  • You nailed it on the head when you said.."making money off peoples insecurities"

    Yup...this and everything else on the market..

  • Bleach all you want

    Tan all you want

    Just don't be surprised when your doctor says you have skin cancer.

    If you can't love yourself who can you expect to love you?

  • Ana, your skin is perfect. Know this

  • Ana in a tub of baby oil ... Need I go there?

  • this is just becoming a trend in jamaica, but it's been a huge trend in the ME and india!! especially in the in the ME, we've been taught to want to look as pale as the imperialist who ruled over us!!

  • I wanna buy one of those busted tees so I can show everyone how individual I am while looking like everyone else: a yuppie hipster wanker.

  • <3 the bleaching commercial next to the video...

  • @greyshell77 yea some cute chick touched me in bad parts, but that didnt make me mad :P

  • @martianrum ??? "Technically" Stay in school. My response was on-topic. It was just funny/ironic. I stand by the tattoo btw. You are an angry one.... Personally, I don't care if its all white or black. I'm not PC at all! Your projecting because you love to hate. Somebody probably touched you in the bad parts or you lost a fight recently or whatever. Get over it. Yikes.

  • @greyshell77 well technically you had something to say to me no matter what i replied huh? hypocrite. if there all black cool, but all white something is wrong. shut up
