A simmering feud between Tamar Braxton and social media commentator Funky Dineva has exploded into public view, centering on allegations about the singer’s mysterious mouth injury and her rumored connection to reality star Mendeecees Harris.

The controversy reached a boiling point Monday when Funky Dineva addressed Braxton during a YouTube livestream that quickly went viral. The 15-minute segment, titled “Tamar Braxtron, Mendeecees, and the missing teeth,” directly challenged the narrative Braxton shared during her recent interview with media personality Lore’l.

Conflicting stories emerge

During her conversation with Lore’l, Braxton maintained that she still doesn’t know what happened the night she sustained her mouth injury. She mentioned throwing a party for a former friend that evening but offered few details about what actually transpired.

That vague account prompted Funky Dineva to step forward, revealing that he was the friend Braxton referenced. But according to him, the evening wasn’t about him at all. He claimed the night began at Ruth’s Chris Steak House, where he met Braxton expecting a celebration. Instead, Harris and another person showed up unexpectedly.

Funky Dineva expressed frustration with what he described as Braxton’s sly shade and dishonesty. He pointed out that this was the third time Harris had appeared during their hangouts, suggesting that Braxton and the reality star were secretly involved. The commentator said he never felt comfortable with their relationship dynamic.

The night everything changed

According to Funky Dineva‘s account, he witnessed Braxton and Harris kissing that evening. He claimed Harris went upstairs with Braxton during the party, accompanied by his friend. If anyone knows what happened to her teeth, Funky Dineva insisted, it would be Harris and his companion since they were the ones who went upstairs with her.

The entertainment commentator went even further, alleging that Braxton’s injury was fabricated. He suggested she convinced a doctor to falsely attribute the damage to sleepwalking. What bothered him most, he said, was that Braxton allowed public speculation to continue, even when it might have implied he was somehow responsible for her injuries.

The accusations paint a picture of a friendship that collapsed under the weight of alleged deception. Funky Dineva’s willingness to share such specific details suggests deep frustration with how events have been portrayed.

Braxton responds through her art

Hours after Funky Dineva’s livestream began circulating, Braxton took to Instagram Stories with a cryptic message. She wrote that she normally doesn’t kiss and tell but directed her followers to watch her newly released visual album Heartbreak Retrograde.

The response was classic Braxton, using her platform to control the narrative without directly addressing the allegations. By pointing fans toward her music, she seemed to reinforce her previous claims that any relationship with Harris was purely business related. The visual album itself has sparked fan theories about which real-life experiences inspired various songs and scenes, though Braxton hasn’t confirmed specific connections.

Notable absences

Harris and his wife, Yandy Smith-Harris, have remained silent throughout the controversy. Both are well-known figures from VH1’s “Love & Hip Hop: New York,” where they’ve built a public brand around their marriage and family. Their decision not to comment has only intensified speculation among fans and entertainment watchers.

The couple typically addresses rumors directly through social media, making their silence particularly noticeable. Without their input, the public is left to piece together what actually happened from two very different accounts.

Unresolved questions

The dispute leaves several matters unsettled. What really happened the night Braxton sustained her injury? How does Harris fit into the situation? And why has this friendship deteriorated so dramatically and so publicly?

For Braxton, who has worked to rebuild her career and public image over recent years, these allegations arrive at a delicate moment. She’s been reestablishing herself as a solo artist and media personality, making questions about her credibility potentially problematic for those efforts.

The entertainment world has seen countless disputes play out across social media, where personal conflicts become public entertainment. Both Braxton and Funky Dineva have substantial followings, ensuring this disagreement will continue generating discussion.

As the situation unfolds, the truth about that mysterious evening remains somewhere between competing stories and the silence of those who might provide answers. Whether clarity will eventually emerge depends on whether other voices join the conversation or if this remains a war of words between former friends.
