‘Unbothered!’: Reginae Carter Receives Praise for Not ‘Feeding Into’ YFN Lucci’s Beef With Young Thug

It looks like “T.I. & Tiny: Friends & Family Hustle” star Reginae Carter is staying fly and steering clear of drama.

The 20-year-old’s name was recently brought up during an ongoing feud between her supposed ex-boyfriend, rapper YFN Lucci and his foe, rapper Young Thug. Carter has yet to address the drama and instead seems to be living her best life.

The young actress took to Instagram Tuesday evening and shared a fashion photo of herself, glammed up from head to toe. She wore a sheer black bodysuit with high-waist khaki joggers and black and white patent leather heels. She jazzed her look up with a black satchel plastered with the words “Ready to Wear,” her honey blond tresses and a evening wear makeup look.

She captioned her post “Brown sugar mixed with a little honey 🍯” and received over 90,000 likes from a few of her four million followers.

Several of them not only gawked over Carter’s look, they also commended her for seemingly rising above her ex-boyfriend’s drama.

“Okay Nae!! Now that’s a F–k Lucci pose! You look so beautiful sis 😍”

“Absolutely gorgeous brown sugar 🔥 well played Queen you look unbothered af by the drama.”

“I love how she keeping it cute and classy ❤️ and that hair is everything. So happy you left in time ..No negativity vibes “

“Love you for not entertaining that Lucci bulls–t. You look beautiful 😘”

The “Heartless” rapper and Young Thug carried on their existing beef with each other after Lucci went on Atlanta’s V-103 radio this week and suggested yet again that he slept with Thug’s longtime girlfriend Jerrika Karlae.

“I was in the bed with her a couple times,” he said. “We ain’t gonna talk on that though.”

Karlae claimed that Lucci was lying in a series of tweets earlier this week and even dragged Carter into the mix, saying that she was “gone get at” his “girl” since he apparently lied about their relations. She also said Lucci should be ashamed for trying to claim her when he has a whole girlfriend.

Carter seemingly called it quits with off-and-on boyfriend YFN Lucci, 28, after the controversial cucumber-themed party thrown by him, Alexis Skyy and Trouble in Atlanta on August 4.

“I went to the party to spy on ray (Lucci),” she tweeted. “Females, don’t act like you never did it. But when I heard about the cucumber activities, I left.”

She continued, “Tbh, I’ve made myself look like a fool for this man and I apologize for allowing you guys to see it. … I’m young and still learning. Unfortunately, every move I make is publicized. I can’t control it. Imma try to be more private for now on. … I was loosing myself but baby I promise imma FIND ME again.”

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

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 in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones 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.
