Draya's Getting Roasted For Her Fried Chicken, But It's NOT Why You Think

"I know you guys get a kick outta roasting my food. Sorry to kill the fun."

Draya Michele is constantly coming under heat for her so-called “struggle plates,” but this time her fried chicken looked TOO good to be true. The Mint Swim CEO and former Basketball Wives Star blogs about her nutrition and fitness on a separate Instagram account, @dosesofdraya, and shares her home-cooked meals often. Normally, her plates are trolled for presentation.

However, “Fried Chicken Gate” totally became a thing this weekend after her shot of a crispy thigh and drumstick were called out for being Popeye’s chicken. Internet trolls swore Draya tried to pass off Popeye’s for her own, so after getting dragged, she posted a video clip of the chicken frying to silence the haters along with a grade A clapback.

What do you think? Is Draya’s fried chicken the real deal, or do think Popeye’s is responsible?
