Before adding: "This New Year's I got shot four times. The night I got shot, under my dress, I was wearing a SKIMS shaping bodysuit. It was so tight on me that it literally kept me from bleeding out.

"I recommend it. I'm definitely gonna buy some more. I mean, I should wear it every day. It's like body armor for women."

Concluding the video, Angelina remarked: "Call it fate or Jesus, but, Imma call it Kim. Imma call it Kim for sure."

As for the shooting, all was explained on a GoFundMe page which read: "Nina was caught amid gunfire on the streets of Westport in Kansas City.

"As shots rang out, Nina and her friends ran for shelter, but Nina was unable to make it. She was struck by no less than three bullets, one of which remains inside of her.

"As the ambulance struggled to get to Nina due to traffic and parked cars on crowded streets, Nina was pushed on the gurney down the street to the ambulance where she was then transported to the hospital to undergo surgery."

In a recent update shared on the fundraising page, Angelina wrote: "I’ve gone through ups and downs as I hopped, scooted, and rolled around everywhere when I couldn’t walk. I continue to have a lot of struggles with my hip ever since the fracture as well as many other pains.

"The bullet still in me causes random pains and honestly I struggle with severe ptsd ever since the shooting. It has made returning to work full time difficult."

Angelina concluded: "Thank you for everyone who’s been there for me during this tragedy in my life."
