If I was her, I'd be more pissed that nobody makes flesh-colored band-aids for people of color. :silly:

This is a parody site, right?

The singer's tweets have since divided the internet.

As opposed to "partially alienate?"

The singer has also spoken out about what it's like being a "white-passing" black woman, and how she self-identifies.
Did she speak to Shaun King and Rachel Dolezal?

Nothing is as effective as homeopathy.

I'd rather listen to an hour of Abba than an hour of The Beatles.

Some are praising the artist for highlighting an important issue


I never thought about it up until now. LOL

I have traveled to Africa, and stayed hotels there, where the majority of people in the country are black. I actually don't remember, but I don't think that the shampoo was any different there.

Well, I was going to ask the question: Other than packaging, are shampoos for "people of color" any different?

Honest question - I really don't know.
