*Hip-hop groupie Celina Powell spent the new year in a jail cell thanks to bounty hunters, TMZ reports, one of whom allegedly dropped the n-word during the bust.
Powell is famously known for accusing several rappers, including Offset and Snoop Dogg, of cheating with her and/or knocking her up. She’s also Aaron Carter’s ex.

Here’s how TMZ breaks down what happened during her arrest over the weekend:
The social media star was busted and taken into custody late Saturday night in Aurora, Colorado, where she was set to attend an event at a hookah lounge called Hubbly Bubbly Brewery. Law enforcement sources tell us bounty hunters staked out the parking lot after she posted online that she’d be hosting there.
When she showed up, they pounced … and part of it was caught on camera. While she was being taken in, however, William Ellenburg — one of the bounty hunters here, who’s white — hurled the n-word multiple times while trying to deny he was racist.
When the outlet asked him about it after seeing the video, William said he only used the n-word to prove he isn’t racist after Celina accused him making racist comments about his Black partner who was on the scene.
Celina, meanwhile, reportedly had $61,000 worth of outstanding bonds in her name, in and around the Aurora area — ranging from shoplifting, evading police and traffic violations, the report states.
She was turned over to police after midnight on Sunday and scheduled to appear in court Monday.
