Princess Shyngle shares her battle with rejection over of her skin colour

November 17,2018
Share:
Actress and model, Princess Shyngle, who is very popular for her curvy hips and tiny waist has revealed one of the major challenges she faced as a greenhorn in the entertainment industry.

According to the Ghana-based Gambian actress, Princess, she was constantly rejected by men and movie producers alike because of her dark complexion and looks.
” I was often told ‘You are too dark for the movie role, you are too dark to date him, you are too dark for this endorsement deal, you are too dark to make it in the industry, you are too dark to be happy, you are black and ugly, no man will ever marry you , your skin disgust me, go bleach you’ll look pretty’.
I’ve seen and heard it all but it never moved me, instead it makes me prouder of my skin . I want my black queens out there to be proud of their skin color, never allow anyone or society try to bring you down, your black skin is your crown wear it like the queen you are and conquer the world. The darker the berry , the sweeter the juice . I love my black skin,” she revealed.

Also recalling her recent embarrassing moment, the controversial movie star narrated her encounter with a man she had been crushing on.
“There was this very fine guy hitting on me and I really like him. Because he has all the qualities I’m looking for in a man. So, I went out with him on a date and I had to ask if he has a girlfriend. His answer was yes he has a girlfriend but they’re about to break u I didn’t really know what that meant. When a guy says he has a girlfriend but they’re about to breakup, should one be happy about it or…? Well, it really got me confused.”
