Angela Simmons‘ natural body became the main attraction on Jan. 3 after the reality star uploaded a new vacation video.

In addition to the video, Simmons joined the “I Am Woman” trend. Emmy Meli’s single inspired and lent its name to the social media challenge. This particular movement encourages women to love themselves in any state they are in. Those who participate in the challenge must upload a slideshow that best portrays them in the song’s first verse.  

Meli’s lyric from “I Am Woman” reads, “I am woman, I am fearless. I am sexy. I’m divine. I’m unbeatable. I’m creative. Honey, you can get in line. I am feminine, I am masculine. I am anything I want. I can teach you. I can love you If you got it going on.” This trend first began in October and has since garnered millions of views. 

Simmons reiterated the song’s message by captioning her post, “I am WOMAN.” As fans began to view Simmons’ upload, many praised the star for embracing her natural body. A social media user even called the mother of one an inspiration. 

“Yesss, show the skinny women, that curvy women look good as well.”

“I love you and how confident you are in your own skin…. stay true to yourself and natural…. you inspire me in many ways…”

“Real body ody!!!!!! Yesssssssss I love it!!!! I love that your putting the message out there for women to love the body their in and if you want to change it…….EXERCISE!!!! Versus just jumping right on the table.”

“Keep showing them what a real body looks like. Never change a thing you’re perfect.”

“We loving on all natural bodies in 2022 be it small, medium or large so long as it is natural…And Angela I can’t think of a more beautiful black woman like yourself to help represent this.”

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

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 in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones 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.
