Legendary songstress Toni Braxton has never been afraid of baring flesh. But it’s the place and occasion she chose to do so that has X in a shambles.

In a post that has garnered more than a million views in 24 hours, the “Breathe Again” singer wore fishnets the graduation of son, Diezel Braxton, from Howard University in Washington.


Fans taken aback about Braxton’s choice of graduation attire

The seven-time Grammy-winner was cloaked in an all-black-outfit which included a blazer, a bodysuit — with no pants underneath — a black lace skirt, and a black wide-brim hat with a veil.

In the captions of the post for Braxton’s five millions Instagram follower, she penned, “I got the best Mother’s Day gift! My son is officially a HOWARD UNIVERSITY GRADUATE!! I’m so proud of you @diezel.braxton and can’t wait to see all the amazing things you’ll accomplish! YOU DID THAT! 🧡 Proud.”

Fans believe that Braxton stole her son’s shine

Some people quickly jumped into Diezel Braxton’s comments to congratulate his momentous accomplishment while simultaneously condemning his mother’s outfit choice.

“Why did she wear that?” one person asked quizzically, while another inquired, “You would wear sheer with your a–- out at a special moment like that? As a parent? Toni is beautiful we all know that, im just saying not appropriate for a child’s graduation.”

You can almost see the third person jerking his or her head back and saying, “Congratulations to him!!! but girl wtf you got on,” while a fourth added, “I wish my mama would.” 

To be sure, Braxton did have her supporters of her risqué outfit.

“LMAOOO SHE ATE,” said one fan. 

Diezel Braxton informed his followers in April that he got accepted into the British American Drama Academy for the summer intensive program, the same academy the late great Chadwick Boseman attended in 1998.
