WNBA star Angel Reese faces backlash, resulting in her deleting her Instagram.
The Chicago Sky forward has had an impressive run from starting a viral podcast in 2024 to her stunning style evolution. Although she's known for handling issues classily, it appears Reese has hit her wits end -- and understandably, if so.
After sharing her New Year's Eve outfit on Instagram, the WNBA star faced incessant backlash in the comments. The dress was none other than that viral dress circulating on TikTok (see below). Shortly after, Reese deleted her Instagram page. Since, headlines referring to her clothing as "ultra-revealing."

The move shows just how negatively shaming impacts women -- yet according to headlines, people still haven't learned. From the 2024 Olympics to the music industry and beyond, people are becoming more unapologetic with shaming women.
Unfortunately, it appears to be a holiday trend to shame women. SZA also recently responded to body shamers on Twitter highlighting a repulsive trend of people still commenting on women's bodies. In 2024, Keke Palmer was publicly shamed, as well.
In other news, the GOAT Simone Biles may not compete in the 208 LA Olympics. Here's why. Elsewhere, Bad Bunny releases a short film for his upcoming album.
