Tyler Perry star China Anne McClain called out music legend Anita Baker for being rude to her mother, Shontell McClain.
The House Of Payne star says she and her mother spotted Ms. Baker filling out a passport application. Shontell went over to tell Ms. Baker she was a fan of her music and…
All hell broke loose.
China says Anita went off on her mother, yelling and cussing her out in front of the whole office.
Anita says she was trying to be incognegro in the passport office, and almost got away with it, until China’s “very loud” mother blew her cover.
Read their exchange below:

My mother is a pro, Ms. Baker. She knows how to QUIETLY compliment someone, which is what happened (there were only like 8 people there)
However.. God knows the truth. The Word teaches us to love & respect one another and that’s not what you did today. God bless. @iamanitabaker https://t.co/RgfftEDdNL— China Anne McClain (@chinamcclain) April 20, 2018

Before y’all hop down China’s throat about coming for a legend, she ain’t the first one to call out Anita for being rude. Ironically, I just read a post on Facebook yesterday where people discussed their experiences with rude celebs in the comments. Anita’s name popped up a few times… and no one was surprised.
