Beautycon descended upon NYC this weekend and actress Zendaya brought a deep conversation to the beauty space that surpassed highlighter and the latest trends. In conversation with Bozma Saint John , the actress got real about colorism in Hollywood. “I am Hollywood's acceptable version of a Black girl and that has to change. We're vastly too beautiful and too interesting for me to be the only representation of that.” – #Zendaya in conversation with @BadAssBoz at #BeautyconNYC pic.twitter.com/wZaIrJm1Tw — Danielle (@theislandiva) April 22, 2018 When asked by Saint John about diversity in Hollywood, Zendaya leaned back and served Beautycon a sermon they weren’t even prepared for. She said: “The one thing I have noticed is that sometimes those opportunities aren’t there, so we have to make them. Sometimes if the opportunity isn’t there, we will pave the way for our opportunity. And not just the opportunity for myself, but for my entire community. As a black woman, as a light skin Black woman, it’s important that I say, listen, “I am using my privilege and my platform to show you how much beauty there is in the African-American community.” Preach sister. It’s been refreshing to watch how Zendaya continues to grow and evolve, both as an artist and as a woman. In 2014, she was heavily criticized over an Aaliyah casting, with fans and followers pointing out the light skin beauty looks nothing like Aaliyah and is definitely not her complexion. She tweeted, “ I’m just a 17-year-old girl who got cast to play one of her biggest inspirations. ” A week later, it was announced Zendaya had exited the movie and the star didn’t really say much. But while she may have refrained from commenting on race and colorism back then, she had a lot to say Sunday. Watching her in person, I was impressed with the 21-year-old. And while I find the word, “inspiring,” entirely overused, she was just that. Nevertheless, many disagreed, and were angered by the bi-racial beauty’s take on the Black female narrative. Eh…I call bs. She almost always is cast as a racially ambiguous character. Saying she is “Hollywood’s acceptable version of a black girl” is insulting no matter how ‘well intentioned’. I’m tired of this “I’m biracial but I’m always cast as black” narrative. — cryptographer (@CryptoGlamDoll) April 23, 2018 Isn't Zendaya mixed? Shouldn't she be seen as a mixed girl instead of a black girl? I can never understand why mixed people are always seen as just black, to me that means that your heritage is only in Africa and that's untrue. I don't understand the logic — Mariel Patricia (@AnotherCaligula) April 23, 2018 I have to say that I looked at some of my mentions, appalled. I understand that yes, it’s privilege in and of itself for her to be able to have this conversation — she will not lose checks and will still be cast in films. Yes, there are dark skin and even brown skin women in Hollywood that do not get opportunities based on their skin color nor will there commentary grow to this level in under 24 hours. But the fact that she’s even having this conversation, on her platform, when it doesn’t even affect her directly, shows growth and commitment. Reading some of the reactions was proof that, when Willie Lynch created his letter in 1712 , teaching White slave owners how they would control Black slaves with skin tone, bragging this method would last for hundreds of years, he was clearly right. And while I’m proud of Zendaya, it’s disappointing that as a half-Black woman, people are questioning whether she even has a right to speak on colorism. Zendaya is Black AND white, not Black OR white. While she may not move through the world like a dark skin woman, her experienced racism and colorism shouldn’t be lessened or even erased because she has less melanin. In fact, I would go so far as to say that some young stars could learn from Zendaya’s candid comments on race, such as Hollywood “It girl” Yara Shahidi , whose recent comments on colorism missed the mark completely. As my #TeamBeautiful sister Keyaira Kelly wrote, “there is no need to qualify how your privilege is actually not as privilege-y as we think. Just state the issue. Hear the pain.” So for Zendaya to use her platform at Beautycon, in front of hundreds of young women, to highlight a very real problem to a diverse audience, is commendable. In that moment, I felt that Zendaya, though young, and admittedly saying, “I’m only 21, I don’t know everything,” knew enough to amplify the voices of others in her community. In the words of MLK Jr., “No one is free until we are all free.” DON’T MISS: Yara Shahidi, This Is Why Your Response To Colorism On ‘Grown-ish’ Is Problematic Chance The Rapper Criticizes Heineken’ s Latest Ad That Alludes To Colorism Yeezy Season 6 Debuted Like a High-End Instagram Boutique [ione_media_gallery src=”https://hellobeautiful.com” id=”2996327″ overlay=”true”]

I forgot about Nicki Minaj …I wonder if I actively forgot about Nicki Minaj or if I just sort of never gave a fuck about Nicki Minaj and stopped listening to the radio to hear her stupid raps being shoved down my throat like I was part of the #MeToo movement…raped by pop culture I want nothing to do with.. But if you’re looking for your Nicki Minaj update…apparently she still exists, still is trying, has taken her role as Nicki Minaj that she created in acting class seriously…and is still doing it…thank god for that right…what would we do without a fucking hack like this shoving her big fake tits out there to the world…I mean I guess we could turn to instagram and find countless other girls doing the EXACT same thing as her…and they’d be less annoying about it.
PAIGE JIMENEZ is apparently from Master Chef – She’s Naked… I don’t know what that says about her cooking, but I do know when naked we can just order in girl…you don’t need to do that whole getting down in the kitchen and making us all a meal…we can focus on other things…like you being naked… I like this….whoever she is…I’m sold.

They’re the ones on Twitter Facebook and Instagram who actually respond back to their fans.

Karrine Steffans IG: @Karrineandco Source: Brian To / Getty B.K.A. Superhead — Karrine hasn’t shied away from her controversial past. But she’s definitely more careful about what she posts now that she’s a mom. 7. Lark Voorhies IG: @reallarkvoorhies Lark has made more headlines for her antics than her career in recent years. That hasn’t stopped her from posting on the ‘Gram. 8. Tyrin Turner IG: @TyrinTurner Tyrin isn’t a menace anymore. The actor is also a major Hollywood director now. 9. William Allen Young IG: @WilliamAllenYoung Moesha’s dad also has IG. 10. Tatyana Ali IG: @TatyanaAli Ashley Banks is now hot mom, IG age.

The good people at @EATS.CHANNEL produce the last of the content I like to see…of hot chicks being hot…with food…or whatever…the may or may not remind you of the amazing videos that Carl’s Jr used to put together…or that may remind you of Mens Magazines of the 90s….in what you may consider a Dying Art Form….of women based content with women looking hot…for men to watch and celebrate, not because we are perverts…but because women are amazing…we are feminists…we love women…stop making us out to be creeps. Ireland Baldwin is a the daughter of a couple of VERY FAMOUS people, who basically gave her a real challenge to make a name for herself… I had a lot of hope for her when she was just coming up, I really believed she would breaj through and be hot, interesting…but she’s had her struggles…. Her cousin moved in, stole her hype, while this one got big, got dark, got weird…. But today….TODAY…she’s out in these 420 Themed videos looking better than fucking ever, hotter than ever, she looks LEGITIMATELY hot…the way she should look. So there is HOPE FOR HER….keep up the good work IRELAND….I am a believer again….I am won the fuck over again…. So HEAD OVER TO
