Cousins!
Teyana Taylor is making headlines this week as she mashes up numerous stages within her Last Rose Petal tour however the one headline she all the way was NOT here for was one issued by the good folks of TMZ!
Earlier this week TMZ caught up with Teyana in the Los Angeles International Airport where they mentioned her viral moment of pausing her performance to help a fan in need within comparison to Travis Scott ‘s 2021 AstroWorld festival “ tragedies.
“I’ve always been that way,” she said within the clip. “There are plenty videos of me stopping my show to help my fans. There’s video of [Travis Scott] stopping the show. It’s just people are choosing whatever video they’re choosing to make it look like he’s not.”
Teyana continues, “I don’t get in the middle of all that stuff. At the end of the day, I seen a video of him stopping the show. I think it’s very important for all artists to take precautions to make sure. But also staffing, as well. It’s not just the artist. With Travis, he has large crowds, you know what I’m saying? We can’t expect him to see every single person.”

Always MISLEADING headlines”
She continued, “Most importantly I mind my business. ALWAYS. It’s not my job to judge something I don’t have the full details on. This whole situation is a very sad and unfortunate, and my heart and prayers go out to ALL of the parties involved. But stop being fuckin mess TMZ. Messy asses.”
