Angel Reese will be styling and profiling around Baton Rouge, even more so than normal.
“BIG BODY BENZ BARBIE!” Reese wrote on Twitter, with eyeball, heart, and celebration emojis.
“Why not get a new car when it’s your 21st birthday week??
“Thank you @mercedesbenzbatonrouge for helping me purchase my NEW CAR!! I wouldn’t be the BAYOU BARBIE without @matchpconnect @bayoutraditions #BAYOUBARBIETURNS21 #GODDID.”
Reese drew controversy when she hit Iowa star Caitlin Clark with the John Cena “You can’t see me taunt” as LSU was closing out the Hawkeyes in the national championship game last month.
“I was waiting,” Reese said on ESPN after the game. “Caitlin Clark is a hell of a player for sure, but I don’t take disrespect lightly.
“She disrespected Alexis [Morris] and my girls, South Carolina, they’re my SEC girls too. Y’all not going to disrespect them either.
“I wanted to pick her pocket, but I had a moment at the end of the game, and I was in my bag. I was in my moment.”
Reese also was aghast that first lady Jill Biden floated the idea of inviting Iowa, the loser of the game, to the White House.

“If we were to lose, we would not be getting invited to the White House,” she said. “Remember she made a comment about how both teams should be invited because of sportsmanship. I’m like, ‘Are you saying that because of what I did?’
“Stuff like that bothers me because you are a woman at the end of the day, white, black, Mexican, it doesn’t matter. You’re supposed to be standing behind us before anything.”

Reese eventually conceded that she would go to the White House with her teammates.
The defending champions got even stronger when LSU landed former Louisville star Hailey Van Lith in the transfer portal last week.
