‘Don’t Play With Me’: Alexis Skyy Heats Up the ’Gram With Sexy ‘Drip’ Pic

Alexis Skyy of “Love & Hip-Hop” fame has caused a major fuss on Instagram after sharing a new image of herself.

The picture, posted Sunday, is of the 25-year-old dressed in black, and it shows off her legs, as well as the large tattoo she has near one ankle. Skyy is also rocking black heels in the pic and a pricey looking watch.

But it’s just not the outfit people commented on, it was the look she gave in the photo, which some might say falls somewhere in between a sultry gaze and a straight-up death stare.

“Don’t play with me 😆,” wrote Skyy in the caption.

Her followers then weighed in, and many of their comments piggybacked off the words she used.

“I’ll play with you anytime,” someone wrote.

“I’m not gonna play with you at all 😂💕💋💘❤️😘😍😘 I love you!” wrote a second person.

But others didn’t try to use wit in their comment, they simply expressed their admiration for the New York native.

“It’s hard not to look at u 🌹” one of her followers wrote.

And others said they loved how Skyy’s makeup looked in the photo.

“The lighting on this makeup is GOALS 😍,” a woman commented.

The reality star also shared a second image of herself in the same outfit, where viewers can get a clearer shot of the watch.

“I got drip on the floor it’s getting nasty,” Skyy captioned that photo.

And just like the other pic in the black outfit, words like “beautiful” and “bomb” were used in the comments. Others, meanwhile, referred to Skyy as their “future baby mama,” and one guy said he absolutely needs her.

“Lemme have you 😫😫,” that guy wrote.

That particular photo scored over 188,000 likes in a day, and the other shot in the black outfit was liked 73,000 times.

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.
