*Tasha K, the controversial YouTuber who lost a $4 million defamation lawsuit to Cardi B, doesn’t have the funds to pay the judgment, EUR reported previously.
As RadarOnline.com reports, Tasha K (aka LaTasha Kebe), recently declared bankruptcy and informed the court of her financial situation.
Cardi sued the popular YouTuber [real name: Latasha Kebe] for defamation after she created videos accusing the hip-hop star of being a drug addict and former prostitute with an STD. Cardi B testified during the 2023 trial that she suffered extreme emotional distress and that her marriage to Migos rapper Offset was affected. A Georgia jury ultimately found Tasha K liable on four counts and awarded Cardi $4.05 million in damages.
We reported in June that Cardi B was ordered to halt attempts to collect on millions owed to her by Tasha K as part of a defamation suit.
As a result of Tasha K’s bankruptcy filing, a Georgia judge ordered Cardi to cease her collection efforts, according to court documents obtained by RadarOnline.com. Tasha’s pending legal matters were placed on hold until the Chapter 11 case was resolved, the judge declared.
Per Radar, in the documents filed in Tasha’s Chapter 11, she noted that her income is from being a “content creator/influencer” and she “earns her income by appearing on YouTube, Instagram, and other social media.”
Here’s more from Radar:
In her new filing, Tasha admitted the total value of her assets is $58,595 with the biggest asset being a Chevy Silverado, with a value of $46,750 and a $53,412 lien on the truck for purchase money financing.
She said without the truck her assets only total $12k. Tasha revealed the IRS has filed an estimated priority claim of $97k for taxes for 2021 and 2022. However, Tasha said she filed both returns and it appears the tax principal due is $150k with another $30k due in state income taxes.
“Clearly [Tasha] does not have the ability to pay the [Cardi] judgment in full,” Tasha’s lawyer said in court, per RadarOnline.
