Yung Gravy, whose real name is Matthew Raymond Hauri, has found something to talk about with his new relationship with Sheri Easterling. Or, I should say, he’s found something the press will ask him about. (For those of you raising your hands, please refer to my earlier post to find out who these people are.) When we discussed the rapper’s blossoming romance with the Queen of the MILFs, I mentioned that Sheri’s ex, Addison Rae’s dad, entered the discussion, even though no one invited him. Monty Lopez and Sheri have supposedly been living apart for a year after his alleged affair with 25-year-old Renée Ash.
In my haste to put that post together, I got a few things wrong. Sheri and Addison are both huge influencers, of course. But Yung has 10 million followers himself. So, I’m making him out to be an unknown, which is clearly untrue. And how this relationship between him and Sheri went down was a little more orchestrated, it seems. Yung really has been trying to put out this idea that he’s into ‘MILFs’ for a while now. And he specifies the MILF part, not me. He floated the idea of dating Sheri publicly, but she reached out to him via DM and I guess they had a TikTok together before the VMAs. That’s when Monty first got involved. According to Yung, after that TikTok, Monty threatened him in some way.
It’s worth noting that ahead of their VMAs appearance, Yung hinted at their budding romance during a podcast episode in late July—which Monty seemed not to appreciate, with the latter posting a TikTok video telling the rapper to “watch what he says” before he gets “knocked down in a boxing match.”
In an interview with NME published Aug. 30, Yung shared that there’s “not a lot of downsides” to social media popularity, “other than Monty [Lopez].”
“Addison Rae’s dad wanted to fight me,” he said. “That s–t was just f–king entertaining I feel really bad for his daughter because he was really embarrassing.”
Although Yung noted he can easily respond to Monty’s challenge directly, he said simply chooses not to.
“I’m not really doing s–t,” he continued. “I can pick up my phone and film a 20-second video and post it. Then I got someone’s dad putting hours and hours into their day, trying to create a beef that I don’t have time for. It’s funny to look at. I get a giggle out of that.”
I said Monty threatened Yung in some way because I don’t understand Monty’s threat – is he going to be in the ring with Yung? Or is he going to put Yung in the ring with someone who can actually box? Maybe it’s just some cautionary words, those boxing mats can be slippery, be careful! I know Monty was trying to threaten Yung just short of litigation. Monty is desperately trying to stay relevant in this conversation when nobody really cares about him. Except for his kids. Like Yung said, I feel bad for Addison and her brothers who are 14 and eight. At least Yung had the right reaction largely ignoring it.
There was discussion on the last post about how awkward Yung and Sheri were at kissing. I felt the same way, for all the talk of their “massive PDA” on the Red Carpet, they looked like they could use a refresher course on how to do it. And then I saw this article claiming there is just a PR stunt. I’m not saying it is, but here are a few things I’ve put together. 1) See above for the kissing. 2) Yung has this whole MILF thing he puts out but there’s no evidence he’s dated an older woman or a mom before. Just some photoshop scenarios he’s put together. As the Page Six article claimed, he dates young blonde women. In an upsetting sidenote, you know who is a young, 20-something blonde? Addison Rae. 3) Sheri was humiliated by Monty’s affair and maybe it hurt her ego or maybe it hurt her brand. Either way, having a young, up-and-coming rapper offering to be your arm candy would certainly be tempting. And 4) Yung has a new album dropping in two months. Again, I’m not saying anything, I’m just telling you what I found out.
If things don’t work out with Sheri, guess who’s next:
