‘Well Done Queen’: Tia Mowry Bodies the ‘I’m So Pretty Challenge’

Tia Mowry is letting her fans see just how pretty she is. She posted a short TikTok video on Instagram of her doing the “I’m So Pretty” TikTok Challenge. The challenge requires participants to tap on the beat of the “So Pretty” song, which is sang by Reyanna Maria, until she starts rapping. Once she starts to rap, that’s when the participant goes from looking bummy to looking amazing.

Mowry initially appeared on camera with a fresh face, and her hair slicked back in an afro while wearing a purple hoodie. After her hand pulls away from the camera on the last beat drop, Mowry has now switched into a more glammed-up look.

Her hair is then styled in a beautiful updo with some hair added for her ponytail. Her eyes looked to have a smoky look to them while her lips were painted a nude color. For her outfit, she is wearing a white top and what looks to be a pair of jeans, with gold bracelets and earrings added as her accessories.

Most of Mowry’s fans know that she is no stranger to being in front of the camera, so it was no surprise that she “Had fun with this one! #beforeandafter #protectivestyles #naturalhair.”

“Tia you have mastered these Tik Toks!!! You so Gorg💜💜💜💜,” wrote one fan in the comments section. The 42-year-old actress has been uploading a few TikTok videos here and there of her dancing, doing voiceovers, and using some the effects of TikTok.

“Yessss Med School I just love ya 🤎🤎,” said another fan addressing Mowry as her character from the CW series “The Game.”

One fan thought Mowry did such a good job with this TikTok trend that he suggested she do another one, “Beautiful now the silhouette challenge 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾,” he wrote.

Although it may be unlikely that Mowry will do the sexy “Silhouette Challenge,” all one can do is hope.

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.
