Clips of B. Simone crying about having to settle for H&M over Bloomingdale’s have the internet (brutally) dragging her from 9-5 amid calls for her to “read the room” and wipe her “table turned” tears. As the controversy ramps up, the Christianly comedienne has yet to speak out; the but the Internet’s got lots to say.

One thing about those tables, they turn! Although B. Simone successfully stays booked and busy, controversy seems to follow her every move, and the Internet eats it up. Now, social media is slamming B. Simone’s admission about her “spiritual battle” with brokeness and seemingly “hating” on her best friend. BOSSIP watched the full podcast episode of Let’s Try This Again that sparked the latest viral backlash to report what went down.
B.Simone and her best friend, Shekaniah Yon, went straight from the 2025 BET Awards to pulling out the podcast mics. Instead of spilling the tea about attending the awards, B. Simone dedicated the episode to “Going Through A Spiritual Battle.” And that’s surprisingly not about her recent turn on the Summer Jam screen for wearing booty shorts in the sanctuary at a church.
During the podcast, Wild ‘N Out alum described God testing her lately while she challenged herself to a water-only fast for 10 days. In addition to resisting partying with the rest of Black Hollywood that night, B. Simone revealed she downsized her lifestyle due to financial struggles. She broke down in tears because her accounts need a building fund these days. For example, she had to walk out of Bloomingdale’s because she only had an H&M budget, as her money is no longer “liquid.”
“Just my finances, like the budgeting. You see how I am. Nitpicking every little thing. I have never been like that. We were in Bloomingdale’s yesterday, and I am like, we have to go to H&M,” she admitted.
Check out B. Simone’s explanation for her money looking funny and why critics are calling it Karma after the flip!
