Whitney Houston was (relatively) dark, how did she make it?

Use white supremacist logic to deny white supremacy, brehs.

It's truly amazing that you had to point this out. OP slow as fukk

 

[Michael's Black Son]

Super talented, but she's probably one of the best examples of an industry plant gone right considering she's related to Cissy Houston and Dionne Warick.

Also, she had Clive Davis backing her from day one. Dude built a team around her, got her the best song writers and even made sure that her ratcheness/drug use (that gets blamed on Bobby) was hidden from the media.

Look at Jazmine Sullivan...she should be way bigger

very interesting point, especially when you compare her to adele

 

[s_smith]

seems like you are still living in stone age

 

[Lewis Black]

Look at Jazmine Sullivan...she should be way bigger

Apart from rihanna and beyonce who are these lightskin women that are making it?

Jazmine Sullivan can sing better and makes better music too

I guess. I don't even know who Jazmine Sullivan is.

 

[ridedolo]

facts. and she also looks better. so really there's only one reason she's nowhere nearly as successful as Adele...

What's the point of this thread? Are you trying to deny that in the entertainment industry of all industries that there isn't a premium placed on lighter skin (especially for women)? Also what the fukk is "relatively dark"? Whitney Huston was brown-skinned.

You have a victims mentality...

Get some self esteem.

You kno what the reason is

Adele doesn't even sing from her diaphragm like a real singer should. That's why her vocal chords are already shot

Why do magazines lighten Black women's skin?

 

[Sonic Boom of the South]

a black man pres of the USA
so using your logic
racism must not exist at all
