits made her do some illegal things, like steal clothes to wear. She said that she was very good at it, but one day, a friend of hers was caught in the act and that implicated her too. 

The singer went on to say that she was s good at it, that she shoplifted from expensive stores such as Victoria's Secret , Forever 21 , Urban Outfitters and Hot Topic.
