Tiny and T.I. Won’t Let Past Cheating Scandal Stop Their Hustle

T.I. and Tiny Harris’ marriage is stronger than ever it seems as the Xscape singer continues to support her man in his career.

On Wednesday night, Harris posted a glimpse of T.I.’s part on Dave Chappelle’s final show at the Tabernacle in Atlanta. Chappelle was co-headlining a series of six shows with fellow Comedy Central alum Jon Stewart, where the comics did 45-minute sets.

During Chappelle’s bit on Aug. 15, Tip walked out on stage and teased the comedian about his hit series, “Chappelle’s Show.”

“We can’t thank you enough … aye, man, Ima tell you what, as a friend, I can say things that they probably don’t but get the chance to say but bring the f—ing ‘Dave Chapelle Show’ back!” Tip says to audible cheers from the crowd.

The duo continued to celebrate through the night, celebrating the 15th year anniversary of Tip’s second studio album “Trap Muzik,” which dropped on Aug. 15, 2003.

“Atlanta, make some noise for T.I.,” Chappelle said in a clip on Instagram. “This n—a’s not just a job, he’s an invention, he’s a lifestyle His trap music. You city, your sports, Black culture all over the world. Atlanta, I’m very proud of you.”

And it seems Tip’s bride has been very supportive of not just the bromance but her man’s career in general.

Her taping Tip’s bit during the stand-up routine is just the latest time that Harris has been there to back up Tip’s job moments.

She happily accompanied him to a local screening of his BET reality show “The Grand Hustle” and even promoted the show on her own Instagram account.

The promo came even amid criticism from fans who took aim at Harris for sticking by Tip after he was caught cheating on her with  Greenleaf actress Asia’h Epperson.

“🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️Whew Chile..the shit celebrity wives deal with just for money smh.”

“@majorgirl when you going to love yourself and leave your cheating ass husband alone you look a fool if eyes changing and a new baby won’t change then nothing will boo.”

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.
