‘Lil Cynthia’: Fans Claim Noelle Robinson Looks Like Her Mother Cynthia Bailey

One thing for certain is that Noelle Robinson is the spitting image of her mother Cynthia Bailey, according to fans. On Wednesday, May 6, Robinson lit up the internet by posting a steamy photo on Instagram. The 20-year-old Robinson flaunted her curves, causing fans to believe that she got her modelesque looks from her mama.

Donning a black strapless bodycon dress, the model stood beside a black Mercedes-Benz to strike her pose. To add a bit of bling to her simple outfit, she sported a pair of clear sunglasses and large silver hoop earrings. Her hair, which was pulled back into a low ponytail, was ombréd from black to red. Robinson hinted in her caption that she was feeling her look. She wrote, “a lil spicy 💋🥵.”

Bailey’s daughter appeared to be texting during the time her photo was taken. The young star received over 20,000 positive reactions, with many fans expressing that she was her mother’s clone.

Bailey, a reality star of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta,” posted a photo on Instagram at the beginning of the year that showed her modeling in her early 20s. Fans mistakenly thought the young Bailey was her daughter. Mimicking Bailey’s career, Robinson signed with Major Model Management in 2018. The agency, which is located in New York, helped Robinson land a spot on the runway during the 2018 New York Fashion Week.

Although Robinson works with an agency located on the East Coast, she currently resides on the West Coast, where she lives with Mike Hill, Bailey’s fiancé, in California. She moved to the City of Angels last year to advance her modeling and 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.
