Fans swarmed Angel Reese with requests on Monday as she neared five million followers on Instagram. The Chicago Sky star has 4.5 million followers on the social media platform, far more than any player in the league.

Angel Reese asked fans on X what they wanted when she hit five million followers.

Some fans showed love to her and asked her to be happy and do well in life.

"All I want is for you to continue being happy in life Angel and shining in everything that you do 🤍," a fan wrote.
"Girl absolutely nothing we are here to support everything you do that is all we need is just you happy and yourself and being successful," another fan wrote.

Other fans brought Caitlin Clark into the conversation, asking Reese to apologize to the Indiana Fever player.

"An apology to Caitlin Clark," a fan wrote.
"To see you dress like Caitlin!" another fan wrote.

Some fans wanted Reese to invite her LSU teammate Flau'jae Johnson to her podcast.

"We want to see you and Flau'jae on the same podcast thank you 👍🏾," the fan wrote.

Last month, Angel Reese signed a multi-year contract extension with Reebok, which includes a signature shoe deal. Her first signature shoe is set to drop in 2026 and one of the fans requested a teaser.

"Drop a teaser of the Signature Shoe," the fan wrote.

One fan went straight to business and asked Reese to loan them $5,000 for their student loan.

"5k donation to my student loan debt would be amazing," the fan wrote.

WNBA star Angel Reese reveals she lives "a double life"

Angel Reese is not a typical basketball player. As much as she loves to play basketball, Reese shares a passion for fashion. The Chicago Sky star has already collaborated with multiple beauty and fashion brands as she continues to explore her life beyond the boundary of basketball.

Reese said she liked to do things her way even on the basketball court.

"My nails and hair and stuff are always done," she told People in July. "I'm being the girly girl on the court but still having that dog mentality and being able to go out there and compete too."

The Chicago Sky star appeared for the 2024 Met Gala even before she had played a WNBA game. This offseason, she has attended several fashion shows, including one of Victoria's Secret.

Angel Reese told People that she lives a "double life," one on the basketball court and the other off the court.

"I live, I guess, a double life," she said. "Off the court I model, I take pictures, I like to dress up and have fun — and then on the court, I'm about my business." Reese said. "I love to work hard, I love to win. I'm a winner, so whatever it takes to win."

At such a young age Angel Reese has become a fan favorite and a model for several young women. She has just one message for them: a woman can do anything and/also more than one thing at a time.
