Who is Lastonia Leviston? Rick Ross' ex reveals she had suicidal thoughts after 50 Cent leaked her tape

Lastonia Leviston, rapper Rick Ross's ex and the mother of his daughter Toie, recently opened up about the aftermath of having her s*x tape leaked during the feud between Ross and 50 Cent in the 2000s.

Leviston's thoughts about the topic aired on Netflix's new reality show, W.A.G.s to Riches, which premiered on January 22. The show explores the lives of women in high-profile relationships with celebrities and athletes.

Lastonia Leviston is the founder and owner of the fashion boutique Instatique in Miami, where she currently lives. She and Ross are no longer dating, with Leviston revealing they broke up in 2003, a year after their daughter was born.

During the show's first episode, Lastonia Leviston opened up about the experience of her leaked tape to her co-star Alexis Welch Stoudemire. She explained that she felt suicidal after 50 Cent allegedly leaked her s*x tape with her then-boyfriend, Maurice Murray, during his beef with Ross in 2009.

"In that second my whole life changed. I became suicidal. I didn’t want to live anymore. I felt like I was damaged goods. Like no man would ever love me again. I felt like I had let my kids down tremendously. I know people in the group could be looking at me differently, all because I was trying to show a man how much I loved him," Leviston said.

For the unversed, 50 Cent reportedly uploaded a 13-minute tape of Lastonia Leviston and Murray being intimate during the height of his beef with Rick Ross. Leviston later sued 50 Cent in 2010 for allegedly leaking the s*x tape, claiming 50 Cent bought it from Murray.

However, the rapper claimed Murray gave him the tape as revenge after Leviston found out he was cheating on her and told the other woman. Leviston later won the suit in 2015, with the court ordering 50 Cent to pay her $5 million.
