Chloe Bailey, the American singer-songwriter and one-half of Chloe x Halle, has spoken up about the criticism she faces online for posting sexy photos on social media. Bailey shared her thoughts on the matter during an interview with rapper Latto on Apple Music. She said, “A lot of times I’ll be confused, because I’m like the things that I post that people will have the most think pieces about, every girl be posting the same thing.” The 24-year-old added, “And I’m like, ‘Okay so why is it with me a problem? Or when I do it, it’s forced, it’s contrived.”
Bailey believes that people are not used to seeing her in this light, as they have known her since she was 13 years old and had baby locks on YouTube. She said, “It’s like, ‘this has been me.’ When I perform, that’s when I feel the most confident and the most sexy. It’s nothing contrived or forced about it. That’s just passion coming out.” Bailey acknowledged that the criticism does get under her skin at times, but she is happy that people are talking about her.
Bailey also spoke about self-love being the greatest form of love, and any man who enters her life will have to compete with that. She added that she is proud of herself for living out her dreams and performing at the homecoming concert.
Chloe Bailey is a rising star in the music industry and has received critical acclaim for her recent singles, including “Have Mercy” and “Ungodly Hour.”
