Lamiez Holworthy opens up about the saddening part of her childhood.
The DJ reacted to a viral Twitter question that asked people to be honest about how they felt, when they were called “ugly”.
“Be honest… has anyone ever called you ugly? If so how did it make you feel?” reads question.
In response, Lamiez gave an account of how her black colour made her the odd one in the family.
“Yep! Growing up,I was literally the BLACK sheep of my family. Aunts and uncles favoured my lighter skinned cousins. Had strangers ask if I’m adopted coz I don’t look like my mom or siblings. Kids at school too. That my mom can’t be my mom. So yep- most of my life,” she said.
