Serena Williams Firmly Rebukes Accusations About Bleaching Her Skin

Serena Williams firmly shot down rumors about bleaching her skin while discussing her beauty routine during a recent Instagram Live session for her Wyn Beauty brand. The clarification comes after a recent video from her daughter’s school play went viral and sparked all kinds of fan theories.

“And no, for you haters out there, I do not bleach my skin,” she said. “There is a thing called sunlight and in that sunlight, you get different colors. And, if I’m not posting and recorrecting my pictures and posting from my daughter’s– she had a play that I was volunteering on and had stage makeup on. Yes, I’m calling you out on this because it is ridiculous that everyone’s like, ‘Oh, she bleaches her skin.’ I’m a dark Black woman and I love who I am and I love how I look. And, that’s just not my thing. If people do it, that’s their thing and they have every opportunity and they should. I don’t judge. But you guys do. That’s what this world is about and I stay in my lane, the non-judgy one.”
