‘Haters Will Say She Didn’t Eat But She ATE Hunny!!!’: Toya Johnson Celebrates Her Daughter ‘Lil Baddie’ Reginae Carter’s Beauty

Toya Johnson is hands down her daughter Reginae Carter‘s number-one fan. 

On Monday, Nov. 30, the “T.I. & Tiny: Friends & Family Hustle” star took to her Instagram page to share a gallery of photos featuring the now 22 year old as she gushed over her beauty and creativity in honor of Reginaeโ€™s recent birthday. 

Throughout the various snaps, the daughter of rapper Lil Wayne rocked several 2000s- inspired fashions, including a bedazzled army fatigue cropped jacket and matching pants. Underneath, the reality star showed off her toned tummy while looking fly in a camouflage bra and headband. She finished her look with a fresh pair of Timberlands and yellow-tinted shades, large iced-out hoop earrings and a diamond necklace.

In her second look, Reginae looked stunning in a three-piece denim Dior print vest and shorts with a matching bra. And for her final look, the actress sported a cami top and skirt, which featured her name and the New Orleans symbol spray painted in gold and blue. 

Momma Toya captioned the beautiful tribute, “Shorty a lil’ baddie.๐Ÿ˜ #naeday.” She added, “@therealnoigjeremy did what needed to be done! Killed every look!๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ.” The post received over 84,000 likes from fans who also joined in on the praise.

One user wrote, “She look THE F-CK GOODTโ€ผ๏ธ gone nae ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜ but lord knows I’m not ready for my daughter to grow up and be a baddie ๐Ÿ˜ฉ๐Ÿ˜‚.” Another fan commented, “Haters will say she didn’t eat but she ATE hunny!!!!!! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’œ Issa look!”

A third person gave Toya some credit as well, writing, “Ok๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜… Lil Toya mom has done well witcha lil lady.” “Yea she was looking ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ especially that army fatigue ๐Ÿ˜,” a fourth commented. 

As previously mentioned, the photos came on the heels of the former “Growing up Hip Hop” star throwing a massive 90s/2000s birthday bash on Sunday, Nov. 29, at Republic Lounge in Atlanta. Lil Wayne took center stage to perform, and there were also performances from 2Chainz and Juvenile.

Although partygoers appeared to be having a good time in the clips floating around the internet, Reginae received plenty of backlash for hosting such a huge event during the middle of a pandemic. As one Twitter put it, “So nobody calling Reginae Carter out for that COVID fest she had last night for her birthday?”

The reality star has yet to address the criticism. 

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual โ€” 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.
