2 Chainz Sued For $5 Million Over Viral #IsThisYoThot Video [WATCH]

In April of 2014, an embarrassing encounter between 2 Chainz and a female fan made its way to the 'net in the form of a video with the hashtag, #IsThisYoThot. Chainz is now being sued for $5 million following the viral incident.

According to TMZ, the woman in the video, Christine Chisholm, says she was invited backstage at a 2 Chainz show by one of his frequent collaborators, Cap-1. He apparently fell under a spell of amnesia once she arrived, which prompted endless heckling from the "No Lie" rapper.

"You ain't gonna catch nothing out here but a cold, baby. Put something on your back, baby," 2 Chainz joked. He also referred to Chisholm as a "THOT," an acronym for "that ho over there."

Chisholm claims that shortly after the video was posted and viewed some 10 million times, she was fired from her job at a barber shop because the manager believed the clip would attract negative publicity to the establishment.

According to the lawsuit, Chisholm also claims that being called a "ho" subjected her to harassment and abuse in public and has severely damaged her reputation.

However, Chisholm may have brought on some of the slander herself. Towards the end of the clip, Chainz informs the young hopeful that she entered into "blog territory" and that the encounter was being recorded. She went on to ask about her appearance and even offered up the handle attached to her Instagram account.

She later deleted the account, created a new one and then proceeded to put the ATL rapper on blast.

"What you did to me was not right you lanky lizard @hairweavekiller wait until my lawyers takes care of this how's that for a thot I mean thought!," she posted as a photo caption.

Apparently, she's made good on her word. Any thoughts? Chime in in the comment section below.
