Ari Lennox has gifted fans something to swoon over as she celebrates another year around the sun.

On Tuesday (March 26), the Shea Butter Baby hitmaker delighted fans on Instagram with a series of photos in celebration of her birthday. Donned in a barely-there ensemble made up of a glittering chainmail bikini, bold jewelry and subtle makeup, Ari was clearly feeling herself as she turned 33.

“Happy Birthday beautiful baby [smiley with tongue out emoji],” she captioned the photo carousel.

“I am not a Lesbian, I am not a Lesbian [sigh, heart eyes emoji],” one person confessed, seemingly tempted by the snapshot.

Another social-media user commended the singer for being confident in her own skin, writing: “Her NOT looking like ALL THESE OTHERS makes her so damn fine.”

“Hbd Queen so grateful for your authenticity and voice you are truly refreshing may you get all that you desire and then some [exclamation point, heart, fire emojis],” a third comment reads.

Birthday wishes also flooded in from celebrities, including Karrueche, Jazmine Sullivan, Kandi, Lupe Fiasco and Jermaine Dupri, among others.

The above post came shortly after Lennox was notably snubbed from the recently released Dreamville Festival lineup. Earlier this month, the annual event dropped its official flier across social media and her conspicuous absence from the roster immediately became a topic of discussion.

“To not even have Ari on there…,” one user wrotewhile another added: “This lineup is sooo disappointing, I’m so sad! Making us wait so long and they hyped it up so hard.. where’s Ari? Coco jones, Meg, Brent Faiyaz, Jazmine Sullivan, ice spice, Kendrick, Ciara, Kelly Rowland, H.E.R???? Yall could’ve spiced it up a little more.”

A third person chimed in: “Imma say it, this lineup is horrible. Smh.” Check out some more reactions below.
