Angel Reese is tired of the public’s misconceptions about her.
One of the viral online discussions surrounding the former LSU star forward, known as the “Bayou Barbie,” is that she is living above her means in Chicago after joking about her rent compared to her starting salary with the Chicago Sky WNBA team.
After making comments about her finances, including from co-host Cam’ron on “It Is What It Is,” Reese clarified that she was joking. She has been financially stable since her time as a student-athlete, earning millions from NIL deals and sponsorships.
Along with her various partnerships and podcast, Reese’s net worth was questioned at ComplexCon, where she revealed that estimates of $2 million were significantly off the mark.
Reese explained that her financial stability extends to her ability to support her family and friends, including being able to retire her mom, pay off mortgages, and provide for those close to her. She emphasized the importance of having a strong support system.
Reese shared that her friends play important roles in her life, with one managing her, another as her stylist, and another as her physical therapist.
