Chlöe Lashes Out At DJ Envy On “The Breakfast Club”: Watch

by

The response to Chlöe Bailey’s debut solo album, In Pieces, has likely been far more mixed than the 24-year-old anticipated. Regardless of what critics have had to say, however, she’s carried her head high and performed with all of her might across the country over the past few weeks. She still has a few concerts left, but before taking the stage again, Bailey found time in her busy schedule to appear on The Breakfast Club with hosts Charlamagne and DJ Envy.

Unfortunately for the Atlanta native, she was left feeling fed up with the latter when he didn’t know the names of songs from her new project. “Listen… Come here. Did you download the album?” Bailey asked Envy on air this morning. “I streamed it,” he confirmed. “Ok, so what was your favourite song?” the R&B starlet pushed. After a moment of undeniably awkward silence, she popped off on the media personality. “You keep wanting to throw [Charlamagne] under the bus! Nope, nope. Tell me your favourite song,” Chlöe insisted.

Chlöe Isn’t Here for Disrespect

“I’m a DJ, so I play the record in the club,” Envy explained to his guest. “So, which one?” Bailey asked again, ignoring his attempt to avoid her question. “Which one did you play from ‘In Pieces’? Because ‘Have Mercy’ isn’t on ‘In Pieces,’” the performer continued to call the 45-year-old out while noting that her 2021 single will appear on the album’s upcoming deluxe cut. In wake of the comedic footage circulating online, many social media users are running to stream the multi-talent’s debut solo album. Elsewhere, others have been comparing her to Nicki Minaj for fearlessly calling male media personalities out on their disrespect.

Aside from Envy’s attitude today, many music lovers have also criticized the “For The Night” singer for collaborating with Chris Brown on her project. Regardless of the haters, the two have had each other’s backs over the past few weeks as they focus on their own unique endeavours. Tap into Chlöe’s first appearance on The Breakfast Club below, and tell us if you think DJ Envy’s behaviour was disrespectful in the comments below.

Chloe Bailey Stuns In New Instagram Post

by

Chloe Bailey has had haters extremely pressed recently. She has not been taking any of the negative comments she’s been getting affect her. In fact, every time some sort of negative press happens, Chloe seems to double down on whatever it was she was getting criticized for. Whether that’s for better or worse is yet to be seen. The actress and singer is currently out on tour promoting her new album, and she’s been updating her Instagram pretty regularly as a result. Chloe seems like she’s in a pretty good place, but the road getting here was a little bumpy.

Last year, Chloe first announced that her album was complete via Twitter. Then, earlier this year, she began releasing promotional singles for the album. It was announced that it would be titled In Pieces. In February, she received quite a bit of flack for releasing a song featuring Chris Brown. Fans were quick to call her out for working with a confirmed abuser. This wasn’t the only thing upsetting her supporters, though. They were also taken aback by the singer’s extremely graphic sex scene in the Donald Glover-helmed Amazon series, Swarm. However, Chloe brushed off the criticism in both cases.

Chloe Remains Booked, Busy, And Unbothered

Regardless of the fact that her album did not sell extremely well, Chloe is pushing forward. Her In Pieces tour just kicked off, and it’s already making headlines, if not exactly for the right reasons. On the opening night of her tour, Chloe responded to the hate that she’s been receiving. It was a stronger response than many would have expected. “Make sure y’all are supporting the muthaf*ckin’ album,” the singer said. “F*ck what the f*ck everybody gotta f*ckin’ say, they can kiss my Black *ss. Because I know you guys love me and this is all I need.” She did make sure to thank her fans, though: “Thank you for loving me, thank you for being here, thank you for your energy.”

Chloe’s stunning new Instagram post was just another reminder of her confidence even in trying times. After several very strong responses to criticism, it seems the singer has pivoted. She is now focusing more on her fans, her tour, and promotion. While it’s not good to let undue criticism go unchecked, Chloe will likely benefit from focusing solely on her art. Her comments have not gone over very well with critics. What do you think of Chloe’s new instagram post? Will she fare better just focusing on the good instead of responding to critics? Let us know what you think in the comments!

Chloe And Halle Face Off in Sing-Off

by

Chloe and Halle Bailey are both proving that they are just as potent as solo artists as they are as a duo. Chlöe has battled haters and poor record sales to make waves on her debut tour. Meanwhile, Halle is preparing for her breakout film role, as the May 26 release of The Little Mermaid grows closer.

However, the two sisters took time out of their schedules to appear on That’s My Jam, the musical game show spin-off of The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon. The show’s concept is very simple – celebrity teams face off in a variety of musical challenges with Jimmy Fallon hosting the proceedings. In its second season, the show’s most recent episode pitted the sisters against one another. Chlöe was paired up with Adam Lambert, while Halle joined forces with actor Simu Liu.

Chloe And Halle Take On Breakup Song Medley

The highlight of the episode for many fans was the “Mixtape Medley Showdown”, contested by the two sisters. In the segment, contestants must compete in a jukebox-esque sing-off within a certain genre or musical theme. The chosen “mixtape” was breakup songs and things were off to the races. Chloe opened proceedings with the Destiny Child’s classic Survivor, which Halle countered with Avril Lavigne’s Complicated. The sisters were clearly in high spirits, but it was evident both wanted to win. Chloe’s second song was Dilemma by Nelly ft. Kelly Rowland, which was followed by Halle taking on Carrie Underwood’s Before He Cheats.

With neither sister giving an inch, Chloe gave a fantastic rendition of Fleetwood Mac’s Go Your Own Way before Halle paid homage to the honorary mayor of Tampa with Taylor Swift’s We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together. As things ramped up, Chloe belted out Olivia Rodrigo’s Good 4 You, and Halle closed things out with Since You’ve Been Gone by Kelly Clarkson. In a sweet moment, Chloe joined in to harmonize on the Clarkson banger. Halle and Simu would eventually go on to be named the winners of the episode. However, who do you think won the Mixtape Medley Showdown? Let us know in the comments below.

Chloe X Halle Reunited On ‘That’s My Jam’ To Cover Some Iconic Breakup Anthems

by

Chlöe is keeping busy, as she’s still hot off the release of her solo debut album, In Pieces, and touring North America in support of the album. Equally busy is her sister, Halle Bailey, who is gearing up for the premiere of The Little Mermaid, in which she plays Ariel. But their tight schedules couldn’t stop them from reuniting last night (April 17) on Jimmy Fallon’s That’s My Jam.

During the episode’s “Mixtape Medley Showdown,” the two sang a musical montage of iconic break-up anthems. Chlöe kicked off the challenge with a smooth cover of Destiny’s Child’s “Survivor,” then, on Halle’s turn, she sang Avril Lavigne’s “Complicated.” The two went back and forth singing covers of songs by Kelly Rowland, Carrie Underwood, Fleetwood Mac, Olivia Rodrigo, and more.

Though the two are proving fruitful in their solo endeavors, nothing can break the bonds of sisterhood. Last month, in a campaign for ZyrTec, Halle said that the two are not finished making music together as Chloe X Halle.

“She’s my biggest supporter. I’m her biggest supporter. We’re just really excited to be able to be doing all of this together and for this all to be happening. I’m so proud of her,” said Halle.

24-year-old Chloe Bailey has been facing a ton of flack lately. Not only for collaborating with Chris Brown on her new album, but also for its low first-week sales numbers. During a recent performance on her In Pieces tour, she made it known that she’s heard the haters loud and clear. Still, she plans to keep doing what makes her happy, regardless of anyone else’s opinion. “F**k what the f**k everybody gotta say,” the Atlanta native told her audience last week.

Bailey kicked off the concerts in support of her album in Chicago on April 11. Following that came another show in Detroit two days later. She was expected to cross the border to entertain audiences in Toronto on the 14th. However, she ultimately had to cancel the show. Thankfully, the “Have Mercy” hitmaker isn’t letting that get her down. She seems mighty prepared to put on an iconic performance in Boston tonight (April 17). Earlier this morning, her Instagram feed lit up with a singular black and white image showcasing her bootylicious behind in her stage costume and a pair of fishnet tights.

Chloe Bailey is Killing It on Tour

“See you tonight Boston🎤,” she wrote in the caption, hinting that Massachusetts fans could be in for a great show. Tomorrow night, Bailey is due to take the In Pieces tour to Philadelphia. That will be followed by stops in New York, her hometown, and Houston. The final three concerts are scheduled for Dallas’ House of Blues on the 26th, Sacramento’s Sol Blume on the 30th, and finally, The Novo in Los Angeles on May 3rd. Regardless of what the numbers are saying, the multi-talent has proudly been showing out to sing and dance along to the music she poured her heart into while audiences cheer her on.

Thankfully for those who can’t make it to a concert, Chloe Bailey has been capturing some of her biggest moments on camera for Instagram. Over the past week, we’ve seen her share up close and personal details of her outfits, clips of her on stage, and insight into how she’s feeling. Scroll further to see more of the R&B starlet’s stunning looks from her recent appearances and performances, and revisit her debut solo album, In Pieces, here.

Chlöe Reflected On Touring With Beyoncé Back In 2016 For The ‘Formation World Tour’

by

Chlöe may have asked her estranged lover “How Does It Feel” to lose out on her love in the single. But actress and television host Drew Barrymore is turning the question back on her regarding a very special lady in her life. While out promoting her debut solo album, In Pieces, the singer stopped by Barrymore’s namesake talk show.

With the “Body Do” singer currently on tour, Barrymore wanted to take a trip down memory lane when Chlöe and her sister, Halle Bailey, were featured as guest openers for their mentor Beyoncé’s Euporean leg of the Formation World Tour in 2016.

“Oh my God! I’m so excited,” declared the host as she held hands with the singer. Barrymore went on to talk about first becoming a fan of Chlöe which included the tour appearance. “What was that like,” the host asked.

To that, Chlöe replied, “It was really exciting! And all those people [in the audience]. I was like, ‘We get to perform in front of all those people that came here to see Beyoncé?’ That was pretty cool!”

Later on in the interview, Chlöe acknowledged that despite all that she’s accomplished professionally, at times, she is still harsh on herself. When asked what she does to shake out of those moments, she replied, “So I’ll cry it out first. I’m gonna be honest. I call my God mom, and I call Halle and my siblings and just cry and cry, and they’ll be like, ‘Boss up.’”

She added, “And I’m gonna be honest, when my album came out last week, I never thought the day would come, so when it actually happened, I was like trying to figure out every way in my head to make sure it wasn’t happening, or it was like imposter syndrome, so I keep reciting to myself, ‘I deserve it, I deserve it.’”

Chlöe Was ‘Screaming’ And ‘Crying’ When She Saw Her Sister Halle Bailey In ‘The Little Mermaid’ Trailer

by

Chlöe just unveiled her debut solo album In Pieces and is on an extensive tour to bring the new music to her fans. (She also recently delivered a terrific UPROXX Sessions performance and had her own UPROXX cover story last summer.) Meanwhile, her sister and collaborator Halle Bailey is thriving in the limelight in her role as Ariel in the new The Little Mermaid movie.

In her appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show, Chlöe talked about how happy she was for Halle when she watched the trailer for the movie.

“I was screaming and I was crying,” Chlöe said. “I was just screaming because she is a real-life mermaid, a siren, graceful in all her beauty. And people get to see what I’ve always seen since we were little girls.”

Chlöe also recently said that fans who talk trash about her solo career were never fans in the first place.

“The thing is,” Chlöe began, “the same people who say that weren’t fans of Halle and [me] when we had our Ungodly Hour album out, The Kids Are Alright. So, it’s a bunch of people who are just putting in their two cents now just to really say things. Sis and I, we’ve been underground for a minute and the same people who talk weren’t around then or giving us our props then, and it’s like now they want to talk trash for some reason.”

Chloe Bailey Cried Seeing Sister Halle In “Little Mermaid”

by

Chloe Bailey has been the target of a lot of hate recently. However, she shared a very sweet moment today on The Drew Barrymore Show. The singer was on the show to promote her new album, which has not been doing as well as many had hoped. However, always the positive force, Drew decided to focus on all of the good in Chloe’s life. As such, she asked Chloe about her thoughts on Halle’s part as Ariel in The Little Mermaid.

Chloe told Drew that she was actually in the middle of getting ready when the trailer dropped. She was waiting to get her hair and makeup done for an Oscars afterparty, but she made time to watch her sister. “I was screaming and I was crying,” Chloe said emotionally. “I was just screaming because she is a real-life mermaid, a siren, graceful in all her beauty. And people get to see what I’ve always seen since we were little girls.”

Chloe Has No Time For Haters

Chloe has been hard at work herself recently. In addition to her music, she has still been pursuing her acting career. Her latest role in Donald Glover’s Amazon series, Swarm, got her quite a bit of negative attention. Many thought that a sex scene Chloe took part in was far too explicit. She disagrees. Chloe also played a lead role in the Peacock film Praise This. Her hard work is paying off, it seems, because she’s certainly getting quite a bit of attention.

Regardless of the fact that her album did not sell extremely well, Chloe is pushing forward. Her In Pieces tour just kicked off, and it’s already making headlines, if not exactly for the right reasons. On the opening night of her tour, Chloe responded to the hate that she’s been receiving. “Make sure y’all are supporting the muthaf*ckin’ album,” the singer said. “F*ck what the f*ck everybody gotta f*ckin’ say, they can kiss my Black *ss. Because I know you guys love me and this is all I need.” She did make sure to thank her fans, though: “Thank you for loving me, thank you for being here, thank you for your energy.” What do you think of all the hate Chloe is getting? Is it warranted? Sound off in the comments.

Chloe Claps Back

Chloe Bailey, one half of the R&B sister duo Chloe x Halle, has been making headlines lately.

Chloe Bailey Slams Critics Amid Low Album Sales

by

Chloe Bailey has been the target of vicious social media critique following the release of her album. This week it was revealed that her solo debut, “In Pieces” only brought in 10,000 in sales during its first week. It came in at #119 on the weekly Billboard 200. With features from Chris Brown, Missy Elliott, and Future, the album seemed promising. Critics have not been kind to the pop star and she is finally firing back at her critics. 

During her performance Tuesday night, the Chloe x Halle star stopped her set to speak directly to the audience. The 24-year-old thanked them for their support of her album before going in on everyone who has had something negative to say about her. “F**k what the f**k everybody gotta say,” she said to a cheering crowd. The singer has been gracious up until this point. However, her reaction is warranted. 

Chloe Bailey Has Been Plagued With Criticism Since Going Solo

Aside from her music, the Beyonce protege has been the subject of bullying for her acting roles. She appeared in a sex scene in Amazon’s Swarm alongside Damson Idris. However, she endured the bulk of the backlash. Bailey responded that she was simply doing her job. She has also been accused of dating “Praise This” co-star Quavo simply because they were photographed together on the red carpet. Bailey has since denied this, but rumors continue to plague the young woman. Some have even linked her to rapper Future. 

Many have also taken aim at Beyonce and Bailey’s label for failing to push “In Pieces” more. She is signed to Columbia Records and Parkwood Entertainment, which is led by Mrs. Carter. Many also question why the album appeared rushed. The rollout appeared limited, with only one lead single, “How Does It Feel” alongside Brown. That single didn’t make much noise. If anything, it angered her fanbase, who accused her of working with an abuser. The Guardian says even the impressive features fail to “add much spark.” Rolling Stone referred to it as an “uneven listen.” Bailey recently shared her theory on the backlash. She believes that those coming at her were never fans of Chloe x Halle, so they do not understand the artistry. Either way, it is refreshing to see Bailey pushing through, despite so much hate online.
