One of the ladies from XSCAPE was noticeably different from the other ladies on the blue carpet at BET’s Soul Train Awards. Now, LaTocha Smith and Kandi Burruss are feuding on Instagram about who is at fault for the wardrobe mixup. Details inside…
Over the years, the ladies of XSCAPE have had a rocky relationship. And it seems as if at least two of the group’s members are on the outs again.
Over the weekend, XSCAPE, including Kandi Burruss-Tucker, Tameka “Tiny” Harris, LaTocha Scott, and Tamika Scott, made their way to BET’s 2022 Soul Train Awards to accept the Lady of Soul Award to recognize and honor their achievements and contributions to Rhythm and Blues, Jazz, Hip-Hop, and Gospel music. The trailblazing group is just the second group to receive the honor, following SWV in 2017.
Fans were confused when XSCAPE made their way to the carpet. People questioned why LaTocha didn’t color coordinate with the other ladies. LaTocha wore a silk green dress, while the other ladies (including her sister) wore similar bedazzled gowns in shades of silver/nude. It messed up the group vibe, and fans quickly pointed it out.
After receiving backlash online, LaTocha took to social media to relish in the moment as well as address the wardrobe mixup.
”Still on a high from last night,” she wrote. “So Grateful to receive the #LadyOfSoul Award. To still be embraced after 29 years is very humbling. Thank you to all of the Xscape Fans who’ve supported us throughout the years, and Thank you to BET for giving us our flowers. Make sure you tune in to the #SoulTrainAwards on November 26th to see us do our thing."
She added, “Sorry, I didn’t get the memo, but everyone still looked amazing.”
On Instagram, Kandi shared a clip of them posing it up on the blue carpet with the caption, “#LadyOfSoul winners! It’s a blessing to still be here. Thank you to all of our supporters! Love y’all!!! Make sure to watch the #SoulTrainAwards on November 26th! Me & my girls PERFORMED!!!!! Don’t miss it!”
In Kandi’s comments, a fan posted a comment in LaTocha’s defense, in which the singer responded, “@Latice777, thank you! Because they didn’t tell me anything. It’s more to this than people know.”
It’s literally always one of them DAMN sisters.

Moments later, Kandi responded to LaTocha’s comment, writing, “The only thing for people to know is that you chose to have a separate stylist from the rest of the group. You choose to separate yourself don’t blame us for that. Stop continuing to put out false narratives,” adding the rolling eyes emoji.
Later, Kandi turned the comments off on the post.
Word on the curb was that LaTocha supposedly blocked Kandi on IG. LaTocha claims Kandi blocked HER:
A mess. They need some "understanding."
Jon The Stylist, LaTocha's stylist, shared a screenshot of a text exchange between himself and someone else. It's unclear if he texted LaTocha or the other stylist who styled the other ladies.
In the text, LaTocha's stylist asked what was the color scheme for the carpet. The person responded, “No scheme, I would just say now black just a solid color. I think just glamorous and long.”
The stylist replied, “I was just thinking cohesive picture! But gothca, it will be a gown of some sort.”

Hmm…so who’s telling the truth? Do you think LaTocha did this on purpose?
We hope these ladies can iron out their issues once and for all, and give the fans the tour and album they’ve been begging for.
At least they all were on the same page for their performance 'fits:
Hosted by actor/comedian Deon Cole, the 2022 Soul Train Awards premieres Sunday, November 27th at 8PM EST/PST on BET and BET Her.
