Shalana Jones-Hunter, known famously as Tokyo Toni, is an American TV personality. She is the mother of model/entrepreneur Blac Chyna. As popular as her daughter would go on to be, Tokyo Toni is no stranger to the spotlight and garnering controversy.

These are seven facts about Tokyo Toni:

7. She is the mother of Blac Chyna

Shalana is the mother of model and entrepreneur Blac Chyna. Born of Shalana’s relationship with Eric Holland, Blac Chyna was born Angela Renée White on May 11, 1988.

Blac Chyna started out as a stripper, hitting the joints around the Maryland area before finding a gig as a model. Capitalizing on her success, she transitioned to entrepreneurship and became a household name for her relationships with rapper Tyga and TV personality Rob Kardashian.

6. Her Ex-Husband and Blac Chyna’s Father is a Felon

Shalana’s ex-husband, and the man with whom she would go on to have a child who grew up to be Blac Chyna, Eric Holland, is a notorious felon.

The 53-year-old is known around Maryland as a notorious felon with a laundry list of offenses including assault and battery, grand larceny, resisting arrest, and vehicular offenses.

Eric is also a philanderer who has fathered numerous children besides Blac Chyna with multiple women. It is believed that Blac Chyna has at least two half-brothers and nine half-sisters.

5. Ex-Husband, Marcellus Hunter, filed a Restraining Order Against Her 

As notorious as her ex-husband Eric Holland is for his criminal offenses, Tokyo Toni has not been exempt from crimes: she has her own criminal history.

Most famously, Shalana was hit with a restraining order by her on-again-off-again husband, Marcellus Hunter, in July 2013. The order was filed when Shalana allegedly threatened physical violence against Hunter. News broke of the restraining order in March 2016 when Hunter said in a statement with Radar Online,

“Shalana is violent when angry. She often tries to start a physical altercation. I have hundreds of texts [threatening] bodily harm, threats to come to my job, and get me fired. Threats to ‘crack my head open’ if I return to my home. Threats to leave me in a landfill. I want the threats to stop. I want her out of my home…She has already cut up my clothes!”
