“Love And Hip Hop: Hollywood” star Alexis Skyy gave many of her fans a good laugh on Thursday, Oct. 15, after the 26-year-old reality star shared her throwback yearbook photo.

Skyy, who was wearing a black senior drape complemented with hoop earrings, captioned the Oct. 15 upload, “Young lex.”Although no other information was disclosed regarding the location, or the year of when the picture was taken, that didn’t stop many fans from throwing shade at the reality star’s former look before fame and fortune.

One fan responded in relation to the young star’s yearbook caption, “Nothing is impossible the word itself says I’m possible,” which was originally coined by actress Aubrey Hepburn. “She already know she was going to be famous 1 day lol,” the social media user wrote.

Skyy has come a long way in looks and in life. She is known for sharing these looks, her physical features especially, with followers through jaw-dropping bikini shots that show off her hourglass figure. In September, the “LHH: LA” alum wore a designer multicolored two-piece string bikini with turquoise scandals and a matching bag. She captioned the Sept. 22 post that generated 155,000 likes, “She only wear pucci to swim 😘.”

A mother of one, the entrepreneur welcomed her 2-year-old daughter Alaiya Grace Maxwell in 2018 with her ex, “Trap Queen” rapper Fetty Wap. The model delivered her daughter three months prior to her expected date. She revealed in an Instagram photo that she was being monitored heavily because of the early labor. She captioned the post, “They’re gonna have me in the hospital for a long time and I just pray that everything do good. She’s okay, she’s fine.” Skyy underwent a C-section and gave birth to her baby girl, who was born weighing just over 1 pound according to US magazine.

Despite the ridicule, the beefs and the legal drama Alexis may have faced in the past, she seems to find her way of the darkness by solely focusing on two things, making money and taking care of her daughter.


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.
