Did India.Arie Lighten Her Skin?

India.Arie can't help but laugh at the accusations that the R&B singer lightened her skin.
"Personally speaking! I'm happy to say I have NOT BLEACHED my skin LOL! ROTF at the thought," she wrote in response to a publicity photo for her song "Cocoa Butter." In the image, her skin appears significantly lighter than her natural tone.

Arie, who's famous for embracing oneself as is, continued to describe how the lighter skin pictured is a result of "magnificent" lighting and that she loves her brown skin more than ever."Politically speaking, racism/colorism in the black community is a MUUUUUUUCH larger #SongVersation #skinversaton," she continued, adding, "We can disagree ... but watch your tone and you language on my time line."
