‘My Heart Just Melted’: Fans Go Gaga Over Alexis Skyy’s 2-Year-Old Daughter Singing In This Cute Video

Alexis Skyy‘s daughter Alaiya Grace is just too cute for words!

The “Love and Hip Hop: Atlanta” star hopped on Instagram Tuesday, Aug. 18, and posted an adorable video of her 2-year-old daughter singing. Skyy said the toddler took her phone and recorded her vocals while the model was sound asleep.

In the now-deleted IG video, baby Alaiya appeared to sang “Baa Baa Black Sheep” while recording a video of their ceiling. Skyy gushed over the post and wrote, “Omg look what I found in my phone I was dead sleep and she took my phone to record 😂😂.”

Fans bubbled over Skyy’s video and how adorable baby Alaiya sounded.

“Aww my heart just melted!” a fan wrote. “She is so adorable Alexis 😍💕.”

“OMG look at her talkin up a storm! He little voice is too cute,” said another.

One IG user commented, “Baa baa black sheep awww I can’t she is adorbs.”

It’s unclear why Skyy deleted the video from her page, but it could’ve had something to do with online trolls.

Skyy has encountered many online trolls who’ve said cruel things about her daughter, a special needs child. The model has deemed detractors “disgusting” for speaking ill about her child.

“I don’t really let the Internet get to me,” Skyy told Hollywood Unlocked in May. “At first, it did bother me but I just learned to kind of just block it out because it’s disgusting, she’s a baby. If you’re that evil to talk about a kid or what I went through, you’re just an evil person. So I just learned to just tune that part out.”

Despite the nasty comments she receives, Skyy continues to post heartwarming pictures and videos of her daughter.

In a June 28 Instagram post, the 26-year-old mother of one shared a darling post of herself waking up to baby Alaiya in bed. She wrote in her caption at the time, “Wow I’m so blessed 💕.”

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.
