Never let it be said that rapper Ice Spice doesn\u2019t take her fast food promotional duties extremely seriously.\u00a0The\u00a0Y2K!\u00a0artist is even, apparently, capable of promoting brands while talking about what certainly appears to be a crime being committed against her, posting on social media this weekend<\/a> that \u201cThis wouldn\u2019t happen at Wendy\u2019s,\u201d in response to a viral clip of her being slapped by a stranger while eating at a McDonald\u2019s.<\/p>\n

To be clear: We don\u2019t have any interest in making light of the actual incident, which appears to show a woman approaching the rapper while she\u2019s just trying to get a meal in public, only to grow more agitated and eventually strike the musician. This is exhibit Roughly 1 Million in the case of People Should Be Chill Even If They Just Saw A Famous Person, and there\u2019s nothing funny about that in and of itself. (Per Billboard<\/a>, Ice Spice intends to press charges, with her attorney telling press, \u201cThe 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.\u201d They might also go after the McDonald\u2019s for not having adequate security.)<\/p>\n

But there\u00a0is\u00a0something pretty funny about Ice Spice managing to make a joke out of the incident by turning it into another front in the eternal battlefield of the fast food wars. (We have personally been in some Wendy\u2019s where this absolutely would\u00a0happen, by the by, but we can\u2019t speak to Ice Spice\u2019s personal lived experience, or the Billboard report that she\u2019s apparently in Los Angeles to film a commercial for the company.) Oh, and she also posted a clip of what\u2019s apparently a new song along with the video, which is really some next-level self-promotion. Which leaves us to ponder: Does it count as a musical debut if the video in question ends up getting played in court?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Never let it be said that rapper Ice Spice doesn\u2019t take her fast food promotional duties extremely seriously.\u00a0The\u00a0Y2K!\u00a0artist…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":613242,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[49,48,75,341],"class_list":["post-613241","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-music","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-entertainment","tag-music"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/613241","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=613241"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/613241\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/613242"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=613241"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=613241"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=613241"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
