Angel Reeseās Instagram account was suddenly deactivated on Thursday, a day after she faced criticism over her New Yearās Day outfit, which many fans labeled as ārevealing.ā
The Chicago Sky forward appeared to have taken down her account after she made her New Year post showcasing her in a cut-out animal-print dress with a tulle halter top.
The posts went on to spark online criticism from lots of fans who were displeased with her outfit and deemed it ātoo revealing.ā
The posts remained visible on her TikTok account as of Thursday.
However, Angel Reeseās Instagram handle (@angelreese5) was no longer accessible, and it left fans speculating about what really led to that action.
āWhat yāall done did to my girl Angel Reese to make her deactivate her Instagram?ā one user wrote on X.
Others stood behind her despite the backlash and questioned the point of fans criticizing the WNBA starās outfit preference.
āWhy are yall mad at Angel Reese for looking good as fuck? Lmaoā, one user wrote on X.
āAngel Reese bothers people because she doesnāt fit the stereotypical tomboy dressed basketball players. She literally isnāt doing anything but having media visibility and being cute dressed like a normal woman her ageā, another said.
āMy whole thing with Angel Reese is what yāall got against her being a bad bitch?? Like are you niggas geigh?? Why yāall hate her for that? Lmaoā, a third stated.
The 22-year-old WNBA All-Star is yet to comment publicly on the deactivation, and it remains unclear how Reese celebrated the New Year.
Just last week, Reese shared her ambitious goals for 2025 in a video where she unveiled her 2024 vision board. One of her biggest aspirations is to become a billionaire.
āIām not a billionaire yet, but weāre still working on that. My mind is on billions, so Iām still on that,ā she said.
