Angel Reese, the Chicago Sky superstar and WNBA All-Star, has had enough of the noise. On the latest episode of her podcast, Unapologetically Angel, Reese didn’t just set the record straight—she torched the entire narrative.
Apparently, some internet detectives with a lot of free time have taken it upon themselves to monitor Reese’s gym attendance. The crime? She doesn’t flood her social media with workout selfies like it’s a Planet Fitness ad campaign. Reese, however, is unapologetic about her priorities—and her double life.
“Why am I the one who has to post gym pics? What about the other 143 women in the WNBA? Nobody’s camping out in their comments asking for squat videos,” Reese quipped, channeling her signature mix of candor and sass.
Her longtime agent, Jeanine Ogbonnaya, joined her for the episode and was quick to point out how absurd the criticisms are. Ogbonnaya referenced a snarky tweet Reese received after defending Travis Hunter’s fiancée, Leanna Lenne, on X (formerly Twitter).
“You literally posted from the gym five hours earlier! What more do these people want? A live feed of you running drills?” Ogbonnaya exclaimed, half-joking but clearly exasperated.
It seems Reese’s “crime” is daring to share posts about her multifaceted life beyond basketball. Whether it’s her fashion endeavors, social justice advocacy, or podcasting gigs, Reese is busy breaking stereotypes and still squeezing in 5 AM workouts like a champ.
A Double Life Worth Living
“I think it’s just because I literally live a double life,” Reese declared, owning the narrative like the queen she is.
And she does. Reese’s schedule could make a CEO cry. Ogbonnaya spilled the tea about Reese calling her to confirm a workout time despite a late-night shoot for an upcoming project.
“She wakes up at 5 AM to hit the gym before these shoots. She knows where her priorities lie,” Ogbonnaya said, shutting down any doubts about Reese’s commitment to her craft.
The duo didn’t just defend Reese’s training regimen—they dismantled the double standard she faces. Ogbonnaya summed it up: “It’s not about your training. It’s because you’re out here showing people you’re more than an athlete, and that scares them.”
Angel Reese vs. The Internet: Round Two
The conversation also touched on Reese’s viral defense of Leanna Lenne, Travis Hunter’s fiancée, after she was roasted for her “lukewarm” reaction to his Heisman Trophy nomination.
“Leave that girl alone and let them be happy, damn!” Reese tweeted, bringing her no-nonsense energy to the digital battlefield.
Of course, Reese’s post sparked yet another wave of unsolicited commentary. Critics were quick to dissect everything from her tweet to her workout habits, proving once again that the internet will never run out of opinions—or irony.
