Claressa & Remy Ma Show Off Their Moves With Viral Dance
On Thursday, May 29, Remy Ma took to her Instagram Stories, dropping her “Gang Gang” challenge video straight from what appears to be a living room. Sis was giving New York realness in denim jeans, a crisp white top, high-top sneakers, and a fitted cap, shuffling toward the camera with every beat on lock.
And while Remy doesn’t dance often, she made sure to stay on beat and hit those moves as precisely as possible. “Gemini gang gang!” she captioned, letting fans know she’s repping her zodiac squad.
Meanwhile, Claressa had submitted her entry on April 24, posting her own “Gang Gang” challenge in an IG post. The boxing champ was all smiles in a cute pink two-piece outfit and a white fitted hat, giving her best effort to nail the viral moves.
While both queens brought their A-game, fans on X were torn. Some believed Remy’s smoothness took the crown, while others are hyping up Claressa, saying she got the moves AND the man, chile.

Claressa Shuts Down Claims Papoose Helped Her “Glow-Up”
Their participation in the challenge comes after Claressa recently hopped on Instagram Live to address the online shade about her “glow-up.”
Some folks had hopped on the internet, claiming Papoose was behind her transformation after a throwback pic of the Michigan native in her teen years went viral on X (formerly known as Twitter). But what really ruffled the athlete’s feathers was remarks about Pap allegedly styling her, getting her hair done, and getting her new makeup, all because of how good she’s been looking since coupling up with the ‘Where You At’ rapper.
Claressa? Oh, she was NOT feeling the backhanded compliment.
“I’ve been a baddie since my early 20s,” the 30-year-old champ clapped back. “Pap ain’t dressing me or doing my hair. I’ve been a fly bad a** chick since I was 21, stepping on s**t!”
She made it clear her style’s been dressing all kinds of fly for well over a decade now, adding that Papoose was drawn to her because she’s simply that girl. See the video below:
