Well most these black celeb men "in real life" go out and Marry light skin women.  :dead:
Is it colorism or a reflection?

s

Yep I agree. And although I do think colorism exists
I do feel like some darker ppl always have a complaint anytime somebody lighter achieves something

Like Tisha is a damn good actress. It just fit their personalities. Gina was the one who needed a man, Pam was more strong willed. If anything shouldn't that be a compliment :dead:

:plzstop:

Yep. That's why is what cool when girls like Nia Long, Alysia Rogers, and other brown-skinned beauties got their roles.  I can't readily think of an example with a brown girl being the chosen one with a light-skinned sidekick, though.
Nia is a light hue of brown to me
She's definitely low fat caramel color

I almost peed myself @ low fat caramel

I mean.... but the down south is not a reflection on the overall black reality  :dead:
And neither is living in a big city

I get it. But I don't 100% agree on this thread
:udontlookok:


KING BENTLEY.

am mean .... it exists... but we have to be very careful when calling it out by situation

I used to think Beyonce's rise to fame was colorism, until I saw that Kelly don't like to do shit right and heard LaTavia's voice..... they DID sabotage LeToya because she was better than Bey, but I don't think Bey taking off after that was due to colorism.

she was just lighter and better. It happens sometimes

just like I'm sure Lynn Whitfield isn't at home crying because they cast a dark, more rough person for that How to Get Away With Murder

and Tasia won American Idol.... she's dark too
