When a rookie enters a professional league, they often benefit from flying under the radar, being themselves, and settling in slowly. That hasn’t been the case with the rookie class of 2024 in the WNBA—especially Angel Reese. The 22-year-old has played a big role alongside Caitlin Clark, drawing eyeballs to the WNBA. Naturally, the bar was set higher for her from Day 1.

Reese has made it a point to live her best life regardless of all the hate from naysayers. Tonight, she was a part of the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, stealing the show no less with a stunning red dress. Now, to stand out in a room full of Victoria’s Secret Angels takes something.

This is a direct response Angel Reese had to a naysayer who had put out a tweet talking about her outfits and how they’re “cheapening her brand.”
Angel Reese acting like a girl with a nice body that don’t know what to do with it. These outfits cheapen her brand. Like she went on some other show and the outfit was so cheap and stupid. Like girl get it together man.

This tweet was prompted after ‘Bayou Barbie’ made her way to the United Center for a ‘Wild N Out’ live show. Several personalities such as rapper Joe Budden have often critiqued Reese as well, constantly comparing her to Caitlin. However, all this noise isn’t slowing her down, and she’s continuing to live her best life, the way she deems fit.
