While looking at trainers in the video, Bella says: "Sneakers on a man is definitely the first thing I look at, so if you're going to have a dope shoe both guys and girls can wear, come on, matching shoes? That's dope."

Bella spoke about trainers in an viral interview 

When asked what kind of trainers she doesn't like, she continued: "I'm cool with it and I don't mind dirty sneakers but they better be fresh. If homeboy's coming through with these it's quiet for him, but if he comes through with these… homeboy's going to like, get it. I love basketball sneakers and I think they're some of the dopest shoes that Nike has but I've already picked these out… Put these with a black dress… you're going to kill it."

A third person wrote: "I can't sleep cause all I keep thinking about is 'homeboy is gonna like get it' and my skin crawls every time."
