JT Argues Lil Uzi Vert's Style Wouldn't Be Criticized If They Were White

JT stands beside her partner, Lil Uzi Vert, especially in the face of online trolling.

On Friday (Feb. 7), the former City Girls member reacted viciously to some X, formerly known as Twitter, users for shaming the Eternal Atake 2 rapper's new style. This week, Uzi attended a Marc Jacobs presentation in New York City, where they debuted a spiky hairstyle with goth bangs, coordinating with their multiple facial piercings.

Clearly, JT noticed the backlash, as the City Cinderella rapper tweeted, "If Uzi was white nothing he do would bother yall miserable ass n****s!"

When one person responded that Uzi would be doing "white people stuff," JT wrote, "What's white ppl stuff? Lazy fat bitch? Do you know your own history stfu pigeon!"

When another user commented that Uzi straightens their hair, wears piercings, and alleged that the rapper participates in "goth devil worshiping shit," JT had even more smoke. "I ain't ask no n***a who smoke blunts down to it burns his black ass lips a fuck thing!" she wrote.

Last June, JT detailed how Uzi, who she's reportedly dated since 2019, influenced her fashion sense. "When me and my boyfriend first got like really official, I remember him putting me in a whole outfit and I was going the fuck off on him like, 'Boy, I look like Batman and all type of shit. If you don't take this shit off,'" she explained around the 15:30-minute mark of the video below.

"And I remember being on a plane ride just quiet the whole time. I'm really in somebody's backyard in a full runway outfit. He's like, 'This is how you're gonna be dressed everyday.' And, I'm like, 'Boy, there's a time and a place.'"
