The plot thickens.

Numerous celebs took to Twitter yesterday to react to the grisly and horrific news that VH1's Hit the Floor star Stephanie Moseley is dead in an apparent murder-suicide with rapper Earl Hayes, and now new details have emerged that involve boxing champion Floyd Mayweather.

As we previously reported, Hayes was once signed to the professional boxer's record label, Philthy Rich Records, but a source tells E! News that Mayweather was FaceTiming with Hayes when the rapper killed his wife, and then himself, adding that Floyd and Earl were close friends.

TMZ, who first reported the story, say Floyd "acknowledges he was a witness and heard everything," adding that the athlete is "in shock and is having extreme difficulty dealing with the fact that he witnessed a horrifying murder/suicide."

According to KTLA, officers were called to the scene around 7:30 a.m. by a neighbor who said they heard a woman screaming as well as almost a dozen gunshots. When LAPD arrived at the apartment, officers reportedly found a back bedroom door shut and when they approached, they heard two more gunshots.

A SWAT team then entered the bedroom to find two bodies inside.

Moseley had been a choreographer and dancer in The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn—Part 1, Sparkle and Mirror Mirror. She had also been in Hellcats, was a backup dancer for Britney Spears, Chris Brown and several other stars.
