Chloe Bailey has put her foot on our necks and hasn’t let up.
Her new video, “Treat Me,” is out now — and she announced its arrival with an Instagram post that burned up the timelines of her nearly 5 million followers.
The comments, needless to say, were universally positive, with more than 18,000 comments (as of this writing) calling her everything from “fierce” to “queen.”
But Chloe Bailey is more than just her slammin’ good looks.
As longtime fans of the singer-songwriter — and social media sensation — know, she’s also an actress who has earned roles in shows like Grown-ish.
She also has earned various endorsements from companies like Neutrogena.
And despite her close relationship with her sister — and co-collaborator — Halle, she’s also an independent artist who is a force of nature on her own.
In short, while Chloe Bailey is nothing short of a superstar and a queen, this is only the beginning for this Beyoncé protegée.
And while she breaks the Internet each time she posts something, this isn’t the first time she’s done so — and it certainly won’t be the last.
Let’s take a look at 7 other times Chloe Bailey understood the assignment.
That Time She (And Her Sister) Covered Beyoncé
Let’s go all the way back to 2011 — which seems like a lifetime ago! — when Chloe and her sister, Halle, covered Beyoncé’s classic track, “Best Thing I Never Had.” Their cover was so iconic that they actually got attention from The Queen herself, and were signed to her label two years later.
That Time She Wore A Diamond-Encrusted Wig
Opulence! You own everything, girl! In January 2022, Chloe Bailey took to Instagram to share a photo of herself wearing a wig made of thousands of diamonds. In so doing, she created a sensation — calling to mind visions of Egyptian royalty and modern-day luxury.

That Time She Performed At The VMAs
“Have Mercy,” indeed.
And That Time She Kept It Real About Self-Love — And Self-Consciousness
Chloe Bailey is naturally beautiful — but that doesn’t mean she always loved the reflection in the mirror.
And this process of overcoming imposter syndrome is something she addressed in her hit song, “Have Mercy.”
“It was about me responding to everyone and almost really owning who I am and accepting myself and my body,” she said, according to HelloBeautiful. “The person that I am on the song is where I’m trying to get mentally. The journey of learning to love my body has its highs and lows. Some days I look in the mirror and love what I see and some days, not so much. I’m still learning to love it equally each day. But right now I haven’t mastered it.”
