2 Chainz officially has one less headache to worry about.

The “Spend It” rapper is now in the clear after a federal judge in North Carolina dismissed a $5 million dollar lawsuit brought by a woman being called a “thot” in one of his viral videos.


The ordeal began in March 2014 when the woman, Christine Chisholm, was invited by fellow rapper Cap 1 to hang out backstage after a 2 Chainz show. Chainz, who happened to be filming for his vlog at the time, came across Chisholm and upon not recognizing her, began making fun of her and referred to her as a “thot” (that h– over there). He later posted a video with the title “#isthisyourthot” that went viral pretty quickly with over 10 million views after only 10 weeks.

Chisholm’s suit claimed that soon after the video went viral she lost her job at a barbershop as a result of the negative attention. She also says that she began to be harassed when in public and that the video has ruined her good reputation.


In dismissing the case, the judge ruled that being called a “thot” is not an example of “extreme or outrageous conduct” on the part of the 38-year-old rapper as Chisholm’s suit claimed.
