(AllHipHop News) Trina became a hot topic this week after footage of the rapper yelling in Walmart went viral. In the clip, the Love & Hip Hop: Miami cast member was reportedly reacting to being called a “n*gger” by a white customer.
TMZ caught up with Trina to get her side of the story. According to The One album creator, she never bumped into the woman. The 40-year-old Floridian claimed she was actually trying to be nice to the aggressor.
“This lady was way across in the kid’s section, and she was crying. I just looked over and was like, ‘Oh, hi. Are you okay?'” recalled Trina. “She looked up like a demon – demonic, very evil, satanic witch. She was like, ‘Get away from me, you n*gger b*tch.'”

Harvey Levin asked Trina if she believed the incident was directly related to the racial political climate in America today. The rapstress affectionately known as Da Baddest B*tch answered, “Probably. I don’t know. But I’m gonna tell you this, this is not the 1800s, this is not slavery days. In 2020, you will get your ass whopped. So stop trying it.”
Previously, Trina seemed to be more accepting of non-Black people using the word “n*gga” which is viewed by some as a term of endearment. During a Love & Hip Hop: Miami reunion show, she stated, “Everybody says n*gga – White, Black. I’ve been to Hong Kong and they say n*gga. I was surprised, but they do. That’s just what it is, so you can’t tell people what to say. Especially, in the culture that we do when it comes to music.”
