Yaya Mayweather Addresses “Delusional” & “Entitled” Critiques

NBA YoungBoy kicked off his ‘MASA’ tour at the top of September. Since then, Yaya Mayweather has been the talk of headlines and social media reactions. From popping up at his shows to sneak dissing his marriage with Jazlyn Mychelle and even clapping back at Jazlyn’s mom. Through it all, fans have been giving Yaya the side eye. Taking to X (formerly Twitter), Mayweather shut down the narrative that she’s a “dumb delusional girl who lives a perfect life.” In total, she shared five tweets.

“I am very blessed yes I understand that but I’ve been through and I go through things just like anybody else, obviously my struggle looks different than the next person’s…and that’s ok,” Yaya Mayweather said in the first post. In the second post, she said, “I’m a young woman that’s growing yes I’ve made mistakes along away, but I’m striving to be better everyday. I apologize if over the years y’all haven’t perceived me in the best way.”

Her fourth post also addressed the “entitled spoiled little rich girl” critique. While she denied that’s who she is, she admitted to being “a little mean.” However, she said she’s trying “to be better,” especially for her son KJ.

“I want to right my wrongs while I’m still here and able to, and I want y’all to see the real me and not this f**ked up perception,” she wrote.

i’m not some stuck up entitled spoiled little rich girl… maybe a little mean lol, but i just want to be better especially for my child. i want to right my wrongs while i’m still here and able to, and i want y’all to see the real me and not this fucked up perception.

Yaya Says Floyd & Melissa Brim Raised Her “Right”

In her third tweet out of five, Yaya shared an apology for Floyd Mayweather and Melissa Brim. “I apologize to my family more specifically my father & mother if any of my actions over the years have embarrassed you or affected you in anyway,” she wrote. In her last tweet, she clarified that her parents aren’t always aligned with her actions.

“I have amazing parents, my parents raised me right. til this day my parents STILL parent me… and don’t get it misconstrued some of the choices I made don’t define how my parents raised me because believe me they don’t play a lot of sh*t… and they haven’t since I was a kid,” Yaya Mayweather wrote.

Neither Floyd nor Melissa have responded to Yaya’s tweets. However, both parents got a lil’ online attention last month after Yaya posted a photo of them. Social media popped off after a social media user threw some shade about Yaya and her mother’s loyalty to NBA YoungBoy and Floyd Mayweather, respectively.

Mayweather Briefly Mentions Lapattra Lashai Jacobs In Apology

In her first tweet mentioning her parents—the third overall—Yaya also named a woman she previously beefed with: Lapattra Lashai Jacobs.

“…And to anyone I may have hurt over the years I apologize, including Lapattra Jacobs… even though yes it was self defense I apologize,” Mayweather wrote.

According to NBC News, Yaya pled guilty in 2022 to “unlawfully, intentionally and unknowingly” hurting Jacobs with a knife. The incident happened in April 2020 while Jacobs was visiting NBA YoungBoy’s home. She and the rapper share a young child. After the incident, Jacobs underwent surgery for non-life-threatening injuries from the stabbing. Mayweather was arrested and released the same day after posting a $30,000 bond. In December 2022, she got a deferred adjudication of guilt and a six-year probation sentence. She avoided jail time, had to complete 40 hours of community service, and was banned from harassing or threatening Lapattra, per XXL.

In December 2020, Lapattra got a protective order against Yaya. Eventually, she also sued Yaya for physical pain, mental anguish, physical impairment, medical costs, loss of earnings, and disfigurement. It’s unclear how that civil case played out.
