What is Beauty??????




Soooooo after watching this, i had to COMPLETELY agree with the last girl speaking!

The "Industry" has all these rules about what's beautiful and why they have it like that, and they know it's the wrong perception but aren't doing anything about it.
If dark skinned women are only seen if they have big hips big booty then what does that tell us? Black women are only beautiful below the belt?? or that they don't have pretty enough faces???

in the clip above you see numerous people saying having a light skin girl takes the viewer on a trip/dreamlike to what they really like! Really??? i don't dream about a light skinned girl!!!! not trying to hate on light skinned girls, because they are beautiful in their own way (as are ALL shades and colours)but when i image the perfect video i see MYSELF COT DAMMIT,lol. I see a dark skinned girl and i see them focusing on HER FACE!! Her beautiful dark chocolate complexion, how when the light hits her skin a beautiful shine appears (you can't get that with any other races). In my 'dream video' I see the artist and the beautiful dark skinned Queen being in love and actually showing affection (you never see a dark skinned girl casted as the 'Main Chick').
But the 'Industry' says Light skinned girls are what people really want to see. The most of only surveyed White and light skinned people.

NOW...if this is such a problem i say the artists and their management NEED to stand up and say something to change these perceptions!! We can talk talk talk but if nothing is being done it's just wasted air!! So artists and their management...I CHALLENGE YOU TO CHANGE AND SHOW THAT BEAUTY COMES IN EVERY COLOUR, SHADES, SHAPES,etc...

This is also the reason i started TORONTO'S CHEERLEADERS. I'm was sick of seeing cliques within the 'Industry' and seeing that people only supported people they personally knew. I was sick of seeing people with talent being pushed to side as people with NO TALENT and $$$ get the spotlight! I want to support all of Toronto art and let the artists that truly have talent that someone is their supporting them to the top and appreciates their gift!! join me on this journey yall! Smile at a stranger and spread love. OPEN YOUR MIND TO ALL BEAUTIFUL THINGS LIFE HAS TO OFFER AND STOP THINKING THINGS SHOULD ONLY BE A CERTAIN WAY...nobody ever wrote a book on how ISH should be, don't think follow but create ur own way lovelies. EVERYONE IS BEAUTIFUL (could be in looks, personality, through their talent)...

Urban Hippie is out!
kisses to all...ANTI-SCREW FACE MOVEMENT!!!!!!

SMILE :)


So seeing how EVERYONE and their mothers was tweetin about the Grammys and all looking forward to Drake's performance only showed me Toronto is able to show love and support one another. Of course we had the selected few that we calling out "dick riders" but we know those r the ones that have lil black hearts and need to let love in (please don't get me started on those people, LOL).

This only motivated me to keep being an advocate of Love! As long as we keep showing the world what beautiful talent we have to offer the more imma be around supporting EACH and EVERYONE of you doing your thing. Even if I don't know you personally I will be reppin you and what you do...Y? Because you deserve to be loved and supported, and if um own people won't do it, who the hell will??????? I'm here for you Toronto, will never turn my back on you! Stay fly and creative :)

Love,
