Tokyo Vanity is truly becoming a fan favorite on “Love and Hip Hop Atlanta” and social media users commended her even more for standing her ground with her ex-boyfriend Tabius Tate.

Tate and Vanity broke up earlier during the season after the New Orleans native found out her boyfriend was still spending time and communicating with his ex-girlfriend. She also discovered that he and Jamaican artist Spice were dating soon after they broke up which led to a big blow up between Tokyo and the Dance-hall musician.

Vanity’s ex-boyfriend tried to make his way back in her life and paid a visit to the star with flowers in his hand at a body positive event where she spoke. There was one problem, Tate was accompanied by Keely Love who got into a physical altercation with Vanity and her friend Sierra Gates at the “Timeless” artist’s listening party.

As soon as Vanity’s ex-boyfriend walked into her dressing room, the star instantly had her guard up. “I don’t like her and don’t bring that h*e around me,” she told her ex-boyfriend. “So you can do what you gone do.”

Tate commented on the fact he bought her flowers and Vanity replied, “I don’t care about none of this… Tabius bye.”

The aspiring left his ex-girlfriend’s dressing room after she told him that it was “over with”, but not before he threw a water bottle down by her. Vanity instantly reacted and flung her bouquet of flowers at Tate’s back.

Fans gave kudos to Vanity for staying strong and not giving into the temptation of her ex-boyfriend.

“She knows her worth and won’t settle for less,” one fan said.

“Yaaaass! Finally a strong Black woman,” one viewer wrote.

“Tokyo the youngest one but got the MOST common sense on the show , common sense aint common no more,” another fan said.

Vanity and Tate are no longer together and she seems to be happy with her new boyfriend Ferrari, who she’s be flaunting all over her Instagram.

Independent journalism still matters.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
