La Toya Jackson is getting a lot of attention lately, and it’s not all good. Recent photos she shared on social media have left many fans concerned due to her noticeably slender appearance.
Last Monday, the 69-year-old singer lit up Instagram with a series of images showing her in a tight-fitting, crimson long-sleeved top, black skinny pants, and gold pointed heels. She topped off her outfit with a stylish chunky chain belt and a bracelet that peeked out from her sleeve.
In the images, her slim physique was even more pronounced when she posed sideways.
She accompanied her photos with a cheerful message: “Happy Monday everyone! Wishing you all a fabulous week! Stay safe, healthy, and sending much love to you all!”
This post didn’t go unnoticed. Many fans flocked to the comments—some celebrated her while others expressed genuine concern over her health. One follower wrote, “She’s always been petite, but now I really worry for her. I hope she’s okay,” while another chimed in, “I’m concerned about how tiny you look!” A third person commented, “Well, this is scary!”
Others highlighted the eyebrows-raising situation surrounding her recent photos. One commenter pointed out, “Do we really have to post something that raises concern without giving insight?”
However, not all the comments were negative. Several fans stood up for La Toya, with one saying, “Latoya’s always been petite, and losing muscle mass is just part of aging.” Another fan urged others to be more compassionate and noted, “Please don’t be harsh. I think Latoya is facing some health issues.”
Another user expressed, “You guys need to be kinder. La Toya is a legend,” while someone else added some encouraging words, saying, “I love you La Toya! Don’t let the hurtful comments bring you down. Focus on what makes you smile!”
Concerns about La Toya’s health have been heightened since she made some vague posts in November from a medical facility. In a video shared on November 7, she said, “Hi everyone, I hope you’re all well. I’m at the doctor’s again, hoping everything turns out okay with all my results.”
Just a few days later, on November 11, she posted another clip where she stated, “Guess where I am this Monday morning? You got it—back at the doc for more check-ups. Bit of a drag, but have a great week!”
Although she’s mentioned these doctor visits, so far, La Toya hasn’t elaborated on what’s happening nor have her reps provided any health updates.
Throughout this time, her family has rallied to support her. Her nephew, Taryll Jackson, and niece, Brandi Jackson, have been leaving encouraging comments under her posts.
Earlier this year, La Toya herself addressed rumors about her slim frame, discussing her strict dietary habits. She explained to the Daily Mail in June, “I strictly eat organic. Everything in my diet revolves around plants.” She emphasized that her meals consist mainly of vegetables like broccoli, kale, cabbage, and rocket, but admitted that she does enjoy chicken from time to time.
