Tina Knowles Confronts Customer For Filming At Her Gumbo Stand
Footage circulating online shows Tina Knowles at her gumbo stand during the Houston Rodeo, where she appeared to get into a back-and-forth with a man who was recording nearby. According to the person filming, the man in red was live-streaming the stand, though it’s unclear what prompted him to start.

In public expecting privacy is crazy. If people liked that shrimp in flood water concoction she would be glad for the cameras.

Tina can argue with anyone she wants. She is running a business not a vlog. People are just sick in the mind and such opportunistic for content just to go viral. Small minds.

Whew, Tina Knowles’ gumbo has really been the talk of the town lately. From viral moments to real-life taste tests, folks can’t seem to stop discussing what she’s cooking up down at the Houston Rodeo. And now, another review is adding even more spice to the conversation. On Friday, Erica Banks pulled up to Tina’s booth and gave her official verdict via Instagram, sharing a clip titled “Ms. Tina’s Gumbo Review.” She told followers, “Now I did feel like I took 3 Don Julio shots after about 20 mins BUT — I give the gumbo a 9/10!” Erica didn’t hold back, calling it “good as f*ck.”
The buzz hasn’t just been online either. Despite a brief hiccup at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo—where her booth was temporarily shut down following a complaint—Tina quickly passed inspection and got back to serving. Since reopening, lines have stayed packed, with supporters and familiar faces like LeToya Luckett and Bun B pulling up to show love. Tina has even shared clips of happy customers enjoying her gumbo, proving that no matter the chatter, people are still outside and ready for a bowl.
