Trolls and stans can be the best or worst people to come in contact with online. A sickening trend that started back in July is trolls photoshopping black celebrities with white skin—specifically Rihanna.
In the posts, Twitter users shared various pictures of Rihanna with her skin photoshopped to appear pale. Each one says that the Barbados singer would look "much more pretty" if she were white.

Rihanna isn't the only celebrity to fall victim to this trash trend. Beyoncé has had a few users whitewash her as well.

Rihanna has always been proud to be a black woman, and is very vocal of her Barbadian roots. Back in February, she made that point very clear to anyone who may have had it confused.
After shutting down the foolishness, fans of the singers began to troll, this time using white celebrities to show how ridiculous the trend was.

While Rihanna herself hasn't said anything about the pics, we're sure her answer would be something like this:
Hopefully, this is the last time trolls attempt to make this trend a thing.
