Jamaican singer Spice, also colloquially known as the "Queen of Dancehall" recently came in support of Junelle Bromfield, a 2021 Tokyo Olympics bronze medalist. This comes after the Jamaican track and field athlete revealed the cyberbullying she had to go through on her social media profiles.

Following this, Spice (originally Grace Latoya Hamilton) took to her official Instagram handle to share a video in which she is seen rhyming her song, Mirror, from the Mirror25 album, which mostly deals with body positivity and skin positivity.

In her caption, Spice had some kind words for Bromfield and also dedicated a song from her album to the 26-year-old track and field athlete. She further wrote in her caption:

"@junellebromfield I love you my, Queen. I’m so proud of you, you are a Super Hero. Black sensation, Admiration, Black Perfection. I want to dedicate my song called “Mirror” from my Album #Mirror25 to you."

Following this story, Junelle Bromfield gracefully reacted to Spice's post on her Instagram story and thanked her for taking a stance over this issue. She wrote in her story:

"Thank you so much for being the voice for not only me but so many black women that don't have the courage or the platform to speak up for themselves. Your inspirational to many @spiceofficial. Definition of strong black woman."
