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.
