AceShowbiz - Kevin Hart's ex-wife Torrei Hart has responded to backlash over her collaboration with Katt Williams. Torrei, who recently announced that she'd join Katt for his "Dark Matters" tour, denied trying to shade her ex with her decision.
In an interview with TMZ published on Wednesday, January 24, Torrei was asked why Katt chose her to join him on the comedy tour. "Why wouldn't he? I mean, I'm funny as f**k," she jokingly replied. "That's my boy. We've known each other for years and it's only right. I've opened up for Katt before."
Further explaining their close relationship, Torrei said, "He's given me plenty of opportunities. We've shot a movie together. We're just close. We're so close Katt has watched my dog before, like we're friends. We've known each other for 20 years. This isn't something that just happened."
Torrei later made it clear that she didn't intend to shade anyone with her decision and that it has nothing to do with the current tension between Katt and Kevin following Katt's controversial "Club Shay Shay" interview. "I have no shade at all to Kevin. Even the stuff that's going on between him and Katt, that's not my beef. That is not my beef. I have beef with no one," she stressed.
Earlier this month, Torrei took to Instagram to announce that she'll be touring with Katt. "#Charlotte #Orlando #Tampa, come see me live with my good friend @kattwilliams on the Dark Matters tour," so she wrote on Instagram alongside a picture of them posing together.
In response to the collaboration, Kevin showed nothing but support for his ex. The "Central Intelligence" actor said, "My success is my success. I want everybody to win, I love everybody." The 44-year-old continued, "I want everybody to win. I hope the tour is great."
