- Latto said social media trolls have made her feel insecure about her looks.
- "I never thought I looked old until I read it on the internet," the 24-year-old star said.
Latto has opened up on how social media trolls have made her feel insecure about her looks.
In the premiere episode of her Apple Music show "777 Radio," the "Big Energy" rapper told guest Chlöe Bailey that she has seen people online saying she looks like an "old white woman."
"It's all because of social media," Latto said to Bailey. "It just, like you said, heightens your insecurities."
"I never thought I looked old until I read it on the internet," the 24-year-old rapper added. "Now I just think I look like an old white woman."
Bailey told Latto that she has also been led to feel insecure by social media trolls.
The singer and actor said she was targeted online about the way she sat in her chair at last year's VMAs. She explained that she was trying to "just sit and look forward" to avoid comments about her attire because she was wearing a corset, but when she went online, she saw people making lewd comments.
"Next thing you know, I see things going around, 'She looked like she about to have sex with the chair,'" she said.
"I'm like, 'Now, hold on. Wait a minute. I can't just sit down?' I'm like, 'Now, I'm not even gyrating on the chair. I am sitting like this.' I'm sitting like this looking forward."
Elsewhere during Latto and Bailey's chat, Bailey addressed the rumors that she is dating Migos rapper Quavo. She and Quavo both star in the musical comedy "Praise This," which will hit Peacock on April 7.
"The tea was that you was talking to Quavo," Latto said to Bailey.
"Uh oh, well, we doin' a movie together," Bailey responded, adding that Quavo is "a really nice guy" and that she likes "his locs."
"I don't know where that came from," she said.
