Tommie Lee is facing another legal battle after authorities say the Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta veteran tried to enter a World Cup match without a ticket.
The reality star, born Atasha Chizaah Jefferson, was arrested Saturday, July 11, after allegedly making her way into Hard Rock Stadium in Miami without a ticket during the England vs. Norway World Cup match, according to an arrest report obtained by TMZ. Deputies with the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office say Lee, 42, worked her way through a restricted area and reached the stadium’s 100-level seating before she was stopped.
Per the outlet, Lee was among six people arrested during the match, which England won 2-1 to advance to the semifinals. When TMZ reached out for comment, Lee declined to respond.
She was booked on a third-degree felony charge of interference with a sporting or entertainment event and taken to the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center for processing, according to an article The U.S. Sun published on Tuesday, July 14. Lee has since pleaded not guilty, the outlet reported.

Roughly 65,000 fans packed the stadium that day, and 19 people were ejected, though authorities described the incidents as isolated and said they were handled quickly, according to the report.
The outlet cited social media reports indicating Lee was released the next day after posting a $1,000 bond, and she later shared a Snapchat video appearing to be in good spirits following her release.
This isn’t Lee’s first run-in with South Florida law enforcement. In 2024, she was arrested on a battery charge stemming from an altercation outside Miami Beach’s LIV Nightclub, The U.S. Sun reported.
Lee first broke out on Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta, joining as a supporting player in Season 5 before graduating to the main cast for Seasons 6 and 7, where her volatile relationship with Scrapp DeLeon became a defining storyline, per the outlet. She was later let go from the series following an arrest on child cruelty, aggravated assault and aggravated stalking charges, though she was referenced in Season 8.
She pleaded guilty in June 2019 to one count of first-degree cruelty to children, three counts of simple battery involving family violence and one count of disrupting a public school, according to a report from Legal Claity. She was sentenced to 10 years but avoided prison after completing a court-ordered residential treatment program and was placed on probation.
Lee has since remained a fixture on Zeus Network reality programming and works as a model and rapper. She is mother to two daughters, Havali, 20, and Samaria, 22.
