  • "black-ish" star Yara Shahidi is only 18 years old, but Oprah has already praised the young actress for her activism, insisting she'll be president one day. Yara sat down with Ellen to talk about a possible political career, her voting initiative Eighteen x 18, and getting "sister credit" from her younger brother by being in the film "Smallfoot" with LeBron James.

    Young girls around the world, this is someone who you should look-up to and be influenced by instead of Kendall & Kylie. Yara Shahidi is a true definition of success & class.

      No offence, but you don't need to down someone elses shine to uplift another person. All the women you have mentioned in your comment are succesful in their various fields. We should be allowed the chance to celebrate them all. You can't confine all girls into one mould. We are all different and enjoy doing different things and lead different lives. Moral of the story, uplift and celebrate all women of all walks of life.

      Both y’all sound racist. Stop making everything about the amount of blackness a person has or doesn’t have.. Most people nowadays are mixed and not “fully anything.” She’s an amazing woman and shouldn’t be limited to a label as taboo as “skin color.”

      What is your problem? You are all over the comment section getting upset at anyone mentioning her and black together. No one said she was just black just because people are acknowledging her black side. And btw, most African-Americans are mixed with european/native american. The average black american is nearly a quarter white, making her about only 25% less black. And how can she be racially ambiguous when she looks exactly like her mother?
