‘What Is This?’: Reginae Carter’s Twerk Session Goes Left When Fans Roast Her Moves

Not every celebrity’s’ booty-poppin’ skills are up to par and Reginae Carter may be one of them, according to fans.

The 21-year-old daughter of rapper Lil Wayne tried to show off her twerking skills this week on the ‘Gram, but it seemingly backfired on her. An Instagram fan page posted a video of Carter enjoying a night out with her inner circle seemingly at a lounge.

The young actress made her way to the dance floor and began bouncing her backside up and down. She then busted into a twerk before standing up and slapping away the camera. Her mother Toya Johnson is seemingly heard in the background cheering on her daughter and yelling, “Aye” several times.

Although Johnson seemed impressed by her daughter’s gyrating skills, it appeared social media users were not.

“What is this?” one fan wrote. “Lol , your not even moving though 🤔. Smh”

Another said, ” Umm 😂 Not everybody can twerk in jeans. Lmao. Oh no ma’am 😂”

“That Jump took me out 😩 she look like she was running off on the plug 🔌 🤣 this ain’t it”

“She can’t thrown nun with them pants 👖 she need some looser so her booty can breathe”

Carter’s post comes a few days after she was spotted on Instagram posing up a storm in her yellow Savage x Fenty lingerie. She posed seductively while in the kitchen with all of her assets showing and captioned the post, “Breakfast in bed.”

The “T.I. & Tiny: Friends & Family Hustle” star drew up more than 195,000 likes and a mass of comments.

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.
