WNBA stars Angel Reese and DiJonai Carrington do not appreciate comments from fans about their looks.

Reese completed her rookie season with the Chicago Sky after being drafted No. 7 overall out of LSU. Carrington, meanwhile, is heading into her first season with the Dallas Wings after a trade from the Connecticut Sun.

Both players have participated in 3-on-3 Unrivaled basketball this season, with Reese representing Rose BC and Carrington featuring for Mist BC.

They recently linked up for an episode of the former’s podcast ‘Unapologetically Angel,’ during which they discussed the criticism they were subjected to last season.

“It’s hard, especially as two black women are unapologetic, we’re going to pop our s**t and say what we have to say. And I stand on what we said. I feel like it’s really hard,” Reese said.

“They be real loose at the mouth,” Carrington claimed. “I know they think it’s trolls, but it’s not just trolls. It be people that we see in real life.”

Reese would add that fan comments on her appearance upset her.

“I hate when people say that, ‘Oh she’s too worried about her makeup and her hair and her lashes and her nails and her outfits,’” Reese said.

Carrington said she isn’t all that bothered but “hates” it when people take issue with her blonde hair.

“I hate when people talk about that, like, ‘Why do you have blonde hair?’” she said. “I got black eyebrows. I got black arm hair, black leg hair … and I don’t care. I’m still a natural blonde.”

Do Angel Reese & DiJonai Carrington Try Too Hard To Look Feminine?

The former Tigers star suggested that players like her and Carrington receive criticism for putting too much effort into looking feminine, also knocking back the notion that the WNBA is mostly made up of lesbians who date each other.

“‘I’m not watching that WNBA. Masculine, long shorts, they’re wearing braids. They all like each other. They all date each other.’ That’s not true,” she said with a laugh, given that Carrington is actually dating WNBA player NaLyssa Smith.

Both Angel Reese and DiJonai Carrington got plenty of stick for the rough defense they played on Caitlin Clark in 2024, but they steered clear of mentioning the Indiana Fever star during their chat on said podcast.

VIDEO: Some Dude Just Dropped The Cold Hard Truth On Why All Of These NFL Prospects Are “Dating White Women”

Unless this is your first day in America, then you know race relations in this country dominate just everything, and that includes NBA and NFL drafts

During the most recent NFL Draft in Detroit, social media was buzzing as athletes showed up to the red carpet event with their girlfriends and family. Many of the incoming NFL rookies were African-American and were spotted with white women, which has become the usual theme for years.

The same thing happens with the NBA Draft.

This year, the discourse on the NFL Draft and NBA Draft has gotten even louder as African-American women openly pondered why so many of the players never have a partner that is the same race as them.

One guy on TikTok decided to answer that question by revealing that the vast majority of his division-1 friends in college or headed to the league are dating or married to white women and explained why.

He stated that some of them had told him that their white girlfriend looked up to Taylor Swift while their girlfriend looked up to Megan The Stallion. He then states the guy asks how many white women he has seen doing the Megan Thee Stallion challenge as opposed to Black women.

He then dove into another story of a friend who relayed that his Black girlfriend started to request money from him as soon as she found out about his NIL money. She wanted her hair and nails done. He then added that the Black women would be upset if they went to places like Chipotle, and she demanded steak houses.
