Teairra Mari faced legal and financial troubles, including a lawsuit with 50 Cent over a revenge porn case.
Teairra Mari, an R&B singer and actress known for her appearance on the reality show “Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood,” has had a tumultuous period in recent years. In 2018, she took legal action against rapper 50 Cent and her ex-boyfriend, Akbar Abdul-Ahad, accusing them of engaging in a plan to sexually objectify, threaten, intimidate, humiliate and degrade her. This included the alleged sharing of explicit images and videos of her on social media without her consent, which is often referred to as revenge porn.
Mari’s lawsuit against 50 Cent was dismissed by a judge, who ruled that 50 Cent did not have a motive to harm her and that he merely reposted content that was already published. As a result, she was ordered to pay 50 Cent’s legal fees, which amounted to over $30,000. The legal battle continued with 50 Cent demanding the payment through various public and legal channels, which added to Mari’s financial burdens.
Aside from her legal issues, Teairra Mari has struggled with personal challenges, including dealing with alcohol abuse, which was documented on “Love & Hip Hop.” Her career has seen ups and downs, with her music releases receiving mixed responses and her public image being affected by her personal and legal problems. Despite these setbacks, Mari has continued to work on her music and acting, attempting to move past the controversies and re-establish her career in the entertainment industry.
