Social Media Clowns Angela Simmons ‘Struggle’ Moves: ‘Broke Down Becky’

Growing Up Hip Hop” star Angela Simmons seems to possess a lot of talents, but according to fans, dancing doesn’t appear to be one of them.

Simmons is currently enjoying her vacation in Barbados and seems to be living her best life. She took to her Instagram account on Feb. 7 and shared a video of she and her friend enjoying their time on a speed boat. In the video, rapper Drake’s “In My Feelings” song is playing in the background when the reality star attempts to bust some moves.

Simmons began “milly rocking” after trying to perform the dance moves to the “In My Feelings” challenge. In the same post, but different video, she began dancing to Davido’s “Fall” by wavering her legs and arms.

“The water and boats make me ☺️😍 @itskatd 😭 lol,” Simmons wrote in her caption. “#IPlayAllDay #Boat2OfTheDay #SpeedBoat #CantDanceDontCare.”

Fans appeared to agree with Simmons’ “can’t dance” hashtag in her caption and roasted her “struggle moves.”

“I lovvvve you Anggg but stop dancing 🤣,” a fan joked.

” Did you try to milly 😭 you cant dance for s–t! You gotta take this L ang 😂.”

“The struggle moves are real 😂 issa a white girl in there when u dance 😂 #brokedownbecky.”

One fan gushed over how carefree the 31-year-old appears to be.

“I love the fact that you can’t dance well… but you don’t give a damn❣️ .”

Simmons may not be the most skilled in dancing, but she does wear many other hats including fashion designing, acting and advocating for mental and physical health.

The “GUHH” star has always felt strongly about empowering women. In September, she and her team launched social campaign “Pressure Makes Diamonds” which urges teenagers and young women to feel confident within themselves. Simmons told Black Enterprise at the time, that the purpose of the campaign was to encourage a healthier lifestyle -physically, emotionally and mentally.

“The whole idea of this campaign and the mission just came from [my] life and the pressures that I’ve been through,” Simmons said. She also has started the program “Built Not Built” which encourages women to work hard for the life goals they want to achieve.

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. 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, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up 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.
