Angela Simmons Shows Off Her Figure in Trendy Fashion Look: ‘Spring is Not Ready for You’

Reality television personality Angela Simmons is making waves again with her curvaceous physique.

Simmons, the daughter of DJ Rev Run of Run DMC, eventually learned to embrace her body image and prides herself in helping other women do the same. She’s not afraid to flaunt her shapeliness, and that’s exactly what she did earlier this week.

The 31-year-old mother took to Instagram on Wednesday with a fashion post of herself. She rocked a pair of distressed sky blue jeans, a gray T-shirt with a pink-and-blue design motif, and a pink, cropped moto jacket. She added a pair of mauve Red Bottom heels to complete her look and opted for natural makeup beat. She also went for “easy breezy curls.”

Simmons wrote in her caption, “Layered look by @qlovebug #yummyextensions #yummygirl.”

Fans fawned over the celeb’s fashion-forward look, but it was her curve-hugging bottoms that most caught their attention.

“Damn girl those jeans fittin you like a glove 😙😙 She sexy in her pastel!”

“You killed. Spring is not ready for you 🔥 @angelasimmons love the color blocking u do great combo.”

“Cotton candy and taffy, sweet-n-sexy 🍬🍭🍫 them jeans showing your thickness 🤤.”

“Thick and sexy @angelasimmons cotton Candy 😋 lookin delicious 🤤. I love me some you 😘.”

“Damn you bad! Love those jeans u gotta a Goddess of some type 🙌🏿.”

Simmons was not always the confident woman that fans now see. She learned to embrace her curves during her late teens after suffering from body-image issues while starring on MTV’s “Run’s House.”
She also perceived herself as “fat” compared to her sister Vanessa Simmons and their brother JoJo Simmons, who are both naturally slim.

“Growing up, like, honestly speaking, when I was younger, I grew up kind of like thicker.” She told “The Breakfast Club” radio show during an interview in June 2018. “I didn’t embrace my curves because I was so young. … I had body issues. … I was concerned that I was fat. I was, like, ‘I just feel fat.’ I always had that conversation. I would cry about it. And I would feel like everyone around me was smaller. I just didn’t get it.”

Around “19 or 18″ the “GUHH” star said she learned to be more in control of her body and began working out and eating healthy.

When asked if she still deals with low self-esteem, she assured folks she doesn’t and answered, “I’m good!”

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.
