The rumor mill is spinning once again for “Baddies” star Scotty and Zeus Network CEO Lemuel Plummer! Their latest social media interaction has fans raising eyebrows. Are they just friends, or is there something more sizzling between these two?
Late last night, fans of Baddies were sent into a frenzy when Scotty, one of the show’s breakout stars, dropped a fire photo on IG. She posed in front of the luxurious “NOBU ONE&ONLY CAPE TOWN” sign, dripping in a black, semi-sheer cutout dress, fur-trimmed high-heeled boots, and that signature long wavy hair in a playful half-updo.
But the real tea was in the comments.
None other than Lemuel Plummer, CEO of Zeus Network (and Scotty’s boss, let’s not forget), popped into the comments with red hearts and fire emojis. Scotty, never one to miss a moment, responded with a flirty: “Heyyy, I’m guessing you like the fit??” And then came the internet-breaking reply from Lemuel himself: “FIT BAE,” with more flaming heart emojis.
Naturally, fans started screenshotting, reposting, and speculating. This isn’t the first time the pair have been at the center of dating rumors, but the flirty exchange definitely added more fuel to the fire. It’s giving soft launch. It’s giving sneaky link tease. It’s giving… they know exactly what they’re doing.
Now, to be fair, Lemuel has addressed this before. He’s gone on record saying that he and Scotty are not in a long-term committed relationship. He also made it clear that he values keeping his personal life private and doesn’t plan on hitting the red carpet with her or anyone anytime soon.
Scotty’s journey with Zeus Network started when she took over for Christina Salgado in Season 2, with her friend Natalie Nunn introducing her. She was the first antagonist to step in as a ‘replacement’ for a current contestant on the show. Her initial season was somewhat challenging, as she experienced cold treatment from several women in the house, particularly from Chrisean Rock.
So, what’s the deal? Are these Instagram exchanges just friendly banter between a CEO and a star on his network? Or is there a little something-something brewing beneath the surface?
