Bhad Bhabie
Cash Me Fighting My Mom!!!
Published
A heated exchange went down between Bhad Bhabie and her mother … with the women coming to blows inside the rapper’s home … and it’s all on video.
The “Gucci Flip Flops” rapper just posted and deleted video of her getting into a physical altercation with her mom, Barbara Bregoli, in her living room … and it’s intense.
The footage shows Bhad Bhabie’s mom coming down the stairs and trying to get past a doggy gate before BB comes up from behind and hits her.
A struggle ensues and the fight spills out into the living room as the dogs go crazy … and it looks like mama bear gets BB in a headlock at one point.
The catalyst here … Bhad Bhabie says her mom called her late Black friend a “monkey.”
Bhad Bhabie’s sharing the footage on her social media, but she cautions … “Y’all think I condone this s*** I don’t.”

Sources close to Barbara, however, tell TMZ she never called anyone a racial slur and the video is from last July — shortly after Danielle released the clip of her being assaulted by her baby daddy Le Vaughn.
We hear they were arguing because LV’s mother wanted the “Hi Bich” singer to attend her pal’s funeral but Barbara didn’t … partially due to LV being there and Barbara having issues with the deceased friend. TMZ is told BB — who attended the funeral against her mom’s wishes — and Barbara have since made up and even spent Christmas together.

Barbara apparently thinks LV encouraged Bhad Bhabie to release the video and create a fake narrative … with the ultimate goal of isolating her from her family.
The internet sensation claimed just days ago she’s done with Le Vaughn for good — though she deleted the post. A rep for the star told TMZ at the time he “has been a strong source of support for Danni and their daughter throughout her cancer journey” which is their main concern.

Every weekend, at 12:30 or 2:30 p.m., children gather on foam mats and colored blocks to watch wooden renditions of The Tortoise and the Hare, Pinocchio and Aladdin for exactly 45 minutes — the length of one side of a cassette tape. “This isn’t a screen! It’s for reals happenin’ back there!” Alyssa Parkhurst, a 24-year-old puppeteer, says before each show. For most of the theater’s patrons, this is their first experience with live entertainment.
Puppetworks has served Brooklyn’s Park Slope neighborhood for over 30 years. Many of its current regulars are the grandchildren of early patrons of the theater. Its founder and artistic director, 90-year-old Nicolas Coppola, has been a professional puppeteer since 1954.

For just $11 a seat ($12 for adults), puppets of all types — marionette, swing, hand and rod — take turns transporting patrons back to the ’80s, when most of Puppetworks’ puppets were made and the audio tracks were taped. Century-old stories are brought back to life. Some even with a modern twist.
Since Coppola started the theater, changes have been made to the theater’s repertoire of shows to better meet the cultural moment. The biggest change was the characterization of princesses in the ’60s and ’70s, Coppola says: “Now, we’re a little more enlightened.”

Streaming has also influenced the theater’s selection of shows. Puppetworks recently brought back Rumpelstiltskin after the tale was repopularized following Dreamworks’ release of the Shrek film franchise.
Most of the parents in attendance find out about the theater through word of mouth or school visits, where Puppetworks’ team puts on shows throughout the week. Many say they take an interest in the establishment for its ability to peel their children away from screens.
Whitney Sprayberry was introduced to Puppetworks by her husband, who grew up in the neighborhood. “My husband and I are both artists, so we much prefer live entertainment. We allow screens, but are mindful of what we’re watching and how often.”

Other parents in the audience say they found the theater through one of Ronny Wasserstrom’s shows. Wasserstrom, one of Puppetworks’ first puppeteers, regularly performs for free at a nearby park.
Coppola says he isn’t a Luddite — he’s fascinated by animation’s endless possibilities, but cautions of how it could limit a child’s imagination. “The part of theater they’re not getting by being on the phone is the sense of community. In our small way, we’re keeping that going.”

Community is what keeps Sabrina Chap, the mother of 4-year-old Vida, a regular at Puppetworks. Every couple of weeks, when Puppetworks puts on a new show, she rallies a large group to attend. “It’s a way I connect all the parents in the neighborhood whose kids go to different schools,” she said. “A lot of these kids live within a block of each other.”
