Lupita gave a sound and moving speech during the Essence Black Women In Hollywood Luncheon.
She spoke about how she learned to love and appreciate her beautiful Blackness. It was a heartfelt speech, in between the speech she dissed Dencia, if you don't know Dencia goggle 'Whitenicious cream', this is a cream sold by Dencia and it lightens the skin rapidly, in fact it's been tagged a bleaching cream which Dencia refutes and calls it just a toning cream. Lupita mentioned it in her speech. Here is what LUPITA said during her speech:
I want to take this opportunity to talk about beauty. Black beauty. Dark beauty. I received a letter from a girl and I’d like to share just a small part of it with you: "Dear Lupita," it reads, "I think you’re really lucky to be this Black but yet this successful in Hollywood overnight. I was just about to buy Dencia’s Whitenicious cream to lighten my skin when you appeared on the world map and saved me."
My heart bled a little when I read those words.
Guess what? Dencia heard about it and just didn't let go...she fired back with a response that 'Lupita still has colour issues - and that she only dates White men'.
