Floyd Mayweather may have had a drama-free win in the ring this past weekend, but it seems that there was a different beef brewing ringside. Josie Harris, the mother of Mayweather’s daughter Jirah, is raising a stink about the fact that her daughter’s dress inadvertently matched the one worn by Mayweather’s on-again fiancee Shantel Jackson. She’s fuming that her daughter looked like a “gold digging hoochie”. Damn.
Harris paid $795 for a custom made Michael Costello dress for Jirah. It turns out that Jackson also employed Costello and ended up with the same hot pink, gold belted dress. Costello claims that his team told her that Jirah and Jackson would be wearing the same dress and she didn’t care. He went on to say that if she wanted something exclusive, she should have paid more. Snap for the kids.
That hasn’t deterred Harris from popping off to TMZ:
Josie tells us, “It’s an unspoken rule and a cardinal sin for a ‘real designer’ to dress clients alike going to the same major event … Tacky, tacky, tacky.”
And Josie didn’t stop there, turning her anger toward Jackson as well … adding, “She is a total gold digger … She conveniently came back around 2 days before Floyd got his $41.5 million check.”
Oop! I think that Jackson being back is really where this anger is stemming from. It seems that Harris may not be fully over her baby daddy. Or maybe she’s just looking out for his interests. Either way, it doesn’t look like she and Jackson will be friends anytime soon.
