Actress Trina McGee is well known for her role on the ABC-TV sitcom “Boy Meets World,” the coming-of-age sitcom where her character, Angela Moore, represented for the chocolate sisters. She’s obviously gone through a major transformation and if the actress is brought back for the “Boy Meets World” spinoff recently green-lighted by Disney, she definitely won’t stand out from the predominantly white cast.
Trina denies she’s done anything to alter her blackness, and took to Twitter to calm down shocked fans after her makeover was revealed at the “Boy Meets World” reunion. “Black does not crack. The new look is still 100% ME,” she tweeted. “No work done, just taking care of my mind, body and soul.”
Yeah…that cleared things up.
South Africa is marketed to the world as a rainbow nation, where everyone is proud of their race and heritage. But for some black South Africans, there is such a thing as being too black. Local musician Nomasonto ‘Mshoza’ Mnisi, now several shades lighter, says her new skin makes her feel more beautiful and confident. “I’ve been black and dark-skinned for many years, I wanted to see the other side. I wanted to see what it would be like to be white and I’m happy,” Mshoza says.
