B.Simone Talks Embracing Her Body After Receiving Negative Comments

B.Simone is shutting down negative remarks made about her body. The social media influencer and comedian has been taking fans on her fitness journey with her fitness Instagram page @bsimonefit and revealed that she has lost a total of 30 pounds. She vulnerably shared photos of her body before getting fit and has also shared motivational videos of herself working out.


In a January post, she revealed a before and after photo and wrote how she was not only able to physically change but mentally change as well. “God is so good 😢 In the left picture not only was I physically bigger, my heart was heavy and it showed in my moodiness and diet. Around this time (In the before picture),” she said.

“I was slowly coming out of a depression and really removing someone out of my life who I thought had my best interest but didn’t. It was a lot but I fought for my happiness. I decided to start this fitness page and hold myself publicly accountable because deep down I really wanted to change.”

She continued, “I wanted to strengthen my mindset and take care of my temple (my body). Now almost a year later I’m 30LBS down and my stress levels have drastically changed. My moodiness is better, my mind is stronger and so is my body. When the mind leads the body will follow. Start with changing your mindset! Working out really changed my life and I can’t wait to see what’s next.”

And while she has received a lot of love and support from her followers, she recently addressed negative comments made about her body shape in her Instagram Story that is no longer available. The video B.Simone was referring to is of her getting ready to perform at a comedy show at the Barclays Center. The camera recorded her from behind as she anxiously waited to take the stage.

“The amount of negative comments on my body type is insane on my last post. I keep deleting them, and of course, I’m not going to respond, but I know what my body looks like. I know my a– is little. I know I ain’t got no hips. I know I got a little belly fat,” she said.

“That is my body and believe me I have more than enough money to change it,” she continued. “I embrace myself. If I don’t like something about myself I change it. Just like I got in the gym for a year and I lost 30 pounds. I can’t grow hips; it just don’t work like that. I can’t grow a bbl a–. It don’t work like that. I’m working with the genetic body that I have, and I love myself.”

She let it be known that words are hurtful but still managed to poke a little fun at herself by referring to her body as a “build-a-bear.”

“I truly love myself, so it doesn’t hurt me to my core. But there are a lot of people out there that it does hurt. So if you don’t have nothing nice to say don’t tear people down because they don’t look like a f–king build-a-bear b–h. Don’t tear people down because it’s not your cup of tea. Just keep scrolling.”

She closed out her video by reiterating that she loves herself and how harmful it is to make those comments for people who may not have the same self-love as she does.

Three Influencers Show Off Their 2022 Holiday Hair Looks Using Their SheaMoisture Faves

This post is in partnership with SheaMoisture.

For Black women, there’s one compliment that will boost our confidence like none other: “Come through hair!” You know the vibe! Walking into a room with folks acknowledging that your hair is laid for the gawds, and the effort that it took to get it there, is a top five feeling. And with the holiday season just weeks away, you’ll be hearing that quite often. Between Thanksgiving gatherings with the family, Friendsgiving, company parties, and Christmas get-togethers, the opportunities to let your hair show up and show out aren’t too far away.

Apart from the holiday stuntin’, the end-of-year slow down is also the perfect opportunity to reevaluate the year your hair has had. Whether you kept it cute with protective braids, went big with blowouts, or let loose with textured twist-outs, this is the perfect time to give your hair the gift of TLC - tender lovin’ curls. Like the weather, our hair goes through seasons and has different needs depending on what we’ve put it through. Perhaps the transition into fall/winter has left your curls a bit parched and in need of some serious hydration. Or maybe your strands could use some restorative conditioning after taking it down from a convenient protective style. No matter what category you fall into, SheaMoisture has hundreds of ways that you can clean, treat and refresh your hair for a healthy shine that will bring you into the new year right. Bring your curls back to life with the nourishing and fragrant Coconut & Hibiscus line. Boosted with natural ingredients such as coconut oil, neem oil, carrot oil, and shea butter, this line is the antidote to reviving thirsty, dehydrated hair. Even better - with SheaMoisture’s custom quiz, you can get a hair analysis that will lead you to the right products for your hair needs. Say hello to sleek edges, and moisturized, stronger strands.

In need of a little hair-spiration? We got you covered! xoNecole and SheaMoisture have teamed up with three natural hair influencers to debut their holiday hair looks. Meet Ambrosia Malbrough, Jasmin Moses, and Daye Covington - beauty bawses who’ve created some incredible holiday looks that are stylish and easy to achieve. They also gave us the scoop on the SheaMoisture products they’re loving right now, as well as their 2023 hair goals.
