Rapper Ice Spice was slapped in the face inside a McDonald’s restaurant in Hollywood earlier this week, with footage of the incident quickly going viral across social media.
According to multiple reports, the incident occurred on Wednesday when a woman identified as “Vayah” approached the table where Ice Spice, whose real name is Isis Gaston, and a friend were eating.
Vayah attempted to strike up a conversation and reportedly asked to sit with them.
Ice Spice and her friend appeared uninterested and gestured for the woman to leave.
The situation escalated rapidly when Vayah slapped Ice Spice in the face.
Security footage obtained by TMZ shows Ice Spice climbing over tables to engage with the woman as customers attempted to intervene and pull Vayah away.

Ice Spice’s attorney, Bradford Cohen, issued a statement confirming that the unprovoked attack has been reported to the Los Angeles Police Department.
“We will be pursuing any and all avenues to hold the perpetrators responsible for their actions, including criminally and civilly,” Cohen told Page Six. “We are also exploring holding the location responsible for their lack of appropriate security.”
The woman involved, Vayah, later spoke to TMZ and claimed Ice Spice was “disrespectful and rude,” alleging the rapper called her a “bitch” during the exchange.
On Friday, Ice Spice broke her silence on the matter with a post on X, reposting the TMZ footage of the fight alongside the caption, “this wouldn’t happen at Wendy’s.”
