‘Keyoncè In Full Effect’: Kenya Moore’s Blonde Tresses Cause a Commotion In the Star’s Comments Section, Fans Praise the New Look

Kenya Moore‘s ombre golden brown tresses stopped her fans in their tracks on Jan. 11 when she shared a snapshot of her look.

The reality star from “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” wore a peach low-cut blouse set off by gold accessories and a full face flashing a thousand-watt smile. The 49-year-old captioned the post, “Peachy 👑.” Droves of fans were jubilated over Moore’s latest look.

“Keyoncè in full effect 🔥.”

“Yasssss it’s the beauty for me 🤩🤩.”

“@thekenyamoore your getting your Glow back Queen 👑.”

“Omgosh!!! So gorgeous. You can do no wrong loving the color on you 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥.”

One fan referenced a scene where Moore said her iconic line in response to an argument with her co-star Porsha Williams: “Gone with the Wind FABULOUS💃🏻.”

Days later, the reality star uploaded a recording on her Instagram story showcasing her signature black wavy locks as she seductively gazed into the camera. Although Moore’s beauty was undeniable, many mentioned how her shady personality affects her good looks. One expressed that the former beauty queen had a terrible attitude: “Beautiful woman with a janky attitude.”

Another commented on their dislike for Moore: “Am I the only one who doesn’t like Kenya? 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔”

An Instagram user admitted how disappointing it was to see someone as beautiful as Moore be cruel to other people. “Sad someone so beautiful is the ugliest person on the inside. Just miserable and evil.”

Moore’s recent backlash occurred after the “RHOA” cast member bashed her co-star Williams — during Cynthia Bailey’s engagement party — over a Black Lives Matter event where she was uninvited by Williams’s sister, Lauren.

Despite receiving criticism for making Bailey’s engagement party about her past issues, Moore took to Instagram to reminisce over the night she planned for the then bride-to-be. She said, “I cried again tonight. This is one classy woman who has a giant heart. I’m so happy for you and Magic Mike 😜 I’m so happy that you were happy! What God has joined together let no man separate Mark 10:9.”

Moore continued by thanking her event planner, which is a black-owned company. She also jokingly thanked President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris after they were rumored to be attending the party.

Thank you to @eventsbymonet who pulled off an incredible feat within a short timeframe and all the incredible #blackownedbusiness that participated in this joyous occasion. And thank you @kandi, and a special shout out to @joebiden and @kamalaharris for almost making an appearance 😂#RHOA.”

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.
