Yaya Mayweather sparked a frenzy on social media with a post about her dreams of a future proposal and marriage, but a cheeky spelling slip had everyone talking. The timing couldn't be more perfect—or ironic—coming right after Young Thug's real-life proposal to Mariah The Scientist. Roomies are divided: some offering grace, others serving shade.
Oh, honey, grab your popcorn because Yaya Mayweather just served up some unintentional comedy gold on X—formerly Twitter—on Wednesday, December 17. In a sweet, hopeful message, she spilled: “aww i hope i meet someone one day, eventually they purpose to me, and then we get married.” Yep, you guessed it—that 'purpose' was meant to be 'propose.' A tiny slip that's got the timeline in stitches! 😅
This gem dropped just hours after Young Thug got down on one knee for Mariah The Scientist during his 'Hometown Hero' benefit concert in Atlanta on Tuesday, December 16. Yaya was all heart-eyes about it, reposting the clip with pure excitement: “OMG I’M SCREAMING CONGRATULATIONS TO MY SISSY I’M SO HAPPY FOR HER.” Iconic sis support, right there.
But leave it to The Shade Room's comment section to turn it into a full-blown roast session. Some fans clocked the error immediately and kept it cute, like @muse_goddess who quipped, “In her defense, I only want a man with purpose to propose to me too.” Others preached grace amid the chaos: @creativetoya noted, “The internet is undefeated one tiny slip, one typo, and suddenly your whole life is under a microscope.” And @krazykayyy_ chimed in, “It’s a typo y’all give the girl some grace 🙄.”
Not everyone was so forgiving, though. @annaikram.j threw a little shade: “Well for starters let’s work on English and spelling first babes 😭.” And @fineshyt_piinky couldn't resist the NBA YoungBoy jab: “You gotta leave NBA Youngboy alone first for that blessing sis 😂😩.” Even @odyourbusinessfixer admitted, “I had to reread this 5 times. She means propose. Got it ❤️😅.”
Meanwhile, Yaya's been popping off elsewhere, like that courtside Lakers game vibe with dad Floyd Mayweather and little Kentrell Jr. When trolls came for her comfy fit, she clapped back smoothly: “i like dressing cute, comfy, & chill. i don’t like wearing makeup all the time. i’m very secure in who i am, i have nothing to prove by getting dolled up and dressing any other way. i’m happy and so is my bank account.” Queen energy!
So, Roomies, is Yaya's typo the messiest mishap of the week, or just a relatable fumble in the quest for forever? Spill your tea below.
