LeBron Fires Back at Kevin Gates Over Comments About His Wife
Gary’s Tea: LeBron Fires Back at Kevin Gates Over Disrespectful Comments About His Wife
LeBron James has never been shy about showing love and appreciation for his wife, Savannah James — and when someone crosses the line with her, he knows exactly how to handle it. Recently, rapper Kevin Gates made headlines for some harsh and unexpected comments aimed at the couple. During a video he shared on Instagram, Gates claimed he wouldn’t trade lives with LeBron, because he didn’t like the way Savannah looks at her husband.

In the three-minute clip, Gates went so far as to liken Savannah to a jail warden, accusing her of policing LeBron during games rather than admiring him like he says white women do. “I don’t like the way Savannah look at LeBron,” he said. “I like the way them white women look at LeBron… they be dicked out.” He even criticized how she reacts when LeBron interacts with teammates, suggesting she doesn’t support him with the same energy.

Fans quickly came to Savannah’s defense, and LeBron, as expected, didn’t stay silent. He didn’t name Gates, but his Instagram response spoke volumes. He posted a cozy picture of him and Savannah and dropped a caption that read, “Kings don’t concern themselves with the opinions of peasants. Where to next Queen?!?! Let’s get it!” In her own subtle way, Savannah responded with a classic Nicki Minaj meme saying, “What? Um—chile, anyways, so.” Classy, unbothered, and straight to the point.
Despite the drama, LeBron’s focus remains on his legacy. He just made history again by becoming Barbie’s first-ever “Kenbassador,” partnering with Mattel and his LeBron James Family Foundation. His new Ken doll is a reflection of his roots and his impact, dressed in a varsity jacket with Akron details and his signature motto, “Just a Kid from Akron.”

In a statement about the Barbie collaboration, LeBron said, “Now, as an adult, I understand how vital it is for young people to have positive figures to look up to. That’s why partnering with Barbie to release the LeBron James Kenbassador doll is such an honor.”
