I'm watching Like It Is. Gil Noble is interviewing a brutally honest 16 year old girl named Shakira. They're discussing colorism as it affects her, a self-described "dark skinned" girl.

She grew up feeling ugly.

She is the very hotness.

She said color isn't an issue with her friends but when people first meet her "The first thing they see is I'm dark skinned. The second thing is how I dress. The third thing is what I do."

Never wore her hair natural. Had a jherry curl since she was four and won't wear it natural now because "I wouldn't know what to do with it."
