Kimbella And Chrissy Brawl Forces Glass Ban On Love & Hip Hop Set

UPDATE-Love & Hip Hop stars Kimbella Vanderhee and Chrissy Lampkin have forced VH1 to enforce a glass ban on set. Kimbella, rapper Juelz Santana’s girlfriend and Chrissy, rapper Jim Jones’ fiance were scrapping on the floor of a luxury suite hotel room in New York City in the premiere episode of Love and Hip Hop!! If you saw the trailer you know that is one of many fights to come. According to TMZ a ban on glass and metal silverware has been enforced.

Here’s what happened:

Kimbella revealed to Emily Bustamante that she dated her ex rapper Fabolous three years ago. Little did Kimbella know, Emily was pregnant with Fab’s child three years ago. In a failed attempt to defend her friend Chrissy attacked Kimbella.

Kimbella has been defending her decision on the timing and place of revealing the news. Chrissy on the other hand recanted her decision to fight, acknowledging that it wasn’t the best way to handle the situation.

On one of her many promotional stops she told MTV News that she felt Emily was amongst family and may receive the news better. Kimbella also presumed Emily would be open to the news since she was happily moving on from Fabolous. Watch the clip below:

Kimbella also chatted with Charlamagne and Angele Yee of the Breakfast Club. Charlamagne implied Kimbella should have expected some backlash for her “tacky and classless move” but Kimbella stood her ground insisting that Chrissy had no grounds to hit her. This clip is a little longer than MTV’s – check it out.

What do you think of Kimbella and Chrissy’s fight – was it warranted?

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.
