Did Salt-N-Pepa Really Fire DJ Spinderella?

Salt-N-Pepa with no Spinderella?!? Say it isn’t so! Well, we wish we could, but it looks like that is our new reality. According to Spin, she’s been “terminated” from the group.

The trio was set to hit the road for the upcoming New Kids On The Block tour, but apparently the DJ had been dismissed earlier this year. In an IG post to her fans, Spin, real name Deidra Roper, revealed that she had been fired from the group she’s been with for the past three decades.

“I’m deeply saddened to share with all the #SaltnPepa and #Spinderella fans that I will not be performing on the #NKOTB Mixtape Tour. Despite my participation in promoting the tour and being highly publicized as one of the acts, in January 2019 I received a ‘termination’ email from #SaltnPepa excluding me from performances with the group. It was my expectation, after making that decision, that they would also take responsibility for sharing the news with the public and other affected parties. It has been months now with no mention. Out of love for my fans and a commitment to upholding a standard of professionalism, I’ve taken it upon myself to let everyone know. I refuse to participate in misleading fans, ticketholders, and others who — based on all the advertising — were anticipating seeing the iconic #SaltnPepa and #Spinderella trio. So, I’m making it clear now. Please know you will have the opportunity to see me this summer in many other projects and activities I’ll be participating in and I look forward to seeing you all then.” Thank you, Spinderella 😘

Not much is known about why the group has gone its separate ways, but Spin promises we’ll see how everything plays out on their new reality show “Ladies Night” on BET.
