No Filter: Sixteen Simply Snatched Photos of Niecy Nash, You Are Welcome!

Hello and welcome back to No Filter! Typically, this is the column where I round up the best Instagram content from celesbians and their bisexual and queer pals.

But this week, there was a shift in the cosmos. Niecy Nash came out by announcing that she was freshly married! In honor of this monumental news, I have culled a selection of photos from Niecy’s Instagram, because, well.. Roxane Gay said it best:

Welcome to No Filter, Niecy!

Men started the #blackmanchallenge so let’s do the #blackwomenchallege ❤️🙏🏽 🙌🏽 I am a BLACK WOMAN!…. I build… I do not tear down other BLACK WOMEN!… I have felt the pain of being torn down and I have decided I will be deliberate about building others! If I did not tag you, please don’t be offended! I thought I’d tag a few WOMEN who would do this challenge!! All too often we WOMEN find it easier to criticize each other, instead of building each other up. With all of the negativity going around let’s do something positive! Upload one picture of you and ONLY you. Then tag as many SISTERS to do the same! COPY AND PASTE 🖤 #wearequeens #BLM #wearekings #blackwomen #blackwomenchallenge

HMMMMMMMM maybe there were some hints


Just a few…


Look I am not that being in a cast that includes Sarah Paulson makes a person queer, that is ludicrous.

…but I am not not saying that.


Suddenly I am desolate that none of my headwraps match my masks? What have I been DOING this whole time?


This hair! This leopard print! Don’t think I don’t see the that hint of big ass bangle! I do see it, and I do love it!


What is it like to be THIS fine??

  1. When my friend messaged me about the wedding I sCreAmed and added her to the “list of queer women who should step on me”.

  2. Last week I had no idea who Niecy Nash was and now I feel like l know her. Thank you Christina for this important service.

    And I gasped out loud at the pic of her with short hair.

  3. This made my year. I’ve loved Niecy for years, and it made my little bi heart swell to see that a black icon is queer.

  4. The best thing about Niecy Nash coming out was all of the black queer women on twitter bemoaning “YOU SHOULD HAVE TOLD US. I COULD HAVE HAD A CHANCE!” Lol.
