Local celeba and TV host Lalla Hirayama reflected on her childhood experience. She spoke of how she battled with bullies, hate and critics from school mate and peeps as a kid.
Taking to social media, she summarized her painful childhood memories which brought her to tears back then on a daily basis.
“I dealt with a lot of bullies as a kid, crying daily, not wanting to go to school. I hated my name. Kids teased me about it constantly.
I had terrible skin, braces and unruly hair. I’m not white, black or coloured. My family is multi-cultural, multi-racial and very ‘different’. I couldn’t fit in no matter how hard I tried.”
Lalla never had the thought that her life was going to amount to such success she’s experiencing now.
“Didn’t think I was good for anything or would result to much.” She added.
