Angela Simmons is standing by her choice of accessory that complemented her dress at the BET Awards.
During the recent 2024 BET Awards, the red carpet saw a showcase of unique and captivating looks, with one celebrity having a standout outfit. Angela Simmons made a statement at the event in a striking green strapless dress paired with a purse shaped like a handgun. This choice sparked controversy on social media, as many criticized Angela for her accessory, particularly given her personal connection to gun violence after the tragic passing of her child’s father in 2018.
Nevertheless, as the evening drew to a close, Angela addressed the controversy surrounding her purse on her Instagram Story, clarifying that the situation was not as serious as some members of the public were portraying it to be.

“I’m not like that, never been like that,” Angela began. “I’m not violent. I’ve obviously been through a lot in my personal life when it comes to gun violence and it’s very personal to me. But, I just liked the bag and I thought it was cool and I thought it was a fashion moment. That was it. I didn’t have any intention of ruffling anyone feathers. I don’t mean no harm. I’m sorry if it bothered anyone.”
She is very insensitive and out of touch. The man she is dating, his brother was just taken out by the use of guns. She is a middle aged woman and should grow up.
