The BET Awards, held last night on June 25th, 2023, delivered a memorable event filled with excitement and surprises. However, the standout moment of the evening was an intense altercation caught on camera between popular rapper Lil Uzi Vert and his girlfriend, JT, a prominent member of the iconic City Girls.
During the incident, JT was captured on video physically confronting Lil Uzi Vert while hurling insults at him, referring to him as a “groupie.” Disturbing footage clearly shows the female singer striking her boyfriend, adding to a history of similar incidents involving the couple.
The root cause of this heated brawl can be traced back to Lil Uzi Vert’s onstage comment about another female hip-hop artist, Ice Spice. Reports indicate that both rappers were even spotted sitting next to each other, which likely fueled the tension between Lil Uzi Vert and JT.
In his defense, Lil Uzi Vert maintained that his interaction with Ice Spice was harmless and that he had done nothing out of the ordinary. However, this explanation failed to appease JT, who stormed out of the venue in a fit of rage, leaving fans and onlookers stunned.
Speculation among fans suggests that the conflict arose due to Lil Uzi Vert including Ice Spice’s name in a recent song he performed at the 2023 BET Awards. The lyrics in question mention, “I got a nice wife… Wig came off twice. She got a little afro, she looks like Ice Spice,” which may have triggered JT’s anger and led to the altercation.
