LSU forward Angel Reese’s name is becoming more famous by the day after the christened “Bayou Barbie” led her team to its first Final Four berth since 2008 on Sunday. Unfortunately for her mother, having the same name as her daughter has caused a bit of a mistaken identity when it comes to social media.
The LSU star’s mother took to Twitter on Monday to tell the men who are reaching out to her via direct messages to stop. Apparently, Reese has quite a few admirers online but they aren’t carefully checking which Angel Reese they’re messaging.
“FYI…I am Angel Reese the mom not the LSUwbb player please be mindful when you tag and/or send me DM’s that your intent is to me not my daughter,” she said in the tweet. “I’m getting some crazy dating request from men my kids age who clearly by the content of msg think they’re sending it to Lil A.”
