'Love And Hip Hop Atlanta' Season 5: Karlie Redd On Why She Wants Scrapp Deleon And Not Lyfe Jennings [VIDEO]
Karlie Redd might have been going strong with R&B crooner Lyfe Jennings. But in a new clip of VH1’s Love & Hip Hop Atlanta she has revealed why she’d rather spend time with Scrapp Deleon, despite his drama with Tommie and Tiarra.
Karlie sat down with K. Michelle and why Scrapp’s issues with the ladies were not enough to keep her away.
She first said that Lyfe was pretty much MIA, and just in time Scrapp “came long.”
“I mean, [he’s] sweeping me off my feet—escorting me to set every day when I was filming, bringing me lunch, dinner, anything I want… taking me shopping…being everything that Lyfe is supposed to be. I like him.”
She then dropped the bomb that Scrapp has been sentenced to years in prison for a drug related offense.
“You know me. I have a heart. I feel sorry for everybody.”
K. Michelle said having a heart wasn’t enough.
“You have a brain,” she said. “What are you doing? You’re putting yourself out there for somebody you don’t even know. What if he is that bad of a guy? What are you gonna do get married in a cell too?”
Karlie refused to let go of Scrapp but said she would prefer to “stay positive.”
Karlie also didn’t mention the fact that Scrapp has been caught up with drama between his longtime girlfriend, Tommie, and the mother of his child, Tiarra.
