Actor and dancer Stephanie Moseley, who was known for cheerleading comedy "Hellcats" and VH1 dance drama "Hit the Floor," was shot by her husband, rapper Earl Hayes, on December 8, 2014. As The Wrap reported, LAPD and a SWAT team were called to an apartment building after gunshots were heard. The couple was found dead inside. Hayes, who had been a business associate of boxer Floyd Mayweather, Jr., died by suicide. 50 Cent later claimed that Mayweather had been directly involved in the couple's split and Moseley's murder. "Tell everybody why you was on FaceTime when he killed Stephanie and himself. Because he was confronting you about f***ing his wife," he wrote in a now-deleted Instagram post in July 2018.
Following Moseley's death, stars like Rihanna, Ashley Tisdale, and Jennifer Lopez expressed their heartbreak. Eva Marcille, who was a close friend, told ET, "Stephanie was an absolute angel. She really was, to everybody she's ever met."
"We are incredibly saddened to hear the news of the passing of Stephanie Moseley," VH1 declared in a statement to The Wrap at the time, paying tribute to her as a member of the "Hit The Floor" family and sending their condolences to her loved ones. "She was just a huge light for us — a wonderful person," one executive producer told ET, insisting that Mosely should be remembered for how she lived her life rather than her tragic death.
