‘Love and Hip Hop Atlanta’ Stars Spice and Tokyo Nearly Come to Blows After Failing to Make Peace

While it seemed tensions had been eased between Spice and Tokyo Vanity on last week’s “Love and Hip Hop Atlanta,” all notions of friendliness were completely thrown out the window when they went to a dude ranch.

For the last few episodes, Tokyo and Spice have been beefing since Tokyo found out her boyfriend, Tabius Tate, had been messing around with Spice. The “That’s My Best Friend” performer dumped Tate in the last episode — where she swung a handbag at Spice when she was taunted about her weight — and wound up sparring with her again when they Atlanta-based crew went to Texas.

“I don’t have no problem with her but the b—- won’t…”

Tokyo can’t finish her sentence before Spice stands up and tosses her plate on her frienemy’s head. It was “b—-” that triggered the blow-up.

The two attempt to go after one another but security subdues the two of them as BK Brasco rushes to try to calm Toyko down.

But the brawl between Tokyo and Spice tipped off another battle between Estelita and Sierra when the former accused the latter of playing both sides of the friendship coin between Tokyo and Spice.

Still, many viewers were focused on the first fight and sounded off on Twitter before the duo talked things out and agreed to end their beef.

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.
