In the interview, Lexis tearfully tells the news site that the Johnson’s family has started a GoFundMe, but has come up way short of the $20k goal they set to properly bury him. This comes as a shock to her and once again proves all the “fake love.” While she says she doesn’t expect anything from anyone, Lexis would absolutely appreciate any donations friends or fans of AJ could contribute. She told the news site, that if people aren’t able to come through, she’ll probably cremate him.
Fellow comedian Michael Blackson has also called on fans to donate to the family’s GoFundMe so Johnson can have a proper home going service.
