Tamar Braxton Calls Out Sister Toni Braxton for Doing What Sisters Do and Fans Are in Stitches

Tamar Braxton has a bone to pick with her sister Toni Braxton. The newly boo’d up singer called out her older sister on Instagram Wednesday, Aug. 1 after she caught the “Sex and Cigarettes” singer wearing a set of her pajamas.

“She’s so BUSTED in MY pajamas that I have been looking for 🙄 @tonibraxton #pjthief,” Tamar wrote in the caption of a dolled up Toni in her sleepwear.

Fans quickly began chiming in on the typical sibling incident of taking one another’s clothes without the other’s permission.

“😂😂❤Sister Love 😍.”

“@tamarbraxton definitely something I would have [done]. Lol.”

“@theegoogoo facts, my sisters & I do it to each other every time.”

“@tamarbraxton 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 she hit you with the barter system.”

“😂😂😂😂😂!! My son used to do this with his brother’s clothes… Take pictures with them on…”

However, the youngest Braxton sister didn’t need to fret for long. Toni posted on Instagram a day later that she had returned  Tamar’s pink jammies, trading them in for a robe as she waited on set on her new Christmas movie she’s filming for Lifetime.

“I gave @tamarbraxton her pajamas back, so now I’m on set in my robe 💃🏽,” she wrote in the caption of a photo from the Vancouver shooting location.

The Braxton siblings — which includes sisters  TowandaTraci and Trina — are no strangers to squabbling on public platforms. The vocalists have had their fair share of that on their WEtv reality series, “Braxton Family Values.”

Still, the sisters have had some bonding during the latest season of the show.

“[This season] made me and my sisters a little bit closer,” Traci told The Grio in March. “Closer than what we normally are. We share each other’s pain and hurt. You may not see it on the air, but off the air, we would try to hug on each other besides ignoring each other. And right now you know, everybody don’t wanna hug.”

Still independent.

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.
