‘A True Character’: Toya Johnson Shares Video of Daughter Reign’s ‘Mood’ and Fans Feel Her Vibe

TikTok may have a new rising star! Toya Johnson‘s youngest daughter Reign Rushing is tapping in to one of the platform’s latest dance challenges and bringing joy to fans’ timelines with her “Monday mood.”

Johnson caught her toddler vibing out to the kid-friendly “Tap In” TikTok remix featuring Saweetie and “Phineas and Ferb” character Dr Doofenshmirtz and baby girl was really feeling herself. “Monday Mood! @reign_beaux is always a mood.🤣🤣,” Johnson captioned the funny video, which gained more than 240,000 likes.

In the post, Reign confidently smiles and laughs as she puts her own stank on some dance moves, while dressed in blue jeans, a white T-shirt, and a big pink bow atop her ponytail. Reginae Carter also got a kick out of her adorable little sister’s moves, dropping five crying laughing emojis in the comments.

The not-so-terrible-two-year-old Reign brought her big personality along to cheer on her Aunt Tiny during the recent Falcons v. Saints NFL game when Tiny and her fellow Xscape members kicked things off by singing the National Anthem. “Got a chance to see my lil Reigny  @reign_beaux at the game today!! Gotta love this big personality 👑😍🥰,” Tiny captured the sweet picture of the two of them.

Fans flocked to Toya’s comments to let the “T.I. & Tiny: Friends & Family Hustle” cast member know how much they enjoy continuing to watch Reign’s infectious personality grow right before their eyes.

“😂😂😂😂😭😭 Reign is the Lit Princess😍😍,” declared a follower.

“🤣🤣🤣🤣 A true character. I love her 🥰🥰🥰,” a second stated.

“Reign needs her own show lol I just love her 😂😍,” agreed a third.

“This lil girl trips me out! So much personality!” exclaimed a fourth fan.

“Watching her brings me so much joy😂❤️,” wrote a fifth.

Reign Rushing is the only child for Toya and her fiancé Robert “Red” Rushing, and also Rushing’s first. Reginae, 22, is Johnson’s daughter from her previous marriage to rapper Lil Wayne.

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.
