Another achievement for Priyanka Chopra as she has made her name to the list of 41 women who are featured in Allure Magazine’s Diversity Issue.
The April edition of the magazine features 41 women who topped in their field, "We 41 women of color to tell us the story of their lives through their skin—and skin tone. Because our skin can be both a vulnerability and a defense. But most importantly, it can be a source of celebration."
The list includes Padma Laskhmi, Meghan Markle, Aja Naomi King, Constance Wu, Eva Longoria, Jessica Alba among others. But Priyanka's quote in the magazine attracts everyone's attention, "My skin is as complicated as I am. When I was growing up, I didn’t see anyone on television who looked like me. Initially companies didn’t have colors that matched Asian or Indian skin. Because I’m darker, I had issues as a teenager—society pressure that a girl is prettier if she’s lighter. Pressure exist, and it’s on us to make those pressures not seem important to girls. I’ve achieved what I’ve achieved, and skin color has nothing to do with it—in fact it might have been an asset. I like the color of my skin very much. It’s so primitive to me that people are judged on the basis of the color of their skin. I mean, it’s skin. We all have it."
