Jhonni Blaze is out here serving body and strength in Ciara’s viral chair challenge, and she’s applying ALL the pressure! The 34-year-old model had fans gagging as she worked a black foldable chair in a black-and-white bikini, holding it down with her legs in the air like nothing. But days after spilling tea about being denied a speaking gig at a middle school (allegedly because of her curves), the internet had a LOT to say, and Jhonni wasn’t here for it!

Jhonni Joins The Chair Challenge
On Friday, April 11, Jhonni joined the celebs flaunting their curves and superhuman strength with the chair challenge. The challenge comes straight from CiCi’s new music video, where she’s lying on the top of a foldable chair in a straight pose. The move was so gag-worthy that everyone from Angela Simmons to Sherri Shepherd has already taken part.
Jhonni has now added her name to the list, and given her background as a professional dancer, she made sure to add her own lil’ spin to it, too. After performing the viral move on the foldable chair, Jhonni dropped down to the floor in a split. Wearing black-and-white heels and a matching bikini with her hair slicked back, Jhonni showed up and SHOWED OUT.
Social Media Reacts To Jhonni’s Take On Ciara’s Challenge
Roomies, y’all were quick to sound off in the comments section, weighing in with your thoughts on her moves to the challenge.

Jhonni Responds To The Criticism
Jhonni ended up hopping into TSR’s comments section herself with a response to those who took issue with her video. The former dancer, seemingly unhappy with reactions to her take, clapped back at the comments about her body.
“Yes I can see it’s because how I’m shaped we all got a dang on past and these artist be nude to y’all like picking with me that’s all,” she wrote. “Lmao crazy af smh.”
But Johnni wasn’t done yet. She wrote another comment explaining why she decided to take part in the challenge to begin with.
“Look I was a creative with mines I seen Angela on the beach then I seen Ciara show a little skin so I said you know what let me just be creative !I’m in a bathing suit for god sake I’m having fun I’m not showing much. Everytime I do something I’m wrong lol y’all kiss my back kitchen lol […] Laugh a little see some positive stuff and stop being so up tight geesh!!!”
Recent Middle School Drama Over Her “Body Shape”
On Friday (April 4), she revealed the school slid into her DMs with an invite, and she was hyped. But the day before, on Thursday (April 3), the principal reportedly pulled the plug. Jhonni wasn’t having it and explained how she’d already bought a ton of stuff for the kids from Walmart.
After some back-and-forth, the school apparently agreed to let her come after hearing about Jhonni’s excitement to speak with the girls. The former ‘Love & Hip Hop’ star was relieved, explaining that although the decision initially upset her, her conduct during the phone call with the school ultimately enabled her to meet the kids.
In a video posted to her Instagram, Jhonni wore a pair of denim overalls, a baseball cap, and a colorful printed shirt as she stacked up on more items from Walmart. She explained how the school had reached out again after hearing about the wonderful things she had planned for the kids. This prompted them to invite her back after all.
Jhonni shared her excitement about meeting the middle schoolers and emphasized the value of self-control. She admitted feeling upset and angry but said handling herself well paved the way for her school visit. “Don’t judge people, and I’m just proud how I responded allowed me to still see the girls,” she added.
Later in the video, Jhonni meets a school official and tearfully expresses gratitude for the chance to connect with the students.
