6. Rihanna
Rihanna recalls growing up in Barbados and facing bullying from other children because of her complexion. The pop icon said, “I was a little confused as a kid because I grew up with my mom, and my mom is black. So I was cultured in a very ‘black’ way. But when I go to school, I’m getting called ‘white.’ They would look at me and would curse me out. I didn’t understand. I just knew I saw people of all different shades and I was light.” Today, Rihanna is one of the biggest names in the entertainment industry and she never lets the “haters” get her down.
