Early this month we shared the story about Dr. Dre’s oldest daughter who is homeless and living out of her car.
Just to recap – In an exclusive with the Daily Mail, Dr. Dre’s 38 yr old daughter shared that she has been living out of her rented SUV and her four children are with friends.
The Daily Mail shared that LaTanya Young works as a delivery driver for DoorDash and Uber Eats and as an assembler at a warehouse but claims that she can’t afford to secure an apartment in California and is living in a rental vehicle.
After the story broke, LaTanya started a GofundMe page, asking the public for $50,000 since she still is unable to get her father’s attention.
The page states:
“This fundraiser is to help Latanya and her four kids find a safe and stable home. She is currently working at DoorDash to keep afloat and these funds will be deeply appreciated. Thank you so much.”
According to AceShowbiz In a follow-up statement, LaTanya said there were fake GoFundMe pages launched in her name before, but this one is really hers.
“Hi this is LaTanya Young I have had issues with go fund me pages that had been created not by me. But, this page is really mines please if you donate please donate to this go fund me page only. The others are not me. Sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused,” so she wrote.
It’s unclear if it is for this particular reason or not, but LaTanya’s GoFundMe campaign has received very poor response. Three days after it was created, it has so far only gained $590 from 34 donors out of its $50,000 goal.
When she spoke with the Daily Mail she claimed that her millionaire father refused to help her. The single mother of four said she has been “reaching out to [her] dad for help” but “his lawyer has said that [her] dad doesn’t want to help [her] because [she’s] spoken about him in the press.”
