‘Stop It:’ Porsha Williams’ Dancing at Photo Shoot Rubs Some Fans the Wrong Way

Porsha Williams isn’t letting pregnancy slow her down. During a recent photo shoot for her GoNaked hair company, Williams danced around in heels and a skin-tight white dress. But some were concerned that it’s too much for her baby girl.

Williams gyrated her hips and bounced up and down as her arms flailed around and her feet remained firmly planted on the ground.

“Mood: @GonakedHair Cyber Monday Sale starts NOW Code: (( CYBERMONDAY)) 🔥😂Link in bio 💃🏾 #rhoa #PJsMommy,” Williams captioned the Sunday, Nov. 25 Instagram video.

While some fans gassed up the mom-to-be, others felt she should be more careful considering her hospitalization earlier this month.

“Thats right. Work it porsha. A nice dance and a workout at the same time. And doing it white. Dig that!”

“Gone gurl show them u pregnant and still doing it.”

“Ohhhh look at those thighs and booty! Goooo mommy Porsha shake what ya pregnancy gave ya 😂 😂 ❤️😍😍😍”

“Get it Porsha and PJ😂😂😂😂😂”

“Girl stop all that bouncing around . 😍 keep yourself baby PJ safe. You already been in the hospital. (Sorry that’s the mother and grandmother in me speaking ).😘”

“Stop it please n sit the f down.. OMG.”

“sit down somewhere!!! you are about to be a mother!! let that go!”

“That’s not good to keep shaking your baby up like that I see you do this a lot.”

The responses even led to a debate among nurses in the comments section.

“Your gonna be back in the hospital…Just stop. Sit down somewhere. You bouncing that poor baby girl all around. STOP.”

“@tairymoody69 I’m a RN in LABOR and delivery. That baby is FINE. IF ANYTHING it will help her delivery go smoother. Women work out etc while pregnant. NOT BEING LAZY DURING A PREGNANCY IS BEST 💯”

“@divaat67 I’ma nurse also. She just got off bed rest. Concerned not anything else.”

Williams made headlines after her “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” co-star Nene Leakes posted a photo on Instagram letting fans know the expectant mom was in the hospital.

Leakes explained on “Watch What Happens Live”  Nov. 4 that Williams was “in a little pain” and a source told People magazine the star was “suffering some pregnancy complications due to large fibroids.”

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
