Over the years, Mai has made controversial remarks about dating. She once infamously stated why she preferred to be in relationships with white men as opposed to Black men.

During a 2014 episode of The Real, Mai said: “I loved Black guys. For me, dark meat on the side, white keeps me mean and lean...that’s what I like.” She was immediately met with criticism from co-hosts Tamar Braxton and Loni Love.

Years later, the clip went viral again when she officially announced her relationship with Jeezy.
