Model Sofia Richie spoke about racism in the latest issue of Complex magazine. Richie said, “I’m very light, so some people don’t know that I’m black. They say something kind of racist, and I’ll step in and they’ll be like, ‘Oh, well, you’re light’.” The 18-year-old added, “That still doesn’t cut it, buddy. It’s 2016 — you better get your sh*t together before you get slapped out here,” reports People.com.

Celebrities are expected to look good all the time. “Sometimes you just want to walk out of your house and look ugly, get a coffee and wear your sweatpants. Honestly, I might’ve thrown (my outfit) together in 30 seconds. I might’ve slept in that. And, someone’s going to photograph me, and everyone’s going to say I’m a mess or I look depressed, when really I’m just not wearing mascara,” she said.
