At the end of the summer, model Rosa Acosta was hosting a series of shows for Heineken of which Wale was the featured performer. She’d previously listed Wale as one of her favorite artists in interviews prior, and the two got along without incident for multiple shows. When the tour of sorts hit D.C., things went south for the covergirl and the rapper. Rosa tweeted about Wale’s failed attempt to go into the crowd and Wale didn’t like the tone of her tweet. He proceeded to send a series of tweets taking shots at Rosa, saying some very not-so-nice things. Rosa didn’t respond directly (aka, didn’t @ him or drop his name) but laughed it off and proceeded about her business. When Wale appeared on Funk Flex’s show a couple months later to promote his album “Ambition,” he apologized to the Dominican beauty and the ball was then in her court. She recently got wind of the apology and had a response of her own. Check out what she had to say below.

In an interview with La Creme Nation, Rosa said the following:

LCN: As you know, I follow you… I want to know; what the hell happened between you and Wale? Emotions were touched but you never really addressed the jabs he threw at you on twitter to avoid conflict & “twitter beef” Is everything cool between you two?
ROSA: I love when people talk about me but I don’t talk about them. It only shows how insignificant they are to me but how important I am to them. But there is this misconception about rappers and males in general that they don’t have feelings or cry and I thought it was very nice from him to show otherwise. He sounded really cute crying all over twitter and interviews. God bless him…

LCN: Wow, ironically I just got word that Wale JUST apologized for the twitter beef with you on Funk Master Flex Show while promoting his album Ambition on Hot 97…
ROSA: I haven’t heard that interview and won’t bother in doing that because I DON’T need an apology from him. He is insignificant to me. I wish him the best and may God bless him. From the very beginning I could be responding to him in the same immature, disrespectful way he did. But I prefer to sit, watch, and laugh at the whole thing. That is if I actually had the time to sit and watch. I am too busy living my life to care about stupidity.
