Priyanka Chopra Jonas says she was bullied in school because of her skin color.

In an interview with the Associated Press, the actress said,"I was treated differently because I'm brown."

Chopra Jonas previously opened up about using skin lightening cream to Vogue India in 2017 while discussing beauty expectations and ideals she encountered growing up. "When I was an actor, around my early 20s, I did a commercial for a skin-lightening cream," she continued."I was playing that girl with insecurities. And when I saw it, I was like, 'Oh s---. What did I do?' I started talking about being proud of the way I looked. I actually like my skin tone."

Oh god

So

I was bullied because my grades were better. Can I get attention now too?

Who ?

I was bullied in school because of my glasses. Because I was chubby. So what? I did not grow up to have a complex about what some 3rd grader said to me on the playground. Grow up people.

Everyone got bullied in high school for something.

I was bullied for having curly hair. And pimples. And for being all around awkward. GTFO

I was bullied once too. Where’s my hug? 🤗

Everyone gets bullied or picked on for something. Can we get some real news now?

Who?

I was bullied too. Fight back, & get over it.

Some people get bullied because they're fat or short or they have red hair or they don't wear expensive sneakers ... so what ?!!

*correction: the brown kids 🇮🇳🙌🏾💯* it’s crazy, i look forward to my tans westindian

She's a liar. How does she know it was because of skin color?

Nobody cares

Lies and more lies move on old age is a coming 😳

Thank God you're not Nigerian,it would have been worse.

ABC: How can we push division and hate today? Production meeting: I know, we can talk about racism, from 20 years ago, about someone most people won't even recognize

Look who having the last laugh now

Poor her. Everyone, except the “cool” kids, is bullied in elementary and high school.

That is so sad. I look at you and I see a beautiful smiling face. I don’t see color. I see Beauty.

A lot of people were bullied when in school for skin color.(I don't see the news about them.. The common ppl) Just because she is working actress (celebrity) dont popup her bullying as special news. Stop being so cheap to get lame news for the sake of money. BullyingIsBad

She's 36- this is shocking? 🤷 Unfortunate yes, but not surprising?

They do it in Bollywood also

She may have lost that battle but she definitely won the war
