‘She Has Your Whole Face’: Kandi Burruss and Her ‘Feisty’ Youngest Child Blaze Leaves Fans Seeing Double

Kandi Burruss had fans insisting that her 1-year-old daughter Blaze Tucker was the singer’s miniature clone on Thursday, June 3, after a snapshot of the pair smiling and posing posted to social media. In the post, Burruss mentioned how the toddler was considered the feistier one out of the entire family. She wrote, “My ❤️! The feisty one of the bunch. @blazetucker.”

There have been a number of occasions where people have pointed out that Tucker was the spitting image of the Xscape singer. One moment, in particular, occurred in March after Burruss shared a throwback image of herself alongside music producer Dallas Austin and Christina Aguilera in the recording studio as she captioned the photo, “#TBT when music was life! Hanging out in the studio with @dallasaustins & @xtina.”

While most of Burruss’ followers expressed how strong the physical resemblance between the mother-daughter duo is, one brought up how Tucker favored everyone in the family, from her parents to her siblings. 

“She has your whole face! 😍.”

“Getting so big. THAT IS YOUR TWIN KANDI😍😍😍.”

“She looks just like you 😍😍😍.”

“Wow y’all look so much alike! She’s your twin!”

“She really look like all of them Kandi, Todd and Riley and Ace 😂 all in one 😍😍”

Burruss’ initial post comes days after the mother of three shared that Blaze has been learning how to count and recite the alphabet. She said as she uploaded the June 2 clip of the toddler and her brother Ace singing the alphabet song, “My baby girl @blazetucker has been learning her ABC’s & how to count watching all these Youtube videos… These IPads come in handy. 🤣#YoutubeAcademy #18monthsold.”

Blaze’s latest milestone is one of many she’s encountered in the past few months. Last September, Burruss showcased the toddler’s biggest milestone yet — taking her first steps. The reality star captioned the clip, “She did it! @blazetucker took her first couple of steps! She hasn’t even crawled but she decided to walk first. I’m so glad I didn’t miss this moment. I’m smiling from ear to ear right now!” 

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.
