‘I See Someone Is Putting a Smile on Your Face’: La La Anthony’s Fashion Post Gets Derailed When a Fan Brings Up Her Rumored Boo

La La Anthony has had an eventful couple of weeks, from hosting the Met Gala red carpet to making headlines about her dating life after being linked to her “BMF” co-star Da’Vinchi.

Despite the dating rumors, the 39-year-old kept it business as usual as she shared a new fashion post on May 17.

In the Instagram upload, La La, who wore a cut-out magenta dress with matching high-heeled boots, is seen strutting her stuff up and down the walkway in what appeared to be her home. 

Throughout the video, La La showed off her body by posing in numerous angles as an affirmation track played in the background. It said, “Who told you, you could go outside. Looking as good as you look. Looking all nice and sexy the way you looking going outside. The nerve, the audacity.” 

The track’s words apparently inspired La La that she decided to use it as her caption. She wrote, “The nerve… the audacity.” As fans viewed the actress’ upload, many raved over her latest look. An individual went as far as to compare Anthony to bubble gum. 

“Apply that pressure LA.”

“Looking like bubble gum.”

“Yes ma’am the audacity of that dress….”

“#SNATCHED in all the right places.”

“Stealing the show revery time you walk in the room @lala.”

In addition to the compliments, one Instagram user subtly mentioned La La’s rumored boo Da’Vinchi when bringing up her newfound glow. That person said, “Welp, I see someone putting a smile on your face. You deserve it.”

Dating rumors between La La and Da’Vinchi began circulating online on May 7 after the pair was spotted holding hands at an undisclosed location. 

Previously, La La was married to Carmelo Anthony. The former couple is going through a divorce after the Los Angeles Lakers forward reportedly cheated on her and fathered another child. 

Independent journalism doesn't fund itself.

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.

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.
