Saweetie and Quavo were trending Twitter topics earlier this week after TMZ leaked elevator surveillance footage of the former couple engaged in an altercation. Now, the Icy Girl is speaking out. In an exclusive statement to The Shade Room, Saweetie confirmed the fight happened last year and was one of many reasons she decided to pull the plug on their two-year relationship last month.
“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,” she said. “I kindly ask that everyone respect my privacy during this time.”
In the now viral clip, Saweetie and Quavo appear to be wrestling over an orange Call of Duty case outside the elevator doors of a North Hollywood apartment. As the struggle ensues, he shoves her inside and she falls to the ground. The Migos rapper then gains control of the orange case, presses a button and casually glances down at her as she stays seated. Saweetie eventually gets up with the help of a railing and limps off the elevator into the hallway.
The incident has caused division on social media, with some saying Saweetie was the aggressor while others assuming Quavo was to blame for being too rough with her. Whatever the case, the Los Angeles Police Department is reportedly looking into the matter.
Quavo & Saweetie Elevator Altercation Reportedly Under Investigation By LAPD
Saweetie and Quavo started dating in September 2018 after he hopped into her DMs with a snowflake emoji and made their public debut during New York Fashion Week. Although they were often cited as “relationship goals,” fans became suspicious when the couple unfollowed each other on social media in March.
Once Twitter blew up with breakup rumors, the Warner Music Group artist confirmed the split on Twitter, writing, “I’m single. I’ve endured too much betrayal and hurt behind the scenes for a false narrative to be circulating that degrades my character. Presents don’t band aid scars and the love isn’t real when the intimacy is given to other women.”
We must balanced in our approach when we’re dealing with such situations. It’s easy to see from the clip that she was as aggressive towards him as he was towards her. It can also clearly be seen that she also swung and struck him, a fact that makes both of them as tainted as each other. Hitting a woman is inexcusable as striking a man of we want to be fair. At the end of the clip, it can be seen that the subject of the fight appears to be suitcase and not so much the people. Let’s save the pity parties, it’s not worth being in anybody’s corner in this situation.
I mean in the full clip she clearly throws a closed fist punch directed towards quavos face. She was definitely more aggressive, once quavos secured his stuff, he didn’t touch her.
People forget celebrities ,rappers ,actors ect are people . Quavo didn’t do anything , she didn’t do anything but throw a tantrum , y’all acting like this was a powerful scene of domestic violence in a Tyler perry movie or something . This is average compared to anything else . He didn’t punch her, he didn’t put his hands on her. But y’all let women play the victim because they bitter and exaggerate. When it’s real women fighting for there life every day . Leave it alone ,
Black poverty looking at this like it’s nothing
Black suburban looking at this like it’s Riri and breezy
White American looking at it as domestic abuse and don’t give care anyway
