‘Two Beauties’: Malaysia Pargo’s Pic With ‘Bestie’ Bambi Leaves Fans Swooning

When “Basketball Wives” star Malaysia Pargo posted a photo of herself and best friend Bambi of “Love and Hip Hop: Atlanta” on Saturday, Dec. 21, it got plenty of attention.

And many said they not only found the two women beautiful, but they love their friendship.

The photo shows the two reality stars in a close-up shot looking right at the camera.

Pargo is wearing a light-colored denim jacket in the pic with a pink shirt underneath, and Bambi — who shared a similar photo to her Instagram page — looks to be rocking a black and tan jacket.

Pargo’s post racked up 63,000 likes so far, with almost 400 comments, while the photo Bambi shared received a little over 24,000 likes and over 150 comments.

Underneath Pargo’s post, someone wrote the word “Besties” to describe the two ladies, and another used the word “Baddies,” while a third person wrote “Two beauties.”

And there were longer, wordier comments left as well.

“My girls sitting looking like some baby doll love it,” someone wrote underneath Pargo’s post.

“It’s good to see something real! #friends,” another Instagram user stated. “I’m here for the return of y’all 2 on tv. I mean whenever y’all ready 😆 🤗.”

“Ya’ll look like ya’ll are about to have some fun😊,” a third person chimed in.

It’s clear that Pargo is having a pretty good month as far as the social media compliments go, because she wowed many after sharing a photo of herself wearing long straight hair on Dec. 19.

And the basketball wife caused an equal amount of fuss when she uploaded a picture of herself sporting a T-shirt that read, “Always chase the Bag, never the Boy.”

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.
