Is Bernice Burgos Trying to Tempt T.I. with Recent Video?

Urban model Bernice Burgos posted a series of salacious pictures and fans wondered if she was trying to lure rapper T.I. back in.

The “Bold-Beautiful” owner shared a photo of herself sporting a two-piece pajama set from her collection revealing quite a bit of skin. She posed for a selfie in front of the mirror while showing off her toned abs and giving fans “life.” She took to her social media and wrote, “I woke up like this.. lol 🍫 Love my mirror from @samira_furniture • pajamas: @shopboldandbeautiful.”

Many of Burgos’ fans gushed over the model’s “sexy” photo and deemed her as “body” goals.

“You work hard for who you are..stay true to yourself beautiful.. And follow your heart,” one person wrote.

“You literally have a perfect body,” another added.

However, others questioned if the “hot” picture was to send a message to the “Whatever You Like” rapper.

The two were reportedly dating in 2017 after the pair was seen in several towns together hanging out. A source also confirmed to Bossip that the two were indeed in a relationship. The person said, “It was only a matter of time because she comes down here so much.”

The Internet accused the star of being a “homewrecker” and she addressed the rumors.

“That home had BEEN broken,” she wrote. “And I’ve NEVER dealt with a married man in my life… Technically when a person files for divorce it’s saying they’re moving on with their lives & their marriage has failed.”

Burgos and T.I.’s wife Tiny Harris were also feuding online in March 2017. Tiny referred to the model as a “pass around b*tch” and called her a “slick fan.” The 38-year-old clapped back at the rapper’s wife by recording a video of she and friend listening to an Xscape song and laughing. She noted that she and T.I. were only friends.

However, despite a slew of drama, T.I.and Burgos still follow one another on Instagram.

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.
