Nobody does the thrill of the double life like Angel Reese. The latest issue revealed the basketball star as Vogue’s cover star. Amidst the accomplishment, Reese’s close acquaintance ‘granny’ Kahleah Copper had some teasing to add to it.

The Vogue cover is glamorously not Reese’s first stint in the fashion world. The Chicago Sky star naturally turned heads with the several outfits she donned for the magazine, including the stunning cover page affair in red. Sporting different outfits, the Unrivaled Basketball League shared Reese’s shots wearing staples including a Jacquemus suit and a Stella McCartney dress.

Copper reposted it on X, hyping up her ‘grandbaby’ Angel Reese. The WNBA fans quickly joked that the athletes would likely stick with it for a long time.

Both Copper and Reese are grouped as teammates in the Rose Club in the Unrivaled League. In just a short amount of time, the two seem to have grown quite a colloquial association, if the internet trolling is any evidence. The former’s comment on Reese’s Vogue issue came from a recurring joke the two seem to have developed.

It all started a couple of days back when Reese asked Copper to be in a TikTok, getting an excuse from the latter-mentioned athlete. Wanting to be behind the camera, Copper got the nickname ‘grandma’ from the Sky star.

Reese’s cover page surprise comes amid the ongoing criticisms the WNBA star had been receiving for her recent post on Instagram. The said upload featured a picture of Reese in her New Year’s Eve dress that hung low till her midriff was pulled together by a thin piece of thread. The fit, as stunning as it was, quickly drew in backlash from users who called it inappropriate. Consequently, Reese deactivated her Instagram handle for reasons unknown.

Angel Reese makes admissions about carrying both basketball and fashion

For the winter issue, Angel Reese sat down to chat with Vogue’s Maya Singer. The athlete opened up about balancing her love for basketball and fashion. Dating back to her childhood, Reese admitted it was never one over the other.

Reese recalled spending time in her mom’s closet looking out for things. Additionally, the WNBA star shared her deep inclination toward feeling and looking presentable. Reese expressed wanting to get her hair done and carry bags, and that hasn’t changed to date.

Not only that, Reese also aspired to become America’s Next Top Model.
