HOT NEWS:Angel Reese secures millionaire deal with famous fashion brand
Angel Reese’s year didn’t go as planned, as she suffered a severe fracture in her left wrist and the Chicago Sky didn’t make it to the WNBA Finals. However, her rapid rise as a rookie has placed her among the league’s top players, alongside Caitlin
Clarkand A’ja Wilson.While her fame has brought her sponsorships and partnerships, it was recently revealed that her league earnings alone aren’t enough to cover her rent. She lives in an ultra-luxury apartment at the south of Chicago, paying $8,000 a month.
Fortunately, her financial struggles may soon be over. She recently secured a new collaboration with the popular fashion brand UGG, best known for its sheepskin boots. UGG, founded in 1978 by Australian surfer Brian Smith in Santa Monica, California, has a market value of $24.53 billion. This partnership is expected to boost Reese’s net worth, easing any financial concerns over rent.
The focus of the collaboration is Reese’s Unapologetically Angel podcast. UGG aims to highlight her influence and value as the podcast’s face and host of every episode. Through this deal, Reese continues to secure the income she doesn’t receive solely from her WNBA salary.
Angel Reese, a rising star in her first professional basketball season, has already drawn attention not only for her performance but also for her persona. Embracing her “villain” reputation, Reese’s recent Halloween look left fans buzzing. She posted a series of photos on Instagram dressed as Poison Ivy, a cunning and seductive villain from the Batman series, known for her venomous kiss. For Reese, the costume was fitting-she even attended an Usher concert, where a video captured her playfully interacting with the singer as he held out a cherry. The Sky star’s Halloween was, without a doubt, eventful.
The cost of glamour
But behind the scenes, Reese’s commitment to glamour came at a cost. With Halloween festivities and multiple events lined up, the pressure to change looks, hairstyles, and outfits quickly wore her down. This week alone, Reese donned at least three different wigs, experimenting with colors, cuts, and textures. It seems the effort to maintain her ever-evolving look proved overwhelming.
On Twitter (X), Reese’s exhaustion with her styling routine reached a tipping point, where she sent out a somewhat desperate and humorous plea: “Ok i had 3 different wigs this week and im tireddddd! Who can do some boneless butt length knotless braids in New York? I need 3 people working on my head at once tho cause i hate sitting for braids “
With her request, Reese exposed a glimpse of the unglamorous side of celebrity style maintenance, where hours of sitting for intricate hairstyles can be grueling. Fans quickly reacted, some laughing with her and others sympathizing with the tedious process of wig changes and braiding sessions.
Reese’s post resonated with followers, who eagerly offered suggestions and stylists in New York who might fulfill her “three-person braiding squad” wish. As she continues to tackle both her demanding professional career and the pressures of being a public figure, fans wonder if she’ll find a go-to team that can keep up with her style ambitions-without all the hassle.
For now, Reese’s playful frustrations have added a human touch to her otherwise fierce persona, showing that even “villains” need a break from the glam squad every now and then.
