Teddi Mellencamp, star of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and daughter of musician John Mellencamp, is reportedly the owner of the Los Angeles home where Pop Smoke was killed. According to TMZ, Teddi and her husband own multiple properties in Los Angeles, and it’s “possible Pop Smoke was renting” from them. That location was also the place where the rapper posed for pictures that may have attracted the attention of the wrong people.
“Just hours before he was gunned down, Pop Smoke mugged with a pal in a car — the friend holding a fortune in bills — in the driveway of the home where he was shot,” reported TMZ. The “four masked gunman” may have known where Pop Smoke was located because the rapper had reportedly revealed the address of the home when sharing images of gift bags.
Following the incident, Mellencamp took to Instagram to address the tragedy. She said she did not want to comment while “law enforcement officers [were] diligently doing their jobs.” However, she did share a sentiment that echoes what many others have said, writing, “Foremost, we would like to extend our prayers and condolences to the family and loved ones affected by this tragic loss of life.” Goodbye, Pop Smoke, and R.I.P.
