‘Not Them Yabba Dabba Doo Stompers’: Comedian Loni Love Has Folks Shook After Showing Off Her Struggle Toes

While most are shuttered in their homes sheltering in place to avoid “the ’rona,” there have been several cries for help and attention from men and women longing for the days they could get a haircut or just a simple manicure and pedicure.

Apparently comedian Loni Love is among those in need of blessed hands to hook her feet up after she showed everyone on the internet what type of talons she is working with.

“The Real” co-host kept it really real when she exposed her chipped red polish, some overgrown nails and one that was just about missing.

She even added fuel to the fire that was sure to start in her comments with the caption, “I’m going to bed over and take care of my tree monster feet … lawwwddddd..I ain’t the only one.”

“That pinky toe looked like it survived every piece of furniture and natural disaster known to man😂,” commented one person after taking in the unwarranted sight.

“Some stuff y’all got to keep to y’all selves!!😩😩😂😂,” wrote another.

“She need to call DOCTOR FOOT!!”

“Not them yabba dabba doo stompers😂”

Love even asked fans to put their feet on blast, something that many on social were absolutely not here for.

“this the worst challenge ever😭”

“I will not be accepting no challenge as such😂”

“I Do Not Wanna Be Seeing Feet All Down My Timeline😂😂”

When asked point blank, “Ummm loni where is your pinky nail?” The “Soul Plane” cast member simply responded, “I don’t have one!!”

Honestly, at this point, an explanation is not needed.

“All the toes: we need to get done. Pinky toe: . (Period)”

“Please throw in the TILE! Toe in the tile! 😩”

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.
