Veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeery beautiful, my fellow luhya sister
I'm struggling to find anything ugly in this lady...gosh! She is so pretty and plus size & dark skin looks perfect on her.
I can't either. She is gorgeous. God of heaven people are evil...ngai!
So agree
You have jst spoke ma mind..
@@cillakiarie8380 I think it was jealous.
She's so pretty💋💋💋
The honesty though!
She’s beautiful; Slightly resembles the gorgeous Ghanian actress. What’s her name again? Jackie Appiah.
Yeah
Yes she's beautiful but she doesn't look like our jackie Appiah abeg!
Slightly looks like her hehe.
@@Ayimwaa underline the word almost
True
If you black Cinderella happen to read this message, I an older lady would like to tell you that, you have really surprised me with your level of intelligence and awareness. You speak with clarity and eloquence.
Who agrees with me that body shaming is a bad spirit?
Amen! And it is perpetrated mostly by people who have their own insecurities and self-esteem issues.
Especially when it comes to something you can’t change like complexion
Its a very bad spirit i am currently facing that in my marriage i added weight after i gave birth to my baby 11 month ago i tried all i could to look attractive but my patner is just sideling me, just yesterday he said his ex who is 7 years older than me is looking 5 times younger than me and it yot to me i could not sleep but this videos in tuko keeps me pushing
It is na ishindwe
She is so transparent. I pray for her salvation, complete healing, and restoration in Jesus' Name. Help her Jesus to find her worth and purpose in You alone. Amen. 🙏🏽
Me too amen
Amen
Amen to that
Amen. May God bless her and restore her and use her for His glory.
Amen, Jesus loves her so very much

Wow never judge a book by its cover! She’s intelligent and seems honest.
Very
The honesty in her voice is everything, she is taking responsibility for her mistakes and now; she knows better .....*
My sister and I are look alikes,but am lighter,and she is darker, when we were younger people would favor me more to the point she started saying she wants fair and lovely so she could look like me.....I am older and I saw how much our skin colour difference affected her,so I started calling her chocolate cause she has very smooth skin....now we are older and I know I loooove her color ,her chocolate complexion and her confidence has totally changed,every time someone comes at her,I remind her, your chocolate n no one should tell you otherwise.....the narrative of light skin and dark skin will change if we start to address it from the root.
Watching from Namibia. Over here the government is encouraging us to watch Tuko. You are inspiring.
Your government encouraging you to watch Tuko? You can't be serious 😀😀😀🤔
Are you serious?
No kidding! Could be true, the content here is good, and is watched from all countires in the world even non-English seakers.
Kenya tuko juu hehehe 🇰🇪
It could be true, am a Kenyan living in Namibia and there is a lot to be learnt here if they are willing to learn in all aspects especially hustling, helping/loving one another. It's a young country of a population less than 3 million
I love how fluent she is and her communication skills are top notch.. she is very beautiful. Her skin is so beautiful..
I'll give her credit for how brutally honest and smart she is but it's funny how when things turn sour,these socialites become motivational speakers...but anyway,we take what we can and learn from it
Nothing turned sour, she is honest enough to say she could no longer keep up with fakeness and chasing rich men for money. And she says when it ends you lose it all. Ans condemning prostitution having being there. She is so beautiful, she could also chose to continue with prostitution.
@@KaariMukura That's true.. She is real.
@@KaariMukura 😊that is your opinion and it is ok but most of them tend to come out and talk about their so called 'struggles' when things no longer work in their favor,believe me,when they are in it no one hears their 'intelligent' side sadly but I agree with you,a fake life is not worth living and prostitution is not a lifestyle one should adapt
@@wambuigatiba9878 yes dear. This life is about choices. We really hope when they leave they don't return. And these "rich" lifestyles are giving girls so much pressure out here. Let them take notes.
Dada zetu sasa wasikie haya.
She is extremely intelligent...She has learned from her Mistakes..and will go far in life...
Sadly she died 2 days ago
To be honest you Kenyans are intelligent people... i wish your Country was able to see this and allow you guys to be the attention for all African Countries...From South Africa ❤

I feel like she needed to get this out. Ongea Mamaa yote ikutoke then start afresh. Thank God you have decided to be real and thanks for advising ladies. Tuko Family let's not judge; we all have our stories.
This woman is so beautiful why are they bullying her? Black and beautiful...if you know how beautiful you are, you'd not let anybody make you feel that way.
But she's a bully as well.
Yah, she's really beautiful. She looks like Jackie Appiah
Very beautiful 😍
Shes the bully though
It pains me for an African woman to not feel at home in Africa.
Well Mama... black is royal, black is beautiful and that includes your black too Queen 👸👑❤
Girl you are gorgeous. Trust me, as a dark skinned woman, I know the effects of colorism in Kenya and it sucks but listen, you’re beautiful. Do not lighten your skin.
Hello ,I don't like to admit it, but wish I can get a chance out of Kenya just because of being dark
@@wanenewanene8673 woh! I thought colorism only affected the Somali community more than other communities in Kenya, coz most somali ladies I have seen or know they bleach themselves like shit so to a point that you don’t know who’s born with brown skin or who is bleached. It’s crazy that insecurities is something common among ladies who should have embraced themselves so proudly.
I wish she would talk like this on her platforms when she's calm and collected its fun to listen to her. Her communication skills are on point. Use what you have to make a positive impact you will go far.
I couldn't agree more, she's got the brains she only needs to get herself together,get away from all the drama and she'll be going places!
Media regulators should be ashamed of themselves for not taking this Lady's testimony seriously. Exploiting vulnerable women to glorify violence and negate the pride natural beauty.
They are all the same..
Mimi before I heard her story my first impression was 'Wow she's so beautiful'. Dark skin is beautiful just like chocolate or light skin.
She's so beautiful.
You are so beautiful, keep being positive and forgive your enemies, get the second chance and become the person you have always wanted to be. You are young, intelligent and beautiful, above all God loves you
Double chocolate
@@sussyalum0152 yes double portion of goodness! Dark skinned girls, never feel intimidated. You deserve to be here just like everyone else. Sending you love and light❤️🌟

When majimbo talk of colourism in kenya we say she is pretending but deep within we know she telling the truth
Still can't believe these ladies. I heard that they want to move out of the country to face racism in SA, the EU and the US
It's disgusting, this colourism issue. Dark melanin is really appreciated in Europe. I've met a few racists though, but they are few and far in between, and really ignorant folks who are not exposed, hence racist to blacks. Otherwise, you meet folks completely enamored by melanin, even fascinated. I wish we would shun this in Kenya, and encourage girls to be confident in whatever skin God gave them.
@@carolafricangirl6836 well said 👏
So true
It's a bigger issue is SA.
Kenya's are downplaying this colourism thing which is an elephant in the room.....Lupita was in this country and was denied many opportunities for her skin colour.... there's a big market for cheap bleaching creams this speaks volumes....I'm dark skinned yeah I've been bullied before somehow managed to get over it.....it's not interesting being in a place with your colleagues and being called out by some random guys who are doing casual work calling you blacky and u know it's you being called and they don't call you that with a good intentions
Tse sad sad😪
Dark skin is gorgeous! Don't let weak, colonized minds tell you otherwise!
With a smile, ask them what they gain from calling you that. Maybe their bank accounts receive more credit. People do things because of utter ignorance. That’s probably why they’re casual workers.
Sorry Hilda. Those people are not wise. Didn't know the issue exists. Maybe they are jealous, your skin is glowing and you are geogious ❤️
Oh my!! Kenyans always denying there is colorism. As a darkskinned woman I know first hand there is colorism.
In the rest of the world, socialite means a woman born into a rich family with a priviledge background. In kenya we have our own definition. I totally agree with her on the colorism comments.
This lady is Smart, Honest, Remorseful, Beautiful, Young with much to offer.. Get out n up don't listen to all the noise right or wrong, Everyone has a baggage of fear, some have more damage of insecurity that they project it on u....Christ came not for the saints but sinners like me n u....FOCUS on your revival. U R a GREAT Emerging system.
Beyond all drama am happy you never bleached your skin,,... You look so beautiful evn without that makeup
It’s Lynn’s parting shot for me. She’s an amazing host that remains neutral even in the most controversial interviews. Asking sensitive questions candidly and in a manner that’s not condescending to the interviewee. I think her interviewing skills are too underrated. And Black Cinderella is very beautiful.
You are having self esteem issues
Lynn is grossly under-rated, watch several RUclips hosts and watch her, the professionalism and candor is top notch
Black Cinderella is an African Queen, very beautiful. I think the aspect of bleeching is a clear display of inferiority. Cheers to dark skins who've said no to bleeching
Black Cinderella is beautiful and eloquent. Healing begins from that point of letting go of past hurt , apologizing and amending your life.
A real black Beauty so beautiful indeed and the confidence
The way I love dark skin, I am even feeling like I am not dark enough. I envy her colour. This lady is gorgeous. She just needs to claim it. As ladies we also need to realise that our value is not in our skin colour, body shape nor what we wear. Our value is in the inner pearson, we have to rent our hearts not our garments. I sometimes have to deal with pimples and whenever I buy a cream or soap for treatment I specifically tell them that I do not want anything that will temper with my original colour. I am dark skineed and I love my skin colour so much. The issue of colourism is slowly fading away here in South Africa. Nowadays we see light skin ladies putting on some things to make their skins darker. The tables are turning but no one should be ashamed, harassed nor discriminated because of the skin colour in which they are born in whether dark or light. We were all made fearfully and wonderfully in the likeness of God.
Me too
I can’t imagine Africans calling fellow Africans as black. What else are we? Here in USA it’s used to discriminate against race and I wonder if a real African has any other color than black. We are all BLACK forget about color ya thao it’s only applicable inside the boarders of Africa. Let that sink in!
True Essie
This kills me!! Ati such and such is "black"....lol. We all are, unless someone is of Caucasian descent.
@@missk.2507 in fact we all are very black. Come to western and try saying you’re brown skin… to who?😂
@@essiegikuyuvibeschannelusa7981 it's where I'm at! Even mixed folks are black... i just laugh at the misinformation about skin tones that people have 😂😂.
🤣🤣🤣better tell them my dear. Even kina alehandro that they watch in Citizen TV and enjoy calling them wazungu here in US hata wao huitwa Brown/black. Africans we have a long way to go before just trying to act like wazungu and discriminate a fellow African 😭lts sad. The honest truth is that this girl is super beautiful...
With her eloquence she should become a motivational speaker to young girls
She is a Black Beauty, very intellent, very honest, very eloquent and May God see her through coz she is going far. Very informative video. Thanks Lynn n videograher Eduu....
In deed she is a black beauty. A beautiful African woman.
And black is beautiful !!!
She dropped alot of truth
I seriously wish that Maureen knows how beautiful she is. It's sad that bullying has made her feel ugly to a point, when you Lyn tell her she is gorgeous she hesitantly doubts it. May God help her come through that. You are beautiful Maureen. You should know that you are loved💕💕💕
1. Beauty comes in all shades 2. Young girls, please focus on getting an education...focus on honing in on your craft... So many opportunities in STEM, the arts etc... You can change the world! Don't let petty drama occupy that beautiful mind of yours 🙏
So true ,you have said it.
Thanks 😊

I'm blacker than you and more beautiful ❤️ than anyone,I love myself and won't apply any lightening thing on myself.its all about how we respond to the things around us, otherwise the strongest power comes from within!

I have learned something: bullying is fun when you're bullying others but it's painful when you're the one being bullied.
Yes you are right dear, I personally just realized that I have been complaining about people hurting me not knowing that I am also hurting people. I have changed from being arrogant to being humble and putting God first in everything I do. I am peaceful!

Never bully someone based on their skin tone or their body appearance, we're all awesomely created!!
She is beautiful and really needs to heal. May God locate her, heal and bless her. Love from Namibia
She is so beautiful and genuinely honest and smart. God bless her, I pray someone will give her an opportunity. It hurts to hear her story not to imagine what she has been going through in her just short years. Please pray for her.
This is what happens when a society no longer fears God. We get so exposed to everything the devil uses to bring us down. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.
very true
Amen, be blessed for the point well stated
The greatest lesson I've taken away from this
Amen
Why is no one talking about what a good therapist Lynn would make😭

Am I the only one who thinks the people who were bullying her were jealous?? This lady is a diva. ❣️❣️❣️❣️
She's a dark dindi, a Zulu word for beauty. I grew up in an era where this term of endearment was used to emphasize the beauty of a dark skinned woman. Such a damn shame that dark skin equates ugly nowadays. She is beautiful and I feel sorry that she's experiencing colorism in Africa!
Such a shame
I love her skin colour and maintained it and she is not faking her english..big up😎🥰😇
Maybe hajui English
she's beautiful, intelligent and she's going far...i like her honesty
I didn't even watch the show she is talking about but I am here for her honesty. I am mostly moved by how she is confidently owning where she has been and what she has done.
Please Lynn tell Maureen not to bleach herself. She is beautiful. As they say “black the berry, sweeter the juice.” This is what is going on in western countries and being racist but now Kenyan are copying this western ideas.
She looks like Jackie Appiah
She is wonderful, she only need to heal from her past wounds.
I can advice this girl to fight a winning war.. When she's busy trying to stop bullies, what time will she find the mind to think of how she will educate her girl and move from bed sitter?
She is a bully herself.
"Beauty is the enemy. We try to conquer not feeling beautiful all our lives. It's a battle that can't be won. There's no definition of beauty. The only way to achieve beauty is to feel it from inside without breaking down into individual physical attributes." -Miley Cyrus

Wow😏
Absolutely true
Well said
Maureen you are remorseful about the part you don't like, and you should just have the confidence that you are forgiven by God, line up your life and the life of the people in your life to the truth that God forgives us and each of us bears a past part of which is not right. Blessing...Ada is a blessing. Dark and pretty
That is the spirit of rejection sis it follows just forgive people its them, pray and binde that spirit
I'm surprised at how smart she is. Yaani if she was guided she would bring so much change and impact

Black Cinderella, tafuta degree if you are going the political route
So shocking,I'm listening from Australia,I'm as dark if not darker than you and so proud of it! Own it sis,you look amazing,Shame on the haters
I am equally shocked that there is such vibe floating around. Your skin pigmentation is what it is, own it and live your life to the fullest.
I am honestly amazed she feels low of her complexion. For me, shez just a perfect Queen.
Lyn, I applaud the good job you're doing. You are just a good listener. You got your niche. Keep it up. Be blessed.
It's such a tragedy that someone can doubt such jaw dropping beauty for whatever reason.
May God give her healing ...she needs therapy to let go of all the trauma.
This gal honestly has deep rooted issues that need help both earthy and spiritually. She needs Agape love upon herself and from jamii
I agree, I think it's started long back in her village, but above all hii ya black skin is too deep for her than just meet the eye.
Hapo kwa who doesn't want to be on TV.....
Black is beauty❤️💞
Wapi likes za this beautiful lady
Never boast about or be ashamed of something that you have no control of. Skin colour and physical qualities are some of those things which we contributed nothing to have.
I have never seen a bright socialite like this luhya girl...like zake apewe tafadhali...
Being bullied doesn't justify turning into a bully!
The only thing I can relate to is being treated differently,because you're the darkest child around with long limbs that nobody finds appealing, people who should be affirming to you that you're beautiful regardless of what your skin colour or stature are the one making hurtful comments about how you look and comparing you to your siblings or friends that they find more beautiful.
Sadly bullying can start right in your home from the people who should love you no matter what,thank God I learnt to love myself and I am still learning to fight those voices that spoke words that made me doubt my worth because of how I looked.
I'm grateful because I know how hurtful words can be and for this I will teach my kids better!
Society has very unrealistic beauty standards that should not define anybody!
I think deep down she has self hate and has made bad choices in life. She could have left the show the minute she realized the were bullies but she stayed for revenge now she wants an apology🤔
@@akwity she is looking for pity. After all the hate she transmits
Girl if that's u on ur pfp u look stunning
@@akwity Exactly!
It's sad that reality TV shows use people's insecurities and demons to gain views.
@@Nattieboogie One thing most bullies don't realize is the harm they cause their victims and the people that have to later help them get past the trauma.
I'm glad though she's owned up to the part she played in it, that's a big step.
She got a role in acting because someone realised her talent. Sometimes when we are not reminded how handsome/beautiful we are, there is a chance to develop low self esteem and start hating yourself. Always learn to love yourself the way you are
Black Cinderella is an African Queen, very beautiful. I think the aspect of bleeching is a clear display of inferiority. Cheers to dark skinned women who've said no to bleeching
Black Cinderella, girl, you are extremely beautiful! Let no one tell you otherwise! And thank you for not bleaching your skin baby GIRL! Thank you for representing black queens out here! I'm so proud and look up to you! May you never change your skin tone Please! It's what makes you beautiful
The moment you accept yourself, your mistakes that's the beginning of success and satisfaction,you are on the right truck namesy incase you see this, keep moving

When folks realize that society and the world owes you nothing...absolutely nothing. Just be nice to yourself and others
Hahahaha...I am telling you Dan G....Nobody owes us nothing except ''Love'' for the believers in Christ Jesus of Nazareth and who believe in it anyways...Other than that ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. I super like your comment. God bless you!
The challenge is we have abandoned our nearest families and communities who share a common duty of care together. And have decided to go 'online' or the internet using different platforms to seek validation. We now compare ourselves to people 10,000kms away instead of 10-100Kms, hence comparisons and situational judgement has become meaningless. Even with dating, now a beautiful girl in Luanda can be flown out to Lisbon by a guy and she will now not even consider the men in her neighborhood because of internet...hahahaha its madness. And I am here for it. 🤣
This lady is quite bold and has accepted where she went wrong. She's beautiful and most people with flawless beautiful skin are dark skinned not light. May she grow to become an overcomer in life. Very real.
I thought it’s only here in the US we are judged by the color of our skin. Wow! I am shocked!’ Lady, just know you are beautiful inside and outside. Don’t let anyone put you down just because you are dark skinned.
Her honesty is on another level...She's really educating this crooked generation...

Get in to the entertainment industry, marketing, or any thing that requires you to be visually appealing...truth is in Kenya its harder for a darkskin..I am relatively light, not yellowyellow though... I saw people rejected for nivea because they were dark or had dark sports.
And self acceptance too

Kenyan society confuses me. Plus size ladies get body shamed, and skinny ladies also get body shamed. Ni nini sasa? Light skin is adored And the root of all these preferences, is OUR MEN. And they wonder why we sometimes choose white men.
Not blame men we do things to make other ladies jealous
Exactly our men are full of it am glad travelling around the world has improved my self esteem and I appreciate my dark skin complexion.many times our men have compared me to friends and it used to bother me until I met foreign friends who see this chocolate me as beautiful and am glad I got out of my comfort zone.
@@princessshamim6539 no our men are partly to blame
@@julieokoki9493 You said exactly what my thoughts were. Growing up in Kenya "beautiful" is nothing I associated with myself given my darkskin and tall skinny stature with long legs. I was once in Westy hailed as "miguu refu kama giraffe" everyone cracked up I was so embarrassed. Thank God I have never cared about beauty or lowself esteem as my parents taught us kindness and being good people. So I pride myself in and always focus on being an amazing sister, friend, partner and human to the best of my ability. Fast forward to now me living in Germany, Imagine my surprise coming to Uni expecting to be invisible but am the only black person in my class. Then the compliments, the awe and the "wow you have amazing long legs, You look stunning" even from strangers. P.S. Germans are among the most real people who would not say things just for the sake if they dont meant it.
It is quite sickening to hear Africans ourselves disparage each other for our gorgeous skin colour. Its absolutely absurd cos we should lift and encourage each other. I hope this lady finds healing for the trauma she has endured since it sounds like the dark comments really hurt her.
We might say men this men that but if you succumb to your insecurity kwisha wewe peer pressure will kill you. No one will force you to put on skimpy dresses or makeup.
Women lets create our own wealth, lets start small as we scale, being a socialite is just living a fake life
These women are not socialites....socialites are women with rich husbands or fathers who engage in charitable projects
@@bondiblugirl I like your definition
Oh my God! You've spoken
@@bondiblugirl socialites are usually rich like with money riight? Ama it's me who's wrong? Anyway socialites is a misused name in kenya
Socialites are born from rich families
Finally someone has said it colorism is high in Kenya can we just be proud of our dark skin we're beautiful bleaching makes you toxic utakufa mapema
Lynn is soo amazing, just listen to the beautiful words she shared with Princess. Lynn...makofi yako!!! You are amazing, soo much love
I hated myself being born the only girl in a family of 4 and I'm the dark one I could even cry and ask God why, I even wished that I was a boy , I remember one of my parents told me you not beautiful 😭😭but thank God I'm happy now and proud to be a dark skin lady
You have to repent, for crying God made you dark. When God made man, He said it is beautiful. Hating yourself and claiming to love God, does not make you a child of God. Forget about all your haters and love yourself.
@@leviticusemmanuel4421 Thanks for the advice 😊. You know it sounds different when it's one of your parent making you feel like that

I can understand, just pray over that spirit of rejection, that one of yours has to repent for saying so to you, if not God will hold that person responsible. So as you go a long with life, don't hold to image preferences. God has put us on this earth for a reason, even your parents can't lay that much claim on you, because God said, before he forms you in your mother's womb He knew you. So don't listen to sick minded people like that. Loving and trusting yourself is vital because people will admire you for that. Don't live your life everyday focusing on how you look and hate to appear to be accepted or appreciated when you yourself don't love and appreciate yourself. Be strong in life work hard to reach high goals in life, so that you can be able to provide for yourself and not running after men for all kinds trouble, avoided becoming like this lady.

In Africa I faced similar treatment being a dark skinned girl. Outside of Africa, I now get compliments almost on a daily basis, regarding my melanin and overall beauty, even from total strangers on the streets. Many times I have been amidst light-skinned girls and I get compliments while they don’t. I still can’t figure out why most Africans hate dark skin so much when truly its beautiful. You are beautiful girl ❤️
Africans hate dark skin because of being brainwashed. It's unfortunate and we have to work very hard to overcome it. The same way Africans hate natural hairstyles and locs.
You know it's life. We just never appreciate what we have.
So true. I had to go out of Kenya for people to appreciate me as a woman which is really sad. I had such low self esteem and felt so unpretty and when I went outside Africa and people started complementing me, I was in disbelief. Its so tough being a dark skinned woman in Kenya.
i feel you being dark feels like a curse in Africa
Colorism is still rampant in America especially within black people mostly and the bridge between dark skin and light skin is not as narrow as in African countries
I am dark skinned and I love my skin. not all of us have issues with it. just saying. This only happens to you if your life revolves around everybody's opinion of you.
Tuko wengi weusi ..
And we are OK with it!
This girl is too intelligent. One day she will be great.
