Overview
- Inside the NBA, presented by McDonald’s on Saturday, opened with Charles Barkley joking about “slappy Happy Meals” as he brought up Ice Spice being slapped.
- Producers then cut to the security video of the altercation as the studio crew laughed, and host Ernie Johnson said this was not what the sponsor intended.
- The referenced incident occurred Wednesday at a Hollywood McDonald’s, with TMZ footage showing a woman striking the rapper at her table before the scuffle moved outside.
- Ice Spice later posted the video on X with the caption “this wouldn’t happen at Wendy’s,” which further amplified the clip.
- Her lawyer, Bradford Cohen, said the case was reported to the LAPD and that they will pursue criminal and civil action, including possible claims over the restaurant’s security, with no arrests or filings reported yet.
