David Becker/Getty Images via ABCFollowing a series of Instagram comments accusing her of looking lighter in recent photos, Kelly Rowland is shutting down rumors that she bleached her skin.
“I am not the one to bleach my skin. Nor do I want to bleach my skin. Nor do I have to bleach my skin,” she says in an Instagram video.
Her followers debated whether or not she’s telling the truth.
One person commented, “I don’t care what anyone says. Kelly skin is about 3 shades lighter. With all due respects. Even with lighting it’s not that deep brown anymore.”
Another person responded, “She made a post just for people like you! So, she’s dark three photos ago, now bc of this one shoot, she’s bleaching? It’s the lighting in the shoot!! Think people!!”
The former Destiny’s Child member insisted, “It’s not for me. So, don’t go saying stupid stuff like that. You ever thought it could be the lighting?”
The Grammy-winner ended her video asserting her blackness. “I am still chocolate. Forever chocolate. Proud to be chocolate.”
