Sexyy Red Turns Up To Remixed Michael Jackson Song 

The rapper shared a video of her fun in the studio on Wednesday. Instead of saying “beat it,” Sexyy Red rapped, “eat it,” and in the video pointed toward her pelvic area. Her whole verse was about going downtown with it—the explicit version.

“I’m finna put it on your grill, just eat it. Just eat it. You better not n*t fast cause I hate a minute man and if that d**k is trash I’m telling all my friends…”

In her caption, she wrote, “Leaked footage from the Michael Jackson movie. HOOCHIE TRIBUTE TO DA BEST.” Her post follows the first teaser of MJ’s biopic, which drops in April. ‘Beat IIt’ went number one on Billboard Hot 100 in April 1983, and stayed there for three straight weeks. Michael Jackson’s song comes with the message of being anti-violence and urging people to walk away. But Sexyy Red? Take a listen below to hear how she added her own spin!

Know Who Doesn’t Play About Samples? Beyoncé

And speaking of samples, one superstar who doesn’t play about hopping on her songs is thee Beyoncé. Back in 2022, Fivio Foreign opened up about Bey asking him to clean up his lyrics before he could sample Destiny’s Child in his song. He tapped Queen Naija and Coi Leray for the track, ‘What’s My Name?’ which sampled ‘Say My Name.’

““I cleaned it up a lot. Yeah, it was like you can’t be talking about girls like that. But afterward Big John and em explained to me too like it’s a bigger record now, to clean it up, it’s bigger now,” Fivio revealed on ‘Ebro in the Morning.’

The FBI has been blocked from accessing key evidence in the search for Savannah Guthrie’s missing mom, Nancy Guthrie, according to a new report.

A law enforcement official told Reuters on Thursday, February 12, that the FBI requested that the Pima County Sheriff’s Department send physical evidence — including a glove and other DNA — to the bureau’s national crime lab in Quantico, Virginia, for processing as their search for Nancy, 84, continues. Per the official, sheriff Chris Nanos has insisted on using a different lab in Florida, delaying the FBI in its ability to help the case.

Retired FBI agent Scott Curtis addressed the report on Thursday, telling Us Weekly, “Friction between the Sheriff’s Department and the FBI will not help matters.” Curtis is also “surprised” the FBI hasn’t taken over the case nearly two weeks after Nancy was reported missing.

Savannah’s mom was last seen in Arizona on January 31. Nanos previously told Us that there were some suspicious clues at Nancy’s home that pointed to a crime taking place.

The FBI is releasing new details in hopes of identifying a potential suspect in the disappearance of Savannah Guthrie’s missing mom, Nancy Guthrie. “Today, the FBI is increasing its reward up to $100,000 for information leading to the location of Nancy Guthrie and/or the arrest and conviction of anyone involved in her disappearance,” FBI Phoenix […]

“I’ve been doing this for 50 years. When something doesn’t sit well, it doesn’t sit well,” he said earlier this month. “Something unusual at that house occurred that made us go, ‘Wow … something’s wrong here. Something doesn’t fit.’”

Nanos emphasized that he didn’t want Nancy’s loved ones to “lose hope,” adding, “But in the same sense, just as there’s hope, there’s also things that point to us that say, ‘This lady’s in danger.’”

Savannah and her siblings, Annie and Camron Guthrie, have issued several emotional statements pleading for their mom’s safe return. Shortly before the deadline of an alleged ransom note was reached on Monday, February 9, Savannah confessed that her family was in an “hour of desperation.”

One day later, the FBI released surveillance footage and photos of an individual at Nancy’s home. The subject was seen wearing a mask and carrying a backpack, with what appeared to be a gun kept at their waist.

Investigators later told NBC Tucson affiliate KVOA on Wednesday, February 11, that black gloves were found during the search around Nancy’s home. The gloves were submitted for DNA analysis.

Authorities previously announced that $50,000 was being offered for information about Nancy’s abduction before doubling the amount.

“Today, the FBI is increasing its reward up to $100,000 for information leading to the location of Nancy Guthrie and/or the arrest and conviction of anyone involved in her disappearance,” read a statement shared by FBI Phoenix via social media on Thursday.

The post revealed that “new identifying details about the suspect” were able to be “confirmed after a forensic analysis of the doorbell camera footage by the FBI’s Operational Technology Division.”

“The suspect is described as a male, approximately 5’9” – 5’10” tall, with an average build. In the video, he is wearing a black, 25-liter ‘Ozark Trail Hiker Pack’ backpack,” the statement continued. “We hope this updated description will help concentrate the public tips we are receiving. Since February 1, 2026, the FBI has collected over 13,000 tips from the public related to this case.”

Sexyy Red had the internet split after she dropped videos from the studio teasing her own cover of Michael Jackson’s ‘Beat It.’ Some fans swore she was just trolling and vibing out, while others felt like her choice of words wasn’t the best way to show the “King of Pop” love. Sexyy hasn’t cleared the air about what she plans to do with the track, but MJ’s estate clocked it quick and set the record straight on whether she actually had the green light.

Meanwhile, The Shade Room’s comment section was still split. Some fans still think Sexyy Red was just playing around, while others were happy that MJ’s camp straight up told her to ‘Beat It’ and put some respeck on his name.

Did Sexyy Red Take It Too Far With Her Cover?

Red didn’t drop a diss track, but MJ’s estate came through with a response — literally within 24 hours. Earlier this week, the ‘SkeeYee’ raptress teased her own version of ‘Beat It,’ and the internet went wild. She flipped MJ’s lyrics into something that was more risqué.

“I’m finna put it on your grill, just eat it. Just eat it. You better not n** fast cause I hate a minute man and if that d**k is trash I’m telling all my friends […]” Red said in her verse.

In her Instagram video, she even tried to hit some of MJ’s signature moves — yes, the moonwalk was included. In her caption, she wrote, “Leaked footage from da Michael Jackson movie 🎥 HOOCHIE TRIBUTE TO DA BEST 🫡🫶🏾 LLMJ 🩸”
