‘Them Big Ol Feet’: Sky Days’ Apparent Vacation Post Derails After Fans Poke Fun at Her Feet

Sky Days appears to be unfazed by the pandemic that is affecting millions of lives around the world. Days, a former cast member of “Black Ink Crew,” was seemingly soaking up the sun and apparently getting some much-needed rest.

On March 12, the 36-year-old model uploaded a photo of herself kicking it on a chaise lounge in a one-piece swimsuit, and fans were not feeling the fact that she seemed to be on vacation.

Days served some looks at what appeared to be a poolside setting and seemingly did not come to play in her swim attire. Her vacation hairstyle consisted of long black feed-in braids that flowed down her back. The reality star sat on the long outdoor chair with her blue beach towel and flaunted her seemingly perfect body for the ‘Gram.

The model’s multicolored tattoos were on full display, and she told fans her reasoning for taking or wanting a trip. She implied the flights were cheap, so it was time for her to get away. “Lookin @ the News vs. The Flights… ✌🏽🇧🇸,” she said in the caption to her post.

Days’ social media followers did not think the reality star made the best choice in planning her spring trip and took to Instagram to blast her for her appearance.

“Them big ol’ feet 😂😂😂,” one user commented.

A second fan wrote, “Can’t be lookin’ at the news dressed like that with this virus out🤦🏾.”

“U know what they say bout them big feet chicks,” a third user said.

“Everything was perfect til I seen the FEET 😑👎🏽,” a fourth fan wrote.

A fifth user said, “And she got a corn 🤣🤣🤣🤣.”

“Them feet big lol 😂😂😂,” a sixth jokingly said.

Days has been receiving a lot of backlash from her fans since the Feb. 26 premiere of “Black Ink Crew.” The episode depicted Days and her 19-year-old son Dessalines getting into a heated argument after Days told him that she and his father never wanted him and should have aborted him. Since the blowout, Days has been suspended from production and is making plans to move to Los Angeles to pursue her acting career.

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.
