Blac Chyna took another trip around the sun on Wednesday, May 11, and for the big milestone, she decided to do something noteworthy.
The model is looking to leave the past behind and start a new chapter of faith.
Blac Chyna Gets Born Again On Her 34th Birthday
In an Instagram post to mark the new milestone, Chyna revealed that she has rededicated herself to her faith and is now "born again."
She shared a clip of her being baptized in the pool at her home with a pastor presiding over the ceremony. While dressed in an all-white ensemble, Chyna was dipped into the pool and then brought out, assisted by a man in a white outfit.
The "Grown & Sexy" star was surrounded by many others in white clothes who documented the soul renewing ceremony. Chyna revealed in the accompanying caption, "Born again on my Birthday 🙏🏽 5/11/22 #newbeginnings."
Fans bombarded the socialite celebrating the new achievement. One fan wrote, "God bless you as you endeavor into a new life with Him! 🙌🏾🙏🏾" while another advised, "Sometimes when life gets hectic we run to God but remember to stay committed I’m so happy for you Chyna happy birthday beautiful."
This follower added, "Happy birthday, and may this new rebirth bring you closer to God and all His blessings reign in your life and your children’s life" while another mentioned, "That's big it's never too late."
However, it wasn't all positive vibes in the comments section as some bashed Chyna's baptism as an attention-seeking scheme. Others criticized why she had the ceremony in a pool and not a flowing body of water.
This fan urged, "Just go by your real name cause your stage name can't follow you into your new life" while another asked, "Congratulations 🖤🖤☺️ my only thing is, is it official if it’s done at home in ya pool? 🤔"
Another comment read, "I wonder if she would have Got baptized if she would have won that million dollar lawsuit against the Kardashians just a thought 💭"
The 'Rob & Chyna' Star Slammed The Judge

Chyna's renewed faith comes days after she filed a court document blasting the judge who ruled over her defamation case against the Kardashian-Jenner clan.
As The Blast previously reported, the 34-year-old pointed fingers at Judge Gregory W. Alarcon as the reason she lost the case, saying he harbored "extreme bias" against her and her lawyer.
Chyna described judge Alarcon as "undeniably hostile and extremely biased" towards her and cited an instruction he gave the jury as the tipping point in the case.
Alarcon was responsible for dismissing Chyna's mom Tokyo Toni from the courtroom after he deemed an Instagram Live rant she did as a threat against Kris Jenner and her daughters.
Also, Walter Mosely, the executive producer of “Rob & Chyna, in a separate report claimed that the judge wasn’t a fan of Chyna’s lawyer, Lynne Cianni, and ruled in the favour of the Kardashians.
Despite her claims, the Kardashian-Jenner family lawyer maintains it is all false, dubbing her claims as a “baseless effort to save face after losing at trial.”
The attorney suggested that Chyna had no issues with the judge until he ruled in favour of his clients. He slammed her motion against the judge as "frivolous, dishonest, and deserving of sanctions."
In a recent update shared about the case, TMZ reported that Chyna's motion to dismiss the judge was entirely dismissed as it had no basis.

If Chyna indeed believed judge Alarcon was biased, she should have filed the motion during the trial and he might have been excused. However, now that the trial is over, nothing can be done.
She can only ask for a new trial based on an improper ruling. Unfortunately, that's another loss for "The Real Blac Chyna" star,
