In an interview with EBONY in 2013, Tamar Braxton tried to clear up the nonstop queries about her skin.
“Anybody with skin issues knows that that’s a very sensitive subject,” she said. “And that’s why I’ve never shared that I have Vitiligo, because I do. I’ve always had it, since I was a young girl. It’s not as bad as others because everybody has it differently, but I’ve certainly had mine diagnosed. That’s why I tan. People say, ‘You bleach your skin!’ But I tan just so I can have a better tone on my skin, boo!”
But when that still wasn’t good enough, she shared an image of her hands, discolored from the vitiligo, with the caption “Although I have NOTHING to prove….I have NOTHING to LIE about! #donetalkingaboutthebleachB.S.”
