‘Come Through Six Pack’: Fans Fall In Love with Tanya Sam’s Figure

While most people have been spending their shelter-in-place lives eating snacks and drinking wine, Tanya Sam appears to be maintaining her figure. The cast member of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” proved on Tuesday, May 19, that her physique has not suffered during her stay-at-home period.

Sam posted a photo on Instagram that showed her wearing a two-piece multicolored pants set. Standing in front of a patterned gray wall, the native of Toronto struck her pose by putting one hand in her hair as the other laid by her side. Sam, a former nurse, wore a crop top and harem pants, causing her washboard abs to glisten in the photo. Her simple garment was much different than the elaborate styles she wore prior to the pandemic. Sam implied in her caption that her drastic wardrobe change caused her to miss getting dolled up.

She wrote: “I don’t want to go back to wearing “real” clothes, high heels, doing hair and makeup 💄 but I then I look back at pictures from 𝘉.𝘊. (𝘉𝘦𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘊𝘖𝘝𝘐𝘋) and think, man I was a baddie, and I miss dressing up…..🔥💃🏽.” Some people resonated with her message and shared that they also missed donning formal wear. However, a slew of fans claimed Sam’s tight midsection captured their attention, indicating that they loved her dress-down apparel the most.

“Come through six pack! 🔥🖤🔥.”

“Okayyyy bawdy 😍.”

“Look at them abs and that body..🔥❤️.”

“Bawdy🙌🏾🙌🏾.”

“Yessssss! Come thru body🔥❤️.”

“👌🏿And you are sizzling 🔥Hott mam.”

Sam has documented a few of her workout routines on social media. Over the weekend, the reality star rode her indoor bicycle in an effort to stay in shape amid the COVID-19 crisis.

At the beginning of April, she ran three miles in 30 minutes while wearing a face mask. She explained in an Instagram post that she was sporting protective gear to help protect her from spreading the disease. On her website, the tech pro describes herself as an avid runner, workout queen, and spin cyclist.

Still independent.

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.
