Alexis Skyy said she’s put on a few pounds since sheltering in place, but her fans sure aren’t complaining. In fact, they love the slight weight gain, based on what they’re expressing in response to an Instagram video Skyy shared on Thursday, April 2. In it, she’s wearing a waist trainer and skimpy shorts.

“I’ve been quarantining and eating up a storm. I literally gained like seven pounds being in this house,” she told her 3.9 million followers.

But Skyy said because of the waist trainer, she’s able to keep a slim waist with her “booty still big.” She also turns around and shows her backside to the camera twice.

On top of that, Skyy removes her waist trainer toward the end of the clip and shows her bare stomach, which she calls “nice and snatched.”

The clip has been watched more than 252,000 times and in the over 1,200 comments, people said they liked the added weight gain, as well as everything else.

“Girl you are amazing regardless 🏆,” wrote one of her followers.

“That booty tho,” another person chimed in.

“It looks better to međŸ’™đŸ”„đŸ’™,” a third person wrote.

There were also people who commented on Skyy’s overall appearance.

“No makeup know u fine in real life đŸ’Ș🏿💯,” one of her fans stated.

But on the flip side, some said it wasn’t necessary for Skyy to show certain parts of her body.

“What does the waist trainer have to do with you showing your butt? 🙄😂” one women asked.

At one point, Skyy said she had the waist trainer on for three hours before she took it off and showed her stomach. But her fans called that a lie mainly — because no perspiration or lines showed on her belly.

“2 hours & no sweat marks…yeah right😂,” one person wrote.

Independent journalism still matters.

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.
