Meet Renee Kujur, a 23-year-old model who hails from Chhattisgarh, India and who’s considered “dark-skinned” in India, reveals that she used to get ridiculed for her darker complexion and was rejected for modeling jobs. When Kujur did book a modeling gig, her photos were often Photoshopped to make her skin tone appear lighter.
However after one of Kujur’s friends noticed that she bore a striking resemblance to Rihanna, she photographed her without changing her skin tone. Kujur reveals that her modeling career then took off after getting compared to Rihanna. .
