The Atlanta R&B star's hourglass figure looks on point in her latest Instagram uploads.

Despite their massive bank accounts, many celebrities often get caught for photoshopping faux pas on social media. Rather than hiring a professional, many will FaceTune images themselves. Usually, this promptly lands them a spot as the internet's laughing stock for that day. Earlier this weekend, Chloe Bailey made it clear that she's not one to alter her uploads after a fan called out her obviously snatched waist.

The speculation began after the Atlanta-born artist posted on Friday (February 17). She was wearing a skin-tight blue and white sporty outfit for a performance. "Put me on the team coach. #AllStar," she wrote in the caption, referencing yesterday's celebrity game. While her body has often gets praise for its bodacious shape, many are taking notice that Bailey looks particularly thin around her midsection.

"Is this real or photoshop?" one person wrote in the comments with a series of eye-roll emojis. A more positive criticism reads, "I love you girl, but the photoshop is too much here. Your body is amazing without it. This doesn't look real." Rather than lash out in response to the trolls, Bailey took the response as a compliment.

The "Do It" songstress replied, "I love you too. It's the combo of a corset, latex, and the lower angle. I love my body when I have extra weight on me. I love my body when I get snatched because I'm dancing a lot." She went on to note that the videos included later in the post match the photos. This seemingly proves that nothing has been altered on her end.

"Y'know I love editing but I've been working hard on my body," she explained. "I take that as a compliment, thank you." Many have since praised Bailey for her handling of the hate, also going on to celebrate the time she's been putting in to achieve her physical goals.

Elsewhere in the news, the 24-year-old is facing backlash for her decision to release a single with Chris Brown. The R&B star's allegations from various women have led many to cancel him over the years though he still maintains an impressive roster of collaborators.
