Ice Spice Addresses Viral Altercation

Ice Spice has spoken out about an altercation that took place at a McDonald's fast-food restaurant in Hollywood, addressing the incident on social media along with a clip of a new song.

She took to X on Friday evening to make light of the situation and diffuse the drama surrounding it, including a clip that circulated widely online. “This wouldn’t happen at a Wendy’s,” she wrote, no doubt inspired by her partnership with the fast food chain.

The video clip came to light via TMZ, showing Ice Spice sitting in a booth at a Hollywood McDonald’s early on Wednesday morning. 

In the footage, a woman approaches the rapper and seemingly attempts to sit next to them, only for Ice Spice to point her towards the door. 

The woman then slapped the Bronx native, who chased after her by climbing across the booths and tables in the establishment. Outside of the McDonald’s, the melee continued as it appeared that Ice Spice was pushed onto her back.

In a statement, her attorney, Bradford Cohen, said they will “hold the perpetrators responsible for their actions.” “The unprovoked attack on my client has been reported to the LAPD and we will be pursuing any and all criminal and civil avenues to hold the perpetrators responsible for their actions,” he said. “We are also exploring holding the location responsible for their apparent lack of appropriate security.”

He continued, “Not to mention that the individuals involved obviously did not realize that we would get the video from inside the McDonald’s where the unprovoked attack occurred. They then turned their cameras on after the initial attack as if to set our client up, and as they say on the video to ‘go viral.’ The only thing that will be going viral for them is their mugshots.”
