‘Don’t Do it Tommie’: Bow Wow and Tommie Lee Partying Together Sparks Dating Rumors

A video of former “Love and Hip Hop: Atlanta” star Tommie Lee and Bow Wow partying on Instagram Live caused a whole bunch of hubbub among those who watched it.

In the clip, Lee is sporting a pair of gray sweatpants and a black midriff-exposing top. Bow Wow is directly in back of her and is wearing a black hoodie. Three other people can be seen in the video as well, and everyone is dancing to the music in what appears to be a bathroom.

But some noticed that Bow’s hands were around Lee at one point, and they also mentioned that she grabbed his hand and rubbed it.

There were also a lot of folks who said it seemed like the two were dating or possibly fooling around.

“Don’t do it Tommie 🤦🏾‍♀️” someone warned.

“IKYFL!!! How he get to be near Tommie?!?” wrote another Instagram user.

“lil bow wow was tryna slide,” a third person stated.

“They would be cute together tho🤷🏽‍♀️😩” wrote a fourth.

And that wasn’t the only video the pair was seen partying in, because Bow posted another video on IG Live that showed him and Lee whooping it up in a nightclub.

But Lee seemed to shoot down the dating rumors Monday during a separate Instagram Live post.

“Somebody can’t even have fun without f–king or dating,” she stated. “Can anyone have fun anymore? Is that allowed? Is that cool?”

One of the last times the former “Fresh Azimiz” rapper made headlines was when he got dragged for saying during a performance he slept with Ciara before others.

And after that, Bow posted a still photo of himself and Tyra Banks kissing in 2013 when she stopped by “106 & Park,” which he formerly co-hosted. Afterward, people thought his post was a response to his ex Erica Mena being engaged to Safaree Samuels and seemingly being happy.

Independent journalism doesn't fund itself.

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.

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.
