T.I.
The 17-year-old created a stir after a man told her she looked too mature in her photos.

T.I.'s daughter Deyjah Harris sparked up quite the conversation recently after she uploaded a series of photos to Instagram. The self-proclaimed 17-year-old Princess of the South posted a few selfies to share with her 1 million+ followers, and all was well until a man commented that her image made her look older than her age. “Females like this is why n****s go to jail," an Instagram user named @b_zooee wrote. "We gotta make a law where chicks can’t use makeup til they 18. I’m tired of this s**t."

Harris, who comes from a bloodline that is well-versed in the creative social media clapback, made sure to put the man in his place. The teen wouldn't allow him to place the blame on the younger women that men find attractive, but shifted focus to the men who can't control themselves.

“N****s go to jail because they pigs, and aren’t right in the head, not because someone is wearing makeup," Harris responded. "You think I’m not supposed to wear makeup because of n****s and their perverted mind? Man (middle finger) y’all!!!! I don’t live for y’all nor do I wear makeup for y’all. This comment is quite imbecile and shows a lot about you and your way of thinking. We gotta make a law where irrelevant ass men just leave women alone, mind their business, and more importantly stay in their place. Have a bless and highly favored day.”

A debate in the comment section ensued, as people went back and forth over what is and isn't appropriate for a teenage girl to wear. Meanwhile, Harris has made sure that everyone knows exactly how old she is, after writing "I AM 17" in her Instagram bio.
