The 51 year old rap legend, Pepa (of Salt-N-Pepa), has been heating up the internet throughout the past few days and now she’s got fans talking even more. A few days ago, the talk across social media was about her seemingly newly enhanced butt and hips. Now, the new talk is about how Pep’s out here apparently gettin’ her groove back like Angela Bassett, with her reportedly young boo-thang. He’s waaaay younger, check out the details below…

Pepa’s New Man?

Pepa took to Instagram the other day, to introduce fans to whom many folks have concluded to be her new 28 year old man. His name is Aundre Dean and there is a twenty-three year age gap between he and Pep,’ but it looks like they ain’t got no worries about that whatsoever. Aundre is a former TSU college football player, who starred in the 2015 biographical film, “Carter High.” That film also starred Vivica Foxx, Pooch Hall (from “The Game” TV series), Charles S. Dutton (of The Roc sitcom), rapper David Banner, and many more.

The two reported lovebirds both posted the same photo of themselves chillin’ on vacation together in Maui, Hawaii, dressed in coordinating white linen outfits. Pepa’s caption read, “Work Hard, Play Hard ‍♂️ #Maui.” Aundre’s read, “Holding it down!” Now, for our fellow Old Schoolers out there, the term, “holding it down,” typically means that the person they’re referring to is their other half.

Here’s What Fans Say About Them

Although Pep’ and Aundre have not said anything further, regarding their alleged “Stella” movie inspired love, fans have taken their posts, corresponding exotic vacation, and coordinating outfits, as all the confirmation they needed and have proceeded to congratulating them on their union:

The Controversy Over Her New Body

As we previously reported, Pepa is a lovely woman and her social media photos prove she’s not afraid to show off her body. It’s no secret that she’s had a few plastic surgery procedures throughout the years and it appears that her more recent physical enhancements may have been to her butt and hips. No big deal, right? In today’s times, we’ve all seen countless female celebs add a lil’ somethin’ to those areas.

For many fans, the thing that stands out about Pepa’s, is her new leg-to-hip-to-butt ratio. That brings us to Pepa’s recent sexy Instagram pics that are garnering mixed fan reactions. Some fans are giving her props, some offering constructive criticism, and others are being outright brutally honest in a way that would require Pep’ to have thick skin and strong ‘unbothered’ tendencies.

After seeing Pep’ in her black and white swimsuit and her gold bodysuit ensemble (above), fans were quick to point out the changes they’d noticed in her body (below):

brittney_irene_: What happened to her? What’s wrong with her hips?

beingfree2016: Why are y’all lying to this woman omg she looks like she has to knots on the side of her hips. They don’t match the size of her legs and I love pep but ppl stop playing and be honest with her @darealpepa

kassha_brown: @mimib911 why are you on her page being judgmental? @darealpepa has always been an artist that I admired, what you think about her or what I say is none of my business.. keep it classy ❤️

ichloecakes: @itssremike i wish it was unfortunately her and Tiny have the same wack a$$ surgeon The ants go marching two by two…

aquariuspride: You’re beautiful but you need to go back to your surgeon so that he can put some fatty tissue in your thighs so that I can match the Brazilian butt lift that you have it’s got to be proportioned that’s all got to get some meat on your legs so it matches that fat juicy booty you got back there.

So far, Pep’ hasn’t responded to the backlash, but by now, she’s probably used to it and couldn’t care less. Live your life Pep!’
