Rihanna: Trendsetting Style at Fashion Week

As far as Rihanna bleaching her skin...it seems like just another hating remark from someone who obviously envies her. It's too mush negativity surrounding her that it must be stemmed from jealousy. I don't see why anyone would say such harsh, invalis, unproven statements about someone they've never even met before, let alone know. I think we all need to take a look at some of the posts from women who were born on the islands. All of their stories are similiar, obviously the harsh flaming sun can cause major tanning...duh....and when removed from the region, your skin reflects a ligher skin tone because it is not subjected to the beaming hotttt sun everyday. Just like when you go down south for summer vacation and return home up north at the end of the summer...you may find that your skin has returned back to its original color before you tanned. My black people...my black people...we got to do better than this!!!! Stop with hatred

Why does everyone hate Rihanna so much these days??? I truly think people are jealous of her. They wish they had Chris Brown, gorgeous looks, and tons of money and fame. But unfortuantely they do not, so instead they spew ignorant comments like "men only beat women who don't respect themselves". That is the most idiotic comment I have heard thus far in all my life. Who rasied you child????....a crackhead. And for all these ignorant black women commenting on her getting abused as if she deserved it, you need to sit on someone's red sofa and get counseling. Rihanna you look damn good girl!!!! And I applaud you for being strong and telling the world your side of the story...God Bless black people. We got to do better than this for real.

If you had marks and bruises on your face from getting beat, then you might just need to do a little bleaching in order to get rid of the scars. A lot of Black women use bleaching creams to get rid of skin discolorations and scars, and getting lighter than you actually are is mostly an unwanted side effect. Besides, those creams stay on beauty supply shelves because people keep buying them; they're not sitting there collecting dust. Who's buying them, is it YOU!

Are you serious? 11 pages talking about Rhianna? 10 of them probably negative. Not a one of you have held a conversation with her so STFU!

i dont think Rihanna bleaches her skin at all, I still like her but I think she was real dum for letting America know what happened to her, So who cares, Some woman go through that everyday. The woman who get beat on wants to get beat, Women who acts like a woman and shows that she has respect for her self wont get beat. Males just cant see there self beating on A Lady thats has respect for there self, But if you act like a man then you Will get beat like one.

My mother is from Jamaica and my father is from Barbados. Our heritage means that in both of these countries and all over the caribbean you get black people that range from a skin tone lighter than Rihanna to those of an ebony complexion. When you live in the caribbean your skin tone gets to a stage when it will not get any darker but when you leave the caribbean and move to a colder country your skin turns lighter. Rihanna does not bleach her skin. She's just a light skin Caribbean girl that has been spending less time in the hot caribbean sun and more time in colder climates.
