On Monday, June 9, Vibe Magazine’s official X account (formerly Twitter) posted a photo of Yung Miami gracing the red carpet at the 2024 BET Awards. The post quickly went viral, racking up over 6 million views—but not all the attention was positive.
On Tuesday, June 10, an X user with the handle @_KingArii reshared the photo with a harsh critique, writing:
“You can tell she missing that #Diddy money. Toes hanging off her shoes, wig giving beauty supply, dress giving 1999 prom.”
Yung Miami eventually caught wind of the viral comment and clapped back on Instagram, warning critics:
“When I start trolling back it’s gone be an uproar 😮💨 leave me tf alone… And for the record I hate triangle heels because it pushes your feet forward.”
Fans were divided in the comment section, with opinions flying in from all sides:
-
@iamchellz: “She does look a little less… sponsored. 🥹”
-
@bigsexyofficial: “If you know Miami in REAL LIFE you know she’s still having it her way!”
-
@madein_ajaa: “I actually like the dress—it was giving simple, elegant, and soft girl.”
-
@juicybella: “The girl lives her best life quietly—just bought herself a $500,000 car but yet a stranger on the internet calls her broke. You just gotta laugh!”
-
@da_viesha: “This just wasn’t one of her best looks.”
-
@gotdamnjam: “Her toes probably sliding out because her heels are slippery from being moisturized. Happens to me all the time. 😭”
-
@mirandaperpignani: “Definitely thought 90’s prom—glad I’m not the only one.”
-
@axhley_: “Whoever said that probably can’t afford that dress.”
-
@jojanayajtoni: “😂😂😂 Tfse her toe was hanging tho.”
-
@salute_kiddcoop: “Wow, people say anything smh… it don’t even be making sense… it’s free to keep scrolling 😐😩.”
Despite the criticism, Yung Miami made it clear she’s unbothered and not in the mood for online negativity. With her confidence intact, she continues to live life on her own terms—designer heels and all.
