Even after Beyonce’s recent single Brown Skin Girl, Naomi Campbell speaks on being denied entry in a hotel in South France because of the color of her skin. During her interview with Paris Match Magezine she talks about her situation; however she doesn’t name the hotel, but she says,
“I’ve always wanted people to be treated equally. I was recently in a city in the South of France, where I was invited to participate in an event in a hotel whose name I will not mention. They did not want to let my friend and I in because of the color of my skin. The guy at the entrance pretended that the place was full but he was letting other people in. It is for these kinds of revolting moments that I will continue to speak up and make myself heard.”
Naomi Campbell speaks on diversity and it being around but when she was coming up it did not exist. Let’s not forget during her 2018 CFDA Fashion Icon Award speech, she speaks on people telling her she would not be able to make it or do certain things because of the color of her skin, but look at her now.
