‘You Know You Lying’: Fans Call Foul After Bow Wow Claims He Doesn’t Want Angela Simmons

Fans of rapper Bow Wow don’t know who he is trying to fool by playing it cool about his affinity for Angela Simmons.

Whether Bow Wow is serving as his friend’s photographer or recording TikToks with Simmons, there is no denying his fans want things to be more than platonic between the duo.

Many may recall that Bow Wow made social media gold with the “Bow Wow challenge,” essentially lying or joking about what you have going on in your life. Flash forward and now fans can’t help but to troll him after his attempt to act as if he is uninterested in a happily ever after with Simmons.

The rapper shared a clip from “Growing Up Hip Hop” where Simmons reveals that she never lost any love for the rapper, despite their brief dating history when they were younger.

In the video she says, ” Me and Bow, I never like lost any love for him. Like, I, I couldn’t, we had been through too much.”

Fans chomping at the bit to tell Bow Wow to get his lady while the love is still there spared no comments.

“I love them together frl frl [for real, for real] they so cute to me 😘😘❤️❤️”

“Y’all chemistry is beautiful and either it is or it isn’t!! 🌹”

“Please get married and have a family… Y’all are amazing together,” wrote one person. Taking full advantage of the opportunity to derail the comment trend, the rapper responded, “I don’t want all that.”

Fans and followers swooped right in to call the rapper out for telling an alleged tall tale.

“You know you lying 😂😂😂,” commented one person.

“Hey shad you know that you want Angela and to get married”

“It’s clear y’all like each other y’all ain’t fooling nobody”

“The lie detector determines that was a lie.”

As hopeful as fans may be, only Simmons and the “Shortie Like Mine” rapper know if crossing the line is the best move for their friendship that has lasted more than a decade.

“The brother in love can’t tell me you not you are haha”

“why can’t they just be together already…WHY😩”

“Alright now .. y’all just been teasing us.. just settle down, be a power couple.. I know y’all tired of us saying this”

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.
